A haunting soundscape from one of the most singular voices in British music.
Composed by Robert Wyatt for The Animals Film Victor Schonfeld’s powerful anti-vivisection documentary this 1982 soundtrack drifts between tenderness and unease, abstraction and empathy.
Recorded and cut at Tape One, with co-production by Ian Marlow and mastering by BilBo, the album exists in that fragile space between music and memory: synthetic pulses, field-like drones, ghostly voices dissolving into silence.
Issued in Italy by Base Records, this LP captures Wyatt’s deeply human response to the violence and beauty of the living world an experimental, ambient reflection on the ethics of seeing and feeling.
For listeners drawn to the intersection of sound, politics, and poetry this is not just a soundtrack, but a document of conscience.
Intermission exists in the space between documentation and devotion an ongoing archive of cultural fragments that refuse to vanish. Each title within our portfolio is selected not for trend, but for tension: between what was meant to disappear and what insists on remaining.
We work with objects that speak quietly but persistently publications, recordings, and editions that define the undercurrents of art, sound, and design. Together they form a living record of marginal brilliance, a collection that privileges significance over scale.

Every Intermission title is handled as an artifact. We believe that preservation is an act of reverence one that begins the moment you open a cover or unspool a tape.
To experience a piece, do so slowly. Allow the air to touch the paper, let light fall softly over each page. Avoid excess pressure; handle edges rather than surfaces. Each mark, fold, or patina is part of its passage through time evidence of care rather than decay.
We encourage collectors to engage not only with the content, but with the gesture of preservation itself: a quiet commitment to memory.
