The Downfall of Sondalis (Tape)
In a fantastic and primitive land, the kingdom of men is falling. Other, more evolved races control the destinies of the world. The realm of Dalis is the last bastion of humanity, located at the edge of the world on the shores of the Endless Ocean. Weak and divided, men have become prey to powerful neighboring kingdoms. Their greed led them to betray each others. Furrowed by centuries of wars and injustices, the territories of the once prosperous kingdom of men have been largely conquered. The …

Husk The Mountains (Tape)
Under a slip of a moon that hung in the air like a clipped fingernail, Pontiff Erasmus honoured the heavens by donning a capirote that forever pointed upward to the grand abyss. It was by the Order of the Osiris Triad that the people of Maypyre were to be put to death, and the Pontiff honoured this request. He opened the Shadesbourne and read from the rotten pages therein.
From incantation to action his words became as mists which formed the creature that would devour Maypyre, its people, its li…

Valvole (LP)
Ugo Busoni's “Valvole” is a classic example of the so-called library music records released in Italy (as in the rest of the world) in order to provide 'background music' to be used in the editing of news broadcasts, radio and newsreels. These were records made by highly experienced composers and musicians who, in a very short time and with limited or non-existent budgets, had to make music to be synchronized to images. For obvious reasons, they had to be tracks of short duration, characterized b…

Side A features the soundtrack’s main theme, …
Italia: Ultimo Atto?
In 1977, in the midst of a period of political turmoil and social unrest that went down in Italian history as “years of lead”, screenwriter and director Massimo Pirri made a film no one else had the courage to make: Italia: ultimo atto? (Could It Happen Here?). Here, Pirri explores the controversial (and, in the 70s, very current) topic of left-wing armed struggle. He does so through a storyline that is almost prophetic: in the film, a mysterious ultra-leftwing armed group plans and executes the…

Il Prigioniero
* 300 copies * Digitmovies presents on LP another musical jewel by Ennio Morricone from the TV movie broadcasted by Italian Rai Television in 1978 Il Prigioniero (The Prisoner).

Noi Lazzaroni
* 300 copies * Digitmovies release an LP of the OST by Ennio Morricone: Noi Lazzaroni (We Rascals) from 1978. Ennio Morricone has composed a very "rural" score with the sounds that represent the life of the protagonist. Although integrated within modern society, the soul of this man is always directed to his past, to his land, to the teachings of his father which he could never leave behind. This adherence to the homeland is expressed through deliberately wild and almost enraged vocal performanc…

"The Intimate Lan…
