Listening today to the music produced by Sensations' Fix, a project founded and directed by Franco Falsini in '70s, can't just leave anyone indifferent. Already in the mid-'60s, Falsini was involved full-time in musical activities: a tireless traveler and experimenter, an artist with uncommon curiosity and intuition, after having lived for some time in the United States and England, he finally established again in Italy where he gave shape to Sensations' Fix and signed a contract with Polydor for the release of six records in five years. Often associated with the sound of Tangerine Dream and the so-called German "cosmic couriers," Sensations' Fix were much more than mere clones of something already existing.

Sensations' Fix is - together with Portable Madness and Fragments of Light - one of the three titles released in 1974, a collection of short psychedelic compositions, in which glimpses of "cosmic" music can already be noticed; those elements would soon become a trademark in the group's repertoire. The twelve compositions present here were part of demos that Falsini had sold to the record company, which decided to publish them in the form of a not-for-sale LP, which had "music especially recorded for radio and television" written on the back cover: in practice, sketches of musical ideas had been transformed into "library music" and collected in an extremely rare vinyl that sells today for hundreds of euros.

Sensations' Fix albums are generally difficult to find; almost none of them has been reprinted in over forty years, but thanks to this series of reissues on the VM label it is now possible to rediscover them all.
