Welcome to the second season of the Coffee Break Sessions! This is the second episode of the new season. Today, I'm playing some reissues of experimental, soundtrack and library music from Italy. Library music is a sort of generic soundtrack music with jazz, psych, funk, and ambient elements. It's not intended for mass commercial release and it has no causal audience because of its format and function. It's for films and TV so that the TV network can contact a music library label for a theme or tonal ambiance. Despite all that, library music takes weird and fantastic detours. There are garish drum machines, seedy guitars, synthesizers gone haywire, and fractious brass sections. Perhaps the lack of an audience to please gave composers the latitude to experiment. Nowadays there are some reissues from labels like Sonor Music Editions and Four Flies Records, many gems remain inaccessible to everyone except Milanese crate diggers and members of the most privileged file-sharing circles.

It's fun how some of these tracks belonged to Italian erotic-comedy movies of the 70s's and are now seen as ambient/library music.
Presumably the fact that they're library music is how they ended up in said movies, but yeah, it's funny how what you call something affects it's cache... >_
Some of the songs definitely have a "commedia sexy" kinda vibe! Love it
seriosly? :D cool comment. btw I find them more erotic than library like :D Lol tks for the clarification

Those have the be the most music-cultured plants in the world.
Italia is a racist country
I read multi cultured plants like huh?
Happy little plants they are
As an Italian this mix made me so happy, you are truly a hidden gem of CZcams, love from Italy 🇮🇹
So grateful for your channel! I’m a 72 years young, female, jazz musician/composer and singer. So wonderful to hear you passing this life-giving elixir to everyone. Thank you!!
@@jonathancorbett7882 Creation is amazing, though Curation shouldn't be ignored. The artist are amazing and deserve props, though I think what this channel excels in is diversifying peoples taste. The purpose of this channel is to celebrate these artist and share not just this music, but music from throughout the world and time.
If you can honestly say there's no difference between the selection of mixes provided here, and those on your local radio you either live in a city with a great station, or are ignoring the effort taken to select, source and present the work in such a beautiful way. Doing that while providing the sources as well for people who want to go deeper is awesome though, which is why I love this channel.
Additionally, this channel is free to access. The Patreon support is a tip jar for the aforementioned curation efforts as well as collection for future projects.
Look at this like a public access radio show that's run off of donations in lieu of ads interrupting the enjoyment every few songs. Each set is curated and played free of interruption as a whole piece, akin to making an art collage.
Challenge yourself to create a set that flows as effortlessly as this one (or any of the others hosted here) before making this type of comment in the future, you'll see the effort thats put into every video.
@@jonathancorbett7882 As someone whose been DJing since highschool and digs in every city I visit, I've never heard of or seen most of these albums, though I get your point.
Everyone has their own experiences and I think that again diversifying peoples taste is really great, even if it's a shallow exposure, it's exposure nonetheless. This channel doesn't run copious ads, it's not behind a pay wall, and it credits the original artist while being played on real vinyl, which supports the original artist.
I'll make an effort o checkout mixcloud though, sounds like a cool place to find more new stuff to look for next time I hit Amoeba when I'm in LA
@@jonathancorbett7882 Nobody forces you to pay (and/or listen), so what? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ And yes, Adam Kvasnica is great.
@@jonathancorbett7882 I’m seriously struggling to understand what made you hate what I do here. I literally make 0 money out of CZcams views. I spend almost all the money that Patreon supporters donate into buying new records.
I’m not saying that I am the best digger (seems like you do think that about yourself though) I don’t make these sets exclusive to people who support me. I just share the music I love and discover.
It’s absolutely fine if you don’t enjoy it. But the hate that you’re giving me is just unnecessary.
from 2:18 reminds me of going skiing in the Alps... i've never been skiing but it still reminds me of it
damn this really fire, makes me feel like i'm cruising my alfa romero through the alps in summertime
That is such a dream right there, what you described 😍
Please, delete that "R" 🙏
I definitely was dancing alone in my apartment to this. Made my Sunday quarantine a little better.
Looks like today is the Sunday after, and exact same! Working from home, sun shinning, good vibes and amazing music

Italian soundtracks and prog rock especially, are a ocean of sonoroties, melodies, music of every kind.
This type of music reminds me of the soundtracks of serials from the 70s. I love that style. So many affective memories.
This selection makes me want to cruise along the Amalfi coast to Sorrento, pull up to a cafe, drink a glass of San Pellegrino with a fresh wedge of lemon, then hop in a small boat and keep cruising along the water.
The golden age of italian soundtracks
When the opening track is Running fast, you know it's going to be a good set. Those that are new to library records you are in for a treat.
This sounds very 70's .East Europe and USSR had groups that sounded like this.
we want names !

You never disappoint me... play it on my car meanwhile on the highway... PERFECT
omg from now this is my favorite video. Adore Italy. Ciao from Russia!
Man, thanks from Italy, i really enjoyed your set and the search you made to find this gems of our sountracks history. And the community here in the comments it is lovely and super cool, only positivity and support, strange to find here on youtube.
I love Italian 70s soundtracks and library music!!!!!
Ciao dall'Italia ❤️
I've had the pleasure of seeing Calibro 35 live, an experience I'd definitely recommend. Hopefully we'll be able to go to live shows again soon...
All the album covers are so funky too
Great for collecting!!
Man, your channel is the best! I wish I could teleport to those places the music takes me, such a nice atmosphere...
Almost a year later -- this has been, and I think will remain one of my favorite My Analog Journal sets :)
Also up there is the USSR Grooves Vinyl Set and the 60's French Beat, Garage and Yé-yé Guest Mix -- prob. my top 3, no particular order
Nice to see more plants and artwork, things are evolving nicely over there!
Wow.........As you were lol.
Nice selection. Been known to throw tracks like these into a mix once or twice!!! Great opener!!
I absolutely love this kind of music.Thank you so much.
@@jonathancorbett7882 Nearly all artists of this set are (sadly) dead. And I think, they are happy someone plays their music (even if you don't like the "random guy").
@@Galaxmul I fully agree. This "random guy" introduces these artists that are unknown to most people, opening up the possibility that these people can buy their records. But I believe that most of these records are out of print. In addition, library music, in essence, does not have traditional commercial purposes.

@@jonathancorbett7882 why so bitter?
80s retro music wine and falling your heart...
70s
first one is like a song you'd find at a Gran Turismo game menu
MAN what a great mix. That Nico Fidenco track is absolutely fantastic.
this is just so great i can't even believe it.
I love Sunday mornings with MAJ. I really love this set - perfect Sunday morning soundtrack. Keep shining your beautiful light and sharing great music with the world. Many blessings.
Simply wonderful! I am glad you to have a good sense and taste for listening to these rare library gems which usually never got released publicly. A huge fan and an admirer from Pakistan!! Btw the 70s Italian music either from the cinema or from any obscure library music labels is my weakness! Keep them rolling until you worn out your self! Be blessed. Once again with from Pakistan!
Great Selection, Good Taste !! I Love 70's Library Grooves And Funky Soundtracks. And The Italians Are Among The Best! I Can Recommend You Puccio Roelens And Stefano Torossi. For More Italian Grooves I Can Recommend You The "Spaghetti Funk"-Playlist On My Own Channel (BigTom74). Groove On, Man!!
And he hits us with the Umiliani at end💛🖤😩
Love this mix and this channel! Makes my Sundays so much sweeter. Worldwide music ❤
CHAPTERS!!!! 👏👏👏👏 THANKS!!
Brilliant tunes
This music is fantastic, It's a pity this music didn't have relevance in the 70's. Every track is incredible.
NICO FIDENCO - SWEET DISCO FUNKY È CULTURA!
Thanks for sharing such a beautiful music, it makes me fly!!!!
Absolutly amazing mix..love the italian library stuff..one love from Nottingham England👊🏻
You know, when the world breaks free of the virus, I bet you could make a lot of money selling tickets for live DJ sets around the world. Your audience loves your collection, skills, and your international reach. I would pay for a night to party with you and all the amazing people in this community that's been built around this music.
Obsessed with this. Please do more library mixes
'Feelings' right up the start ❤ just magical
Great mix as always. Thanks for introducing me to yet another fantastic musical rabbit hole.
Right? I spend a couple hours each week looking up artists in these sets. Happy Sunday! May the YT algorithm work its magic for you.
@@jonathancorbett7882 I live in the tropics. Gave up my vinyl collection when I moved to Nicaragua 16 years ago. Humidity, heat, and salt are not copacetic with vinyl.
I buy music via mp3 so I can support independent musicians. I hear there music usually from YT recommendations that start when I go down the music rabbit holes searching out some of the tunes from MAJ. At least half of my favorite songs came from YT recommending obscure musicians.
I cannot say how much i'm pleased with this mix. Great stuff
stunning selection, great work
@@jonathancorbett7882 you know nothing Jon C... :)
I love listening to your mixes and discovering samples of songs I love. It happened on this one again!
Oh great! Deep in my heart I waited for an episode based on Italian groove
dude thank you so much for introducing me to alessandro alessandroni
When I got the notification of this Analogue Journal episode i immediatly knew it would be great.
Turned out it is fantastic.
Starting right off with Stefano Torossi "Feelings". YEAH!
FANTASTIC, FANTASTIIIIC!!!!!!
Man, the whole set is so funky and groovy..
Great Tracks! Thank you!
You never dissapoint! Thank You!
I love this channel thanks for bringing this kind of music here at CZcams.
So great! I'm working late on a design project and this is keeping me moving so I can finish the project.
same :D
Thank you for making my Sunday afternoon so special . Such cool tunes
Beautiful! Thank you!
@@jonathancorbett7882 I don't really have exposure to many of these artists and rarely hear them outside of cinema soundtracks and the like. I always research the artists that I like and try to support them if they are still around. That said, most artists from the late 20th century don't even own the rights to their music anyway, so really you are just taking money away from the copyright holders, whoever that may be. So yeah, I'll thank whoever I want, thank you very much. Have a nice day.
Nice selection. Umiliani top.
With out Italy and the Italians life is meaningless 🇪🇹🥂🇮🇹
I love your mixers, looking vintage, analog and robust!
Very entertaining and fun music, at least to my ears. Thank you!

Love how all the songs in the mix are from 60-50 years ago, and then there's Calibro 35. Check them out if you don't know them.
Keep up the good work!
Calibro 35 are the only contemporary Italian artists in the tracklist.. go check them out, they're great, their new album came out last year!
Thanks for the great suggestion 🙏🏻
erotic music
mind blowing by the beautiful track selection, pure gold.. but also the SOUND!!! its so clear, those condesa mixers deliver beautiful transparent sound from a vinyl

Bellissima selezione
Infinitamente agradecida por la existencia de este canal
Thank you!!!!
feels like walking on downtown in the 70s
Great set! Thank you from Italy :)
That Bruno Lauzi track... Yes. Excellent set!
Beautiful selection as always. I love italian music! Regards from Serbia! Keep up!
I've got the 3-disc series Beat at Cinecitta and it totally goes along these lines with some really wild compositions, including funny sounds, wah-wah, etc. "Library" music as backdrop to goofy Italian sexploitation flicks from the 60's-70's. This set here by MAJ fits right in. So much groovy fun! Thanks for sharing this. You have such great taste in music. Mad respect.
I love this Mix! Great for working on Art projects to.
