Midnight Blue (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack In Full Stereo)
*2022 stock* Stelvio Cipriani composed an uplifting score (the film takes place on a Sunday in summer) with a recurring dance-flavored theme with the fantastic voice of Edda Dell'Orso. The score describes the freshness and light-heartedness of three very young friends during a relaxing day at the beach. Unfortunately destiny has something in store for them. They meet three seemingly mild mannered men who are actually criminals who’ve escaped from prison. For them Cipriani creates hard and rhythm…
Roma Violenta (La Cinevox Si Incazza)
*2022 stock* This album is a musical tribute to a film genre that has recently come back into fashion: the Italian poliziottesco genre.

"Roma violenta..." contains music found in the original masters of the soundtracks of those films. These tracks, typical of the late 70s and early 80s atmosphere…

Beat Vol. 2 - Lounge At Cinevox
*2022 stock* "After testing the waters with the solid but unexceptional Lounge at Cinevox: Beat, Vol. 1, Cinevox upped the ante with this more interesting second volume. Lounge at Cinevox: Beat, Vol. 2 has the edge on its predecessor because it boasts a more adventurous set of selections. This combination of factors is apparent from the first cut, a wild slab of psychedelic funk entitled "4 Mosche Di Velluto Grigio (Titoli)": After leaping out the speakers with a jazzy drum intro, this cut then …
L'uccello dalle piume di cristallo
*2022 stock* "Touted as being the definitive edition of Ennio Morricone's darkly seductive score for the first motion picture directed by Italian master of the macabre, Dario Argento, this release of L'uccello Dalle Piume Di Cristallo, or The Bird With The Crystal Plumage, coincides with the film's debut on Blu-ray (see separate review).

De Fabriek
*200 copies limited edition* "Sometimes a beautiful score is handed to you on a silver platter, as was the case with De Fabriek (English: The Factory), a tv show that ran from 1981 to 1982 in the Netherlands. Back then I was just a small child and did not know much about the series, but, if I remember correctly, I was told at the time that the music was pretty good. The music was composed by Ruud Bos, who has written a lot of music for Dutch media in the ‘70s and ‘80s. If you are Dutch and have …
