Magic Sound - Time
Edition Hawara’s second 7“ release features one of the more obscure Austrian bands from the 1980s. Little is known about
Magic Sound. The cover suggests that their label wanted them to be Austria’s Village People, though their sound is much
rawer and funkier. One thing we know for sure is that the group included Andy Töfferl, who was also a member of the
famous Austrian pop ensemble EAV (Erste Allgemeine Verunsicherung). And we know that they went to the studio to record
a whole album after touring Sweden in 1980.
Only these two songs survived, and they are worth listening to over and over again. Enjoy in fancy dress, or dressed down.
With or without a moustache.

She And The Band - Too Much Too Soon
The Other Sound of Music is Edition Hawara’s first compilation of forgotten Austrian treasures from the 1980s. Plucked from dusty basements, flea markets and bespoke stores across the small Alpine country, it features eight quirky and charming pieces that afford a glimpse into largely unknown but surprisingly rich musical subcultures. The lovingly curated selection brings to light early soul, boogie and proto-house productions, as well as some of the most balearic tracks that have ever been made in a landlocked country. Finally giving this music the stage it deserves, The Other Sound of Music is the definitive guide to the outer limits of the Austrian underground.

Miss D. - Moving (Do It Again - Mix)
Miss D used to work as a model in New York. That she ended up in Vienna was sheer coincidence. That she became a recording artist was never planned, either. She moved to the Austrian capital with a well-known commercial producer in the mid-1980s, and soon she found herself recording TV ads for ice cream manufacturers.
One day in the recording studio, someone had the brilliant idea of making a proper record with her. The outcome was the highly sought-after disco oddity "Moving", most copies of which were destroyed due to a lack of commercial success.
Now getting a second chance, "Moving" is as strong as Austrian disco productions from that era come: slow, bouncy, full of personality and consistently surprising. So, three cheers to coincidences and random ideas in recording studios. This is a most memorable 7".

Zenit - No Title
Zenit is a jazz ensemble from Krems in Lower Austria, founded in 1976 by Hannes Treiber and Willi Langer. Their music
was celebrated locally, but to reduce them to their local fame would be misleading:
After all, their first two LPs, Stimmungswechsel (Change of Moods) and Früchte (Fruits), quickly gained them a much wider
audience of discerning listeners. Arguably, however, Zenit’s third and final LP Straight Ahead is the most special of their
records. It initially came out in 1986 on the producers label Spray Records, and is today one of the hardest-to-find Austrian
jazz records. Its centrepiece is the infectious slow-motion disco piece “Waiting,” with vocals by American jazz singer Linda
Sharrock. Effortlessly bringing together pop, soul and new age vibes, this is a record that is as unique as it is difficult to
date. Does it sound like from the 80s?
We’re not sure. To our minds at least, it could also be from the future.

Robert Ponger is perhaps best known as the producer for Austria’s biggest pop sensation Falco. His unparalleled
production skills are on full display in the iconic hit single “Der Kommissar”, and he is also the main man behind Falco’s
legendary early albums “Einzelhaft” and “Junge Römer”.
But Ponger deserves at least as much credit for his solo recordings. The most sought-after of these is Ponger’s 1979 selftitled
LP, which Edition Hawara is honoured to re-issue. The album contains twelve disco-inspired pieces that are
unabashedly playful, but also signal serious musical knowledge and finesse. Recorded in the vicinity of Mistelbach, a village
even locals struggle to find on a map, Ponger’s LP breathes the vibe of Studio 54 – with the little special extra that only
Mistelbach can add. A true Austrian classic.

The Word - The Word
The Word is one of the better-kept secrets of 1980s Austrian disco music. Yet once you put the needle on this record, you
notice that it sounds oddly familiar. The awe-inspiring signature piece “Lobster” has the same analogue, slow-moving
aesthetic as Zenit’s timeless “Waiting” that was featured on Edition Hawara’s first release.
The same goes for the three other wonderfully unconventional, proto-electronic songs: “Easy”, “All My Life” and the
eponymous “The Word”. And there are even more commonalities with Zenit’s LP: The vocals are Linda Sharrock’s, who
here teamed up with Karl “Charly” Ratzer and Peter Ponger, the twin brother of legendary Falco producer Robert Ponger.
The result of this collaboration is, well, also quite legendary. How this kind of sound emerged in Vienna in 1984 is still a bit
of a mystery, but clearly all the stars were aligned when Sharrock, Ratzer and Ponger were jamming in the studio. We are
very proud to share this secret with you.
Just as there are very few lobsters in landlocked Vienna, there are very few records like this out there.

Chris - San Francisco Night (Instrumental)
Edition Hawara’s third 7“ release is a slow-moving synth gem from 1983. Its producer, Chris Duchatschek or just “Chris”, is hardly a household name in Austrian pop music. But Duchatschek was not only an early member of Drahdiwaberl, the legendary anarchist band that was headed by Falco before his global breakthrough.
He also produced a string of almost-forgotten hits, not least José Feliciano’s “The Sound of Vienna”. “San Francisco Night” is one of Duchatschek’s few solo productions. It’s the soundtrack for a party in a dark, smoke-filled basement in early 1980s Vienna, but it should work just fine in today’s smoke-free basements too. Or in your living room, as long as you turn the lights off.

Short info:
Searchlight Moonbeam is the new narrative compilation from Time Is Away (Jack Rollo and Elaine Tierney) whose eponymous monthly NTS Radio shows, tinctured fusions of fugitive sounds and reverie-inducing archival speech, have won them an ardent following. It follows from the London-based duo’s Ballads, a remarkable driftwerk released on A Colourful Storm in 2022.
Searchlight Moonbeam is an autumnal dreamscape, intimate and vespertine, pensive and irresolute. An imagined community where differences drop off and resonances emerge – between Maher Shalal Hash Baz affiliates Kasumi Trio, Taiwanese score composer Chen Ming Chang whose ‘Rainwater’ (written for Hou Hsiao-Hsien’s 1986 film Dust In The Wind) is exquisitely heartbroken, and the plangent improvisations of self-taught French pianist Delphine Dora.
Revelations are frequent: the bedsit isolationism of Bo Harwood and John Cassavetes’ ‘No One Around to Hear It’ (from The Killing of a Chinese Bookie); the narked minimalism of Klang (an early 2000s band formed by ex-Elastica guitarist and featuring prize-winning experimental novelist Isabel Waidner on bass); the etude-grooves and echoic wobble of below-the-radar French avant-gardists Omertà ; the beautiful, plaintively dubby ‘Is It You?’ by Slapp Happy; a psych-tinged reimagining of PiL’s ‘Poptones’ by Simon Fisher Turner (one half of Deux Filles, and here, recording for él as The King of Luxembourg) that's as perverse as the cover of Throbbing Gristle’s 20 Jazz Funk Greats.
Searchlight Moonbeam is the musical analog of an Italo Calvino novel or a medieval fable. Associative, intuitive, borderless. Emotional and mysterious. Endowed with the tactility of Braille. A private language that is both unknowable and understood. It is a record of the seasons, for the seasons.
2023 marks the tenth anniversary of Time Is Away’s first broadcast. Featuring an evocative essay by writer Jeremy Atherton Lin and disarming cover art by Penny Davenport, Searchlight Moonbeam showcases Rollo and Tierney’s still-unrivalled talent for gloaming melodies, disques du crépuscule, ensorcelled storytelling.

Kalahari Surfers - Perpetual Emotion
South African Warrick Sony is a ground breaking composer who was behind the Kalahari Surfers project which now gets a vital spotlight courtesy of Emotional Rescue. This compilation shows how effortlessly eclectic his sound was - from jive rhythms to jazz, tabla to political speeches and much more in between. A Hindu pacifist who was once conscripted into the South African Defense Force, he founded this group as a way out getting his ides out there, calling on other musicians as and when he needed them. It was the first radical white anti-apartheid pop in South Africa and as this vital collection shows it explored polyrhythms, slow motorik, dub sound collage and even a goofy cover of Nancy Sinatra.
