Rodion -Musical magic unearthed in romania: the journey of rodion g.a.

The full story of Romanian genius Rodion Ladislau Ro?ca and the music he recorded as Rodion G.A. involves the stifling artistic climate of Communist Romania in the early 80s, the ingenuity of amateur recording, obsessive record collecting, early synthesizers, unheard archival recordings, and eventual recognition. Basically the kinds of things that make our heart beat faster! A more comprehensive version of Rodion’s history can be read here, but a listen to the music alone should be enough to make it clear that there’s something special to what Rodion has created.

The Lost Tapes, the first ever commercially released album of Rodion G.A.’s music, is due May 27th on Strut Records in association with Future Nuggets and Ambassadors Reception. Full details here.
