Indagine Su Un Cittadino Al Di Sopra Di Ogni Sospetto
Special Price, limited stock. Stunningly beautiful work from Ennio Morricone – a haunting set of themes played on vibes, off-key piano, plucked strings, and some very odd-sounding instrument that keeps going "boing!" The music has that dreamy, lilting, minimally melodic style that makes so many other Morricone scores from this time so great – with the sort of downturning chord progressions that you'll also find in other classics like La Donna Invisible or The Burglars. The overall sound is amazi…
L'ultimo Treno Della Notte
“L’Ultimo Treno della Notte” (Last Stop on the Night Train) is a 1975 thriller film directed by Aldo Lado, one of the most violent movies ever produced in Italy in the ’70s (and beyond) that actually shows, even in the crudest scenes, for same admission of the director, a harsh attack against the bourgeois society and its powerful rich people. Despite the limited budget, the friendship between Aldo Lado and composer Ennio Morricone made this collaboration possible; nonetheless, only a 45rpm 7″ …
Il gatto a nove code
"Il gatto a nove code" (The cat o 'nine tails), filmed in 1971, is the second film by Dario Argento, a horror thriller still distant from his horror works for which he will later become famous on an international level. The collaboration with the composer and conductor Ennio Morricone, already known for his work on Sergio Leone’s western movies, is here renewed after the success of "The Bird with the Crystal Plumage", and will continue with the third installment of the 'zoological trilogy', "Fou…
East
Possibly one of the most fascinating psychedelic album coming out of Japan in the early seventies. Published in 1972 on Capitol Records eastern brand, the East album was then fully licensed to both the UK and American market, due to his fascinating and lysergic moments. The opener 'Beautiful Morning' soon became a classic on its own, showing the western influences of the band all along the spirit of the rising sun counterculture. A revolutionary effort in the end, coming from a different perspec…
Cosi' Come Sei
*500 copies limited edition pink vinyl* "Così come sei' is a 1978 film directed by Alberto Lattuada, a sentimental drama starring the two leads Marcello Mastroianni and Nastassja Kinski, at the time of filming still very young but already praised for her acting skills.
The soundtrack composed, orchestrated and directed by Ennio Morricone is therefore steeped in romantic atmospheres, and celestial melodies drawn from wind instruments set to symphonic pop gems and embellished on more than one occa…

Babylon
Housed in a deluxe gatefold jacket; OBI.

Volume I (LP)
Tip! The Doubling Riders were born in the middle of the ’80s from the ashes of the great experimental / minimal wave project A.T.R.O.X. around the trio of Francesco Paladino, Pier Luigi Andreoni, and Riccardo Sinigaglia (Professor of Electronic composition at Milan’s Conservatory) . Starting from an electronic music approach and working freely with ethno, folk and wave elements, the sound of the Doubling Riders was extremely original and hard to classify.
Mostly quiet meditative stuff, with folk…

Some Experiences With Shock
