Formed in Naples in 1982, Panoramics was an avant-garde new wave band popular in Italy for their multimedia shows and for incorporating elements of minimalism and ambient music into their live sets. Their mixture of pop music styles with experimental elements garnered them a steady fanbase in the early ’80s. In the mid-’80s, a debut album was released, produced by Peter Gordon (Laurie Anderson, David Byrne, Suzanne Vega). Despite this critically acclaimed album, Panoramics ceased activities in 1991. But they left a mark on the Italian new wave and art scene, and their song ‘Estrellita’ revived in the 90s through several dance remix versions, receiving major airplay. Here is the 30th-anniversary reissue of their album, remastered and restored.
Brand new, never played, unsealed
