LEO Records is the definitive source.

Ganelin is Lithuanian, the other two Russian. BTW I'd really recommend checking out this one by Chekasin:

Sun Ra - Celestial Love (1984)

A recent (2020) re-release of Sun Ra's "Celestial Love" studio album from 1984, with a bonus track "Drop Me Off in Harlem" which wasn't on the original release.

I’m not sure what to make of that one. I think I’ve heard it before. It sounds kind of silly but maybe I’m failing to transport myself to their perspective.

Gigi Masin - Calypso (2020)

At times gorgeously Balearic and other times menacing and unsettling. Gigi is one of the great sagemasters at blending jazz and ambient and this album is a top contender for me for AOTY.

I listened. I like the way the songs are distinct and well-crafted but still carry the signature features of ambient music that usually carries on for much longer. Also, as you pointed out, it’s nice to hear old school traditional instruments working with the electronics. It fits with what I’ve been in the mood to hear. Great recommendation, thanks.

Glad you like it brother. It came up through a random Bandcamp recommendation and I was surprised at how great it was right out of the gate. Ben Vince on sax doesn't hurt either.

F*ck my ears with your sonic appendages you filthy f*cks. I love this album. Treat me like your play thing.

The critics who trashed that album are fools.

You think the legend they were all on LSD is true? I mean, they were on drugs, but LSD? I believe it.
