Riz Ortolani
Day Of Anger
Dagored present a reissue of Riz Ortolani's soundtrack for the 1967 film Day Of Anger. The soundtrack was originally released on vinyl in 1970. A really great western soundtrack from the giant Riz Ortolani for the 1967 cult movie Day Of Anger starring the mighty Lee Van Cleef and Giuliano Gemma. Mixing the usual western elements, Morricone style, with some incredible groovy touches with jazzy horns and loud electric guitars, Ortolani brings a new jazz verve into the "spaghetti" western sound. Th…
Africa Addio
"Africa addio" (also known as "Africa Blood and Guts" in the United States and "Farewell Africa" in the UK) is a 1966 film directed by Gualtiero Jacopetti and Franco Prosperi, winner of the David di Donatello prize for best production in the same year; the same directors, four years earlier, with the seminal "Mondo Cane", practically invented the 'Mondo movie' movie genre, transforming the classic documentary format into something shocking, making use of low-budget amateurish shots showing a raw…
Perversion Story (Una Sull'altra)
The original soundtrack recording for this 1969 Italian thriller filmed in San Francisco by cult director Lucio Fulci. The movie has one of the best and most well-known scores written by the mighty Riz Ortolani. Groovy and jazzy and unlike many other Italian soundtracks. Limited edition pink vinyl; Special deluxe gatefold sleeve; Edition of 500.
Farewell Uncle Tom
Dagored present a vinyl reissue of the soundtrack for Farewell Uncle Tom ("Addio Zio Tom"), complete with extra tracks. Italian directors Gualtiero Jacopetti and Franco Prosperi gave birth to a whole new subgenre of "non-fiction" exploitation movies with their 1962 hit Mondo Cane. After repeated accusations of forgery, unethical behaviors, and war crimes, they decided to make a movie about the atrocities of American slavery as an apology of sorts. It was 1971 and the movie was Farewell Uncle Tom…
Una ragione per vivere e una per morire
**Limited edition of 250 copies.** Digitmovies is releasing the complete Ost by Riz Ortolani for the Spaghetti Western “A Reason to Live, A Reason to Die.” Riz Ortolani composed one of his best scores during his long career with this one, an epic symphonic score where a heroic main theme played by horns and orchestra follows the group of courageous men to their deaths. A western score, but one that's put together with a slightly different feel than usual – almost more straight dramatic at times,…
La Vergine Di Norimberga
La Vergine Di Norimberga is a great horror movie directed by Antonio Margheriti (aka Anthony Dawson) in 1963, starring Rossana Podestà and Georges Riviere. The great soundtrack, composed orchestrated and directed by the late Maestro Riz Ortolani, will give you the intense pathos of the movie through a series of songs that could be only described as “orchestral horror music”. Do not expect the classic Ortolani’s orchestration or “jazzy” tunes here. "This is Ortolani as you’ve never or rarely hear…
La Danza Macabra
A deluxe edition of the soundtrack composed and directed by Riz Ortolani for the 1964 horror movie Danza Macabra (a.k.a. Castle Of Blood) directed by Anthony M. Dawson (Antonio Margheriti) and starring Georges Rivière, Barbara Steele, Phil Karlson, Raoul H. Newman. For the first time ever on vinyl, this amazing soundtrack is one of the best works composed and directed by Riz Ortolani. I must say it’s the perfect soundtrack to describe the gothic atmosphere of the movie. Beside a few melodi…
