Paisà Got Soul - Soul, AOR & Disco in Italy (1977-1986)
*In process of stocking* Compiled and conceived by David Nerattini partnered by Pierpaolo De Sanctis. Between the late 70s and the early 80s, pop music was in a transitional phase. After a return to the roots of punk, rock was morphing into new wave, while disco was rapidly declining and the electronic revolution, already on the rise, was ushering in the transition from analog to digital. This period also saw the emergence and relatively brief flowering of a commercially dominant style that mixe…

La Novizia
Oops, Four Flies did it again! Like other rare Italian gems, Berto Pisano's La Novizia was long thought lost before the FF team rescued, restored and remastered it from the original tapes. And wow, it's just one of the best things, if not the best thing, about the 1975 film it was written for – an erotic comedy with melodramatic overtones directed by Pisano's long-time collaborator Giuliano Biagetti (they previously worked together on Interrabang and La Svergognata) and starring a young and mesm…
Mensenwerk / Een spoor van Carla
Pieter Verlinden (1934-2002) was an exceptional composer responsible for hundreds of scores and soundtracks for television, ballet, theatre and film.

Most of his work was only preserved on the original master tapes in his personal archive, so the majority of Verlinden’s music has never…

Porci con la p.38
"Porci con la P.38" is an almost unknown Italian crime movie directed in 1978 by Gianfranco Pagani - his only and soon forgotten work to date, for two main reasons: the modest quality of the final result and the historical period in which was made, the end of the '70s, when its film genre had practically dissolved. Its music score, on the other and, written by composer and conductor Pippo Caruso (1935-2018), is a quite different matter, and only by pure chance has just been luckily and very rece…
