2nd Edition. Black vinyl. Somewhere in America, early 1960s. A tape recorder captures what no congregation was meant to hear. The voices of women possessed - or believed to be possessed - struggling against demons real or imagined while priests perform the ancient rite of exorcism. Screams. Prayers. Commands in Latin. The grinding friction between the sacred and the profane, committed to magnetic tape and then buried for decades.
Before The Exorcist made demonic possession a cultural phenomenon,…
"This masterful score fuses Western orchestration with ancient Eastern influences, creating a soundscape as tense and intricate as the film’s Cold War espionage. Bold, innovative, and rich in cultural texture, it remains a striking testament to Goldsmith's fearless approach to film music. " "In 1969, as Cold War tensions simmered, Jerry Goldsmith composed the score for 'The Chairman', a spy thriller starring Gregory Peck. Known for his genre-spanning versatility, Goldsmith had already impressed …
Limited edition numbered to 500 copies. Transparent red vinyl format / 180 grams + CD. Lee Van Cleef had already defined the archetype twice over: once as the cold-eyed Angel Eyes in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, once as the elegant Colonel Mortimer in For a Few Dollars More. But Gianfranco Parolini saw something else in that gaunt, reptilian face. Not a villain. Not a gentleman bounty hunter. Something slipperier. A con man with a rifle. A blackmailer in black. A gunfighter who'd rather outsm…
2xLP Transparent Magenta 180gr + CD | Limited Numbered Edition of 500 copies. April 1969. On screens across Europe, a film opens that looks like an American crime picture but feels like something else entirely. Giuliano Montaldo, the Italian director who would later give us Sacco e Vanzetti and Giordano Bruno, has crossed the Atlantic to shoot a heist thriller in San Francisco and Las Vegas. The cast reads like an inventory of New Hollywood royalty: John Cassavetes, fresh from Rosemary's Baby, a…
Armando Trovajoli was not a western man. By 1967 he had two decades of work behind him - jazz, sophisticated comedies, orchestral scores for Vittorio De Sica. He knew how to make audiences laugh, how to make them cry, how to write for big bands and strings alike. But dust, horses, guns? That was Morricone territory, Bacalov, Nicolai. Yet when Florestano Vancini called him to score his only foray into the genre, Trovajoli responded with something no one expected.
I Lunghi Giorni Della Vendetta do…

Originally released on Rouge—a subsidiary of the esteemed British library label—the album features the in-house talents of composers Chris Rae and Frank McDonald under the Soul City Orchestra moniker.

The Modern Sound Quartet represents one of the most treasured, yet least documented, outfits in the history of Italian library music. An exceptional studio band of session musicians with a formidable groove, they released only a handful of albums under this name in the second half of the 1970s. However, their sound indelibly shaped dozens of “invisible” soundtracks, often without ever receiving an official credit on the back sleeve.
Led by pianist and composer Oscar Rocchi, and featuring Andrea …

The soundtrack album was released in 1973 in Italy by Cinevox with 12 tracks and a running time of 37 minutes.

Wewantsounds is delighted to announce the reissue of Music By Lee Mason, the cult classic from the Chappell Recorded Music Library, originally released in the UK in 1971. Credited to Lee Mason & His Orchestra, the album is in fact the work of renowned British composer and arranger Pete Moore—best known for composing the iconic “Asteroid” theme in 1968 for the Pearl & Dean cinema advertising company.

'The creation of the band African Fiesta, founded in 1963 by three well-known musicians, Nicolas Kasanda, Tabu Ley Rochereau and Roger Izeidi, and the contributions of the VITA label, established by Roger Izeidi, occupy an exciting chapter in the history of Congolese popular music. During the mid-1960s, African Fiesta consistently reached the top of the hit parade. The band, which back in the day positioned itself as a competitor to a current called ‘Fiesta Cubana’, breathed new life into Congol…

Lucky Restock - Limited Quantities Please note: these are original copies that may show minor sleeve wear due to long-term storage. The vinyl is in excellent condition. Listen closely. That grinding, mechanical rhythm isn't a machine - it's a drum kit filtered through the imagination of a composer who's been asked to score "industry" and has decided to make it swing. This is library music at its most conceptually strange: music about work, about factories, about the texture of modern life, playe…
*2025 stock* Following the immensely successful and profitable School Girl Report movies producer Wolf C. Hartwig could afford a much bigger international production: Steiner – Cross of Iron, based on a World War II novel, should be directed by none other than Sam Peckinpah. The music was supposed to come from the pen of Peter Thomas. Unfortunately, the two did not get along (interview with Peter Thomas in “Der Filmkomponist Peter Thomas” by Gerd Naumann, 2009 ibidem Verlag). In the end, the Ame…
*2025 stock* Derrick turns 50 this year, but the extremely popular and highly successful German crime series has gone quiet. This is due to chief inspector Horst Tappert's posthumously publicized Nazi past. A comparable TV series, on the other hand, continues to run unwaveringly to this day: Der Alte. What they both have in common, and the subject of this album, is that Peter Thomas was one of their musical creators in their early phase. Peter Thomas and his Sound Orchester composed and played t…
