4 Mosche di Velluto Grigio
Manic percussion, tense staccato strings, discordant piano riffs, and jazz-rock motifs – this is Il Maestro at his finest. 4 Mosche di Velluto Grigio (4 Flies on Grey Velvet) is the third and final part of Dario Argento's world famous cult, terror trilogy. Fear, according to Dario Argento, is hidden behind metaphorical, animal symbols that mirror degenerative urban decay, in other words a kind of mental zoo. Birds with crystal plumage, cats with nine tails, grey velvet flies, enough species to t…
Veruschka

Composed a year before Maddalena, Ennio Morricone’s soundtrack has a certain connection to th…
Cuore di Mamma

It is the story of Lorenza (Carla Gravina), a mother of three children who is unable to communicate. Her attitude is childish, impassive, conformist in form and substance. A mother with a heart of stone, she is harassed by political extremism from differen…
Ultimo Tango a Parigi
The soundtrack for “Last Tango in Paris” (1972), composed by Argentine saxophonist Gato Barbieri, is one of the most iconic works in cinematic history, perfectly capturing the emotions and themes of this controversial masterpiece by Bernardo Bertolucci. The film, brilliantly acted by Marlon Brando and Maria Schneider, delves into desire, pain, and loneliness through an intensely physical and clandestine relationship between two strangers in Paris. Barbieri's music is a blend of sensuality, melan…

Contamination
2025 repress. “Contamination” was released in 1980 as a soundtrack for the eponymous horror/science fiction film, during what probably was the most prolific period in Goblin’s career, even if the band had already been abandoned by guitarist Massimo Morante and keyboardist Claudio Simonetti. Unkonwn by most listeners, it’s a release that deserves more attention, since it shows a wide range of music styles (Jazz, funk, rock, electronic) and once again Goblin’s ability in writing film scores.

Danger: Diabolik
In 1967 Morricone was at the peak of his career, and his score for Diabolik can be ranked among his most spectacular achievements. It is quite amazing that no official album was ever released. Only a couple of bootlegs saw the light, based on the soundtrack of the movie, providing a fairly faithful account of the movie's atmosphere and of the music content. Their approach was paradoxical however: carefully taking out the parts of the music which were covered over by dialogue, but also adding dia…

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.

In 1973, a mysterious 45 rpm single surfaced under the name 'Sharon Chatam e la sua Orchestra.' The single seemed to be a harmless cover of the theme from Last Tango in Paris, complete with a typical …
Godzilla
