[Sonorama] - 236773 - Volume 8 (Various Composers)
« on: May 08, 2023, 12:43:47 AM »
I like to nickname this label "The Beneluxian Synchro-Fox", because the fact that judging by the tracks I've heard in this label through rips I've found on Soulseek (and some browsing on Discogs), it seems that Polydor, the owners of this label had licensed most of their tracks on Sonorama from pieces of media, similar to how Synchro-Fox licenses some tracks for their label, but in Sonorama's case, it's commercially released record labels. For example, the first track from Volume 8, "Polka For Strings" was licensed from a Decca LP named "One Night of Madness". It also shows that on the original LP, the original orchestra for this specific track was Van Lynn and his Orchestra, better known as Dolf van der Linden and his Metropole Orchestra (It's interesting to note that The Metropole Orchestra was also in Synchro-Fox too for some of the British composed tracks, and also Dolf van der Linden's own tracks for the library). Ironically, Conroy licensed tracks from Polydor themselves at least once, with the Oswald D'Andrea tracks from the Tokio 64 Olympic Disc LP from 1964 being licensed for two Conroy LPs, being BMLP 006 and BMLP 007. Some of the content made for this Sonorama are original, with the only original content on Volume 8 is the B side, entirely composed by Robert De Kers.

*Bump!* I had to fix some errors in my topic, this is Volume 8, not Volume 9. Sorry.
