One of the stranger additions the RPI team have had to deal with is this collaboration from Genova. PERSIMFANS was formed in 1978 by a group of music students. Their name is an abbreviation of a conductorless Russian symphony orchestra - Pervyi Simfonicheskii Ansambl that performed between 1922 and 1932.This unusual formation released one album titled "Quinta Dimensione" in 1978 which is an atmospheric blend of the avant-garde, electronic, symphonic and classical. The original album featured spoken word vocals of wizard TONY BINARELLI which are missing from the later CD reissue. Five Tarot cards were also presented in the original release.
