Danger: Diabolik
On Danger: Diabolik, Ennio Morricone weaponises pop, jazz and electronics into a hyper‑stylised heist engine: fuzz guitars, wordless vocals and mod orchestration turning Mario Bava’s comic‑book caper into a delirious, late‑60s sonic hallucination.
C'Era Una Volta Il West
There are not enough superlatives to describe Ennio Morricone’s score to "Once Upon a Time in the West". It is considered the best movie soundtrack ever by many. Finally we have the complete score in 31 tracks. 4 of these have never been previously released, 3 have never been released by the Solisti and 3 have been upgraded. It includes a 24 page booklet with critical notes & listener’s guide.
Once Upon a Time in America
The original soundtrack was presented in two different versions, the initial one being restricted to 15 tracks and 50 minutes because of the limitations of the vinyl format. A so-called special edition saw the light on CD in 1998, adding 25 minutes to the program. It included a long suite which was actually a collage partly repeating previously released music. Combining the album tracks with additional music heard in the movie and removing the duplications, a program of more than 78 minutes was …

Io Sto Con Gli Ippopotami
"It was 1979, and I was barely 5 years old. Some memories are impressed on my mind with a sort of solarized texture, like in the photographs of the period, full of icons and myths. My father Franco and mother Luciana were like crazy pinballs, touring the world: America, France and Germany were the sides against which they continuously bumped and Italy's capital the hole to which they always returned. I was really young, but I remember very well the period in which my father worked on this little…
Música Para Teatro 2009-2022
*100 copies limited edition* Wasser Bassin has just released a brief anthology of the work of José Albert Gomes, Música Para Teatro 2009-2022; or, in other words, a road of discontinuous lines, where the contemporaneity of tracks like “Ciúme” is followed by the abstractions of “Quarto Poder”, the meditative atmospheres of “Laudes”, or the glitch of “Needle”. That said, this compendium may sound a little scattered or paradoxical, but the same mind doesn't necessarily have to think the same things…

Rivelazioni Di Uno Psichiatra Sul Mondo Perverso Del Sesso
Four Flies is thrilled to present the very first release of Gianfranco Reverberi's hidden masterpiece: a mind-blowing soundtrack, possibly his wildest and most daring.

The single seemed to be a harmless cover of the theme from Last Tango in Paris, complete with a typical …
