I don't know nearly enough about this record or its background. The Discogs notes reads: This piece of vinyl acetate and various chromated cellulose that you are holding in your hands has been devised as a gift from ON, on its fifth birthday, for all our esteemed collectors, advertisers, fans and critics. ON was, and is, an architecture and design publication founded in 1978.

This copy includes a crazy collage-style poster with a very 1984 design, along with the wood-grain print cover. And the vinyl is red. The A side is an uptempo synth piece but again the B side reigns supreme. I know I have heard Alchimia's Non Lo So before but I can't pinpoint where exactly. The group was founded by Alessandro Guerriero and his sister Adriana with the stated mission of "materializing a non-existent thing into being." Hard to argue with that.


Everything (vinyl, sleeve, poster) are in nice shape. The poster is folded to fit this oversized 7" packaging and suffers from minor "fold-wear" but nothing too noticeable. Images and audio clips are from the copy for sale.
