The Last Sacrifice
The Last Sacrifice by Mike Lindsay—co-founder of Tunng and the creative force behind Lump—offers a meticulously crafted folk-horror soundtrack that doubles as a standalone listening experience. Written as the audio companion to Rupert Russell's sinister true crime tale, Lindsay’s score winds through moods of spectral dread and rustic eeriness, shaped by analog warmth and otherworldly textures. The resulting album is immersive and haunting, deftly blending traditional English folk motifs with chi…
Non si sevizia un paperino
Transparent red vinyl format / 180 grams, limited edition numbered to 500 copies. The soundtrack for “Non si Sevizia un Paperino” (1972), composed by Riz Ortolani for Lucio Fulci’s giallo masterpiece, is a work of extraordinary intensity and contrast. Ortolani, a master at balancing melodic beauty with unsettling atmospheres, perfectly captures the essence of a film that blends mystery and violence with the innocence of a small Southern Italian village. The film, one of Lucio Fulci’s most acclai…

L'uccello dalle piume di cristallo
* Black vinyl edition. Gatefold cover * Dario Argento’s opera prima ‘L’uccello dalle piume di cristallo’ was premiered in 1970 and marked an historical and revolutionary debut, being a truly original and innovative thriller. The stylistic choices of Argento mark a clear step forward from the thrillers of that era and even the soundtrack was something utterly special.Argento assigned the score to Ennio Morricone, composer of the soundtracks for ‘Comandamenti per un gangster’, ‘C’era una volta il …
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…
Confessione di un commissario di Polizia...
Quartet Records, in collaboration with GDM and Universal Music Publishing Italia, presents a remastered and expanded edition of Riz Ortolani’s masterful score for the Damiano Damiani thriller Confessione Di Un Commissario Di Polizia Al Procuratore Della Repubblica (aka Confessions Of A Police Captain), starring Franco Nero and Martin Balsam. This was one of the first films about the Mafia in which the fight is hopeless because “the polyp’s feelers” reach everything and everybody. A police inspec…
The Polydor Years
Quartet Records, in collaboration with Universal Music Enterprises, presents a 3-CD box set consisting of the three legendary albums that John Barry recorded for Polydor Records between 1972 and 1976, as well as some singles and curiosities. These beautifully designed albums contain some of the composer’s best-known themes, newly arranged and performed, and—in the case of Americans—an original musical work for jazz soloists and orchestra.
Ahead of his first public appearance conducting a symphon…
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.
Le Foto Proibite Di Una Signora Per Bene
One of the greatest soundtracks ever from the legendary Ennio Morricone – a real standard-setting record that's one of the top choices we go to again and again to illustrate the genius of his music! The score is a fantastic mix of the two best sides of Morricone's work – the kind of light, lilting melodies that are schooled in bossa, but turned loose on their own devices – and the darker, more atonal passages that would come to play more strongly during the 70s. The light wins over the darkness …
Il Serpente
Super Tip! “Il Serpente” (Night Flight from Moscow) is a 1973 spy and thriller film directed by Henri Verneuil, starring among others Yul Brinner, Henry Fonda and Philippe Noiret. It’s one of the French director’s six movies that feature a soundtrack composed by Ennio Morricone, who here managed to describe the thrilling atmosphere of this high-voltage espionage, alternating dramatic and mysterious passages ("Assassinio sul Lago", "Il Serpente") and experimental ones ("Astrazione con Ritmo", "Es…
Genova a Mano Armata
*100 copies limited edition* Franco Micalizzi wrote one of his best OSTs for the Poliziesco genre with this one (the main theme is one of Micalizzi's favorites and he often performs it live in concert with his orchestra Big Bubbling Band). The OST opens with the strong main score written for woodwinds and percussion, which is then reprised with different arrangements throughout the film. It is also alternated with moments of suspense. The violent urban jungle atmosphere is broken by Sambamba, a …
Suspiria
Special edition of Goblin’s masterpiece, here released on blue iris coloured vinyl with 30x30cm insert and new liner notes. After the incredible debut of “Profondo Rosso” (Deep Red), the soundtrack of the eponymous 1975 film directed by Dario Argento, no one could ever imagine that shortly afterwards Goblin would be able not only to reach its heights but even further refine what the band already delivered in their first record. While “Profondo Rosso” had been partly composed by Giorgio Gaslini,…
Gli Occhi Freddi Della Paura
New remastered reissue, the only credited soundtrack appearance of Gruppo di Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza, makes you wish Ennio Morricone had used his free improv unit for that purpose more often. Gli Occhi Fredda Della Paura, or Cold Eyes of Fear, is an Italian slasher (giallo) from 1971. The score has Il Gruppo augmented by a rhythm section and a fuzz-wah guitarist (most likely Alessandro Alessandroni). The results sound like a creepy take on 70s Miles Davis, with driving jazz beats a la C…
Grasshopper Republic (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)
*200 copies limited release* In the opening moments of Grasshopper Republic, composer and sound artist Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe (Candyman / Master / Telemarketers) soundtracks images of hands rubbing, counting, and exchanging thousands and thousands of Uganda banknotes are juxtaposed with a heap of grasshoppers escaping or overflowing from a hole in a woven basket. Underscoring this is a rising tide of crystalline tones that hover from the high frequencies of the right into the deafened space of …
Hagazussa
Mohammad are back!! With their name compressed into MMMD deliver their most lyrical work to date on the original soundtrack for Lukas Feigelfeld's slow-burning gothic horror movie “Hagazussa – A heathen's curse”. The music is absorbing, emotional and powerful as ever and bears MMMD's familiar idiosyncratic universe galvanized in their previous releases, while open to new sonic territories that reflect the film's constant state of dread as well as key elements such as trauma, isolation, anxiety a…
Sans Sommation
* 2023 stock * Chris' Soundtrack Corner proudly presents the CD soundtrack to the 1973 German-French-Italian co-production Sans Sommation (called WITHOUT APPEAL in the UK, worldwide English title WITHOUT WARNING), helmed by French director Bruno Gantillon and featuring a score by Daniele Patucchi. The film is an entertaining thriller that plays out satisfactorily.
Maurice Ronet stars as discredited police inspector Raoul Maury, who made the mistake as a policeman of going after a politician's ne…
Scorticateli Vivi
* 2023 stock * 1978's Scorticateli Vivi is a cynical mercenary exploiter that was the last of four films Stelvio Cipriani scored for director Mario Siciliano. The film is best known in the US under the rather grotesquely alluring title Skin 'Em Alive, even though no one actually gets skinned alive in the movie; it is also known under its 1980 Philippines English language release title, Wild Geese Attack, in an attempt to suggest to theatergoers that it was a direct sequel to the 1978 Andrew V. M…
Bermude: La Fossa Maledetta (Cave Of The Sharks)
* 2023 stock * Chris' Soundtrack Corner proudly presents for the first time the complete soundtrack to Tonino Ricci's 1978 supernatural thriller, featuring one of the most luscious and infectiously melodic scores composed by A-list Italian film composer Stelvio Cipriani.
It so happened that in less than two years maestro Stelvio Cipriani composed scores for three genre films dealing with the peculiar subject matter of the Bermuda (or Devil's) Triangle. Between 1978 and 1979 Cipriani scored IL TR…
A Pugni Nudi
The German label Chris' Soundtrack Corner continues its successful crusade to openly flaunt the exceptional precociousness of Italian film scores of the 1970s with A Pugni Nudi - a stunningly appropriate follow-up to their 2010 release of the orchestral funk masterwork Vai Gorilla. Where that hot gem showcased the collaborative magic of Bixio, Frizzi and Tempera, this latest CD allows composer and music mogul Franco Bixio to strut his considerable stuff solo. Salvaged (and expanded) from a top-r…
Sono Stato Un Agente CIA
* 2023 stock * The 1978 Italian espionage thriller Sono Stato Un Agente CIA stars well-known 60s / 70s American actor David Janssen – television's original Fugitive. Also known as Covert Action the taut narrative is a precursor to the wildly successful Jason Bourne series in that Janssen's character is in Europe fighting to stay alive and one step ahead of his former employers, a dark cabal within the American intelligence community. A major difference between current film fare such as the Bourn…
