La Dolce Vita O.S.T.
On vinyl, it's the legendary score from the Fellini's equally legendary movie. The music by Nino Rota sometimes sounds quasi-liturgical, sometimes jazzy, and sometimes it rocks. Lurking beneath is the irreverence of tuba and accordions, and snatches of pop songs. The characters in Fellini's movie are forever in motion, and Rota provides the perfect music for their processions and parades. 
Music For Soviet Films
"Shostakovich's involvement with the cinema dates to his youth in Leningrad. Shostakovich composed his first screen score in 1929, three years after his swift rise to fame with his startling 'First Symphony', and the same year he began the Age of Gold ballet. The film was The New Babylon, a writer-director collaboration by Shklovski and Trauberg -- Michurin began in 1946, after the end of World War 2. By then, Shostakovich had achieved a formidable reputation as composer all over the world.…

Criminale - Vol. 1 Paura
There was something strange and disturbing going on in Italy in the ‘70s. It was a tumultuous and visionary period of (post) psychedelic excess. One that was defined, on the one hand, by random acts of terrorism and a heavy military police presence throughout the Italian territory, but also by strobe lights, shattered taboos and extreme gestures. A singular atmosphere that reverberated throughout every aspect of life - from fashion, to design, to television, to fi lm, to literature, to th…
Veskunoita
Actor/singer/flautist Vesa-Matti Loiri's third album 'Veskunoita' (1973) delves deeper into the kind of vocal jazz-pop which he mastered on his second record, 'Vesku Suomesta', but with a more light-hearted approach. During the recordings Loiri was joined by a host of well known Finnish jazz and rock musicians. This is the first ever reissue of this title of which original copies are almost impossible to find.

Oek
OEK is a collection of six pieces. The name is a reference to the Tuvan word for yurt, or quite simply to the idea of home. The pieces are constructed using very simple material -- scales built from tetrachords and suspensions, that blend together the intervals of the chromatic field. This abstract material is tempered, in turn, by the sounds of the instruments.Adam McCartney born in Limerick, 1987. Currently lives in Vienna. Studied composition and music theory with K. Lang, J.

Requiem per un agente segreto
A groovy little soundtrack by the great Piero Umiliani! The score is for a b-grade spy film from the late 60s – starring Stewart Granger as (according to the notes) "a seasoned secret agent, but always ready to kiss and to bang!" A lot to live up to, we know – but Umiliani more than does the job, with a wonderful mix of tunes that run from Barry-esque Bond to swinging Milan, blending electric guitar, bubbling organ, and exotic themes into a 17 track package that sparkles with the best o…

Neighborhoods
Ernest Hood’s Neighborhoods was released some two decades after the Portland, Oregon born and raised musician’s first forays into field recordings.
