fratto9 under the sky records is another Italian indipendent label borne out of passion and love for underground music and improvisation...
Is also a tribute in memory of AL APRILE, constantly up-to-date journalist, very expert of the international music scene, a sensible collector of records, magazines and rock memorabilia, a disc-jockey and radio programmer, among the early founders of Radio Popolare in Milano, attentive concert-goer, but constantly attentive to all new trends in music creation and in the music business.
