The Curse Of The Ancient Abbey
Edition of 300. * Deluxe LP edition with Obi + Extensive Booklet + RPG module w/map! * A few months after the success of "The Cave of the Lost Talisman" the chaotic little humanoid called Kobold had already composed a second album. We've all wondered: will it live up to the previous one? Will it be a killer album? Well... it was! The formula had remained unchanged: the love of early 80s role-playing games, the sounds inspired by 8 and 16-bit video games from when we were kids, a solid and compel…
Venom (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)
Quartet Records, in collaboration with Aribage Limited and the Michael Kamen estate, is proud to present the premiere release of the early Michael Kamen (Brazil, Lethal Weapon, Die Hard, Licence To Kill) score for 1982 British thriller Venom. Directed by Piers Haggard and based on the novel by Alan Scholfield, starring Sterling Hayden, Klaus Kinski, Sarah Miles, Nicol Williamson, Susan George and Oliver Reed, Venom tells the story of a group of international terrorists who attempt to kidnap a we…
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…
Spectra Ex Machina / A Sound Anthology of Occult Phenomena 1920-2017 Vol.2
The Anthology Spectra Ex Machina brings together rare documents pertaining to so-called occult phenomena, most of them taken from little-known archives. In the course of three volumes, this series traces an audio history of parapsychology through the exploration of spiritualism and haunted houses (vol. 1); musician mediums (vol. 2); experiences of extrasensory perceptions (clairvoyance, psychokinesis, etc.) and electronic voice phenomena (vol. 3). The link between music, sound and the paranormal…
Il Nido Del Ragno
A selection of six tracks from “Spider Labyrinth” appeared for the first time, on CD “Porte aperte”, from the homonymous movie of director Gianni Amelio. Compared to the original stereo masters, there are nine more unpublished tracks. The author composed and directed a symphonic score which alternates dissonant and calm, suspended musics. This LP, of a total running time of 34:42 minutes, intends to be a sincere homage to Franco Piersanti’s Art.
Terrore Nello Spazio
Gino Marinuzzi Jr’s score to Mario Bava’s Planet Of The Vampires is an incredibly rich and atmospheric score, pulsating, undulating analog synth sounds mix with more traditional orchestral flourishes to create something quite unique. Gino Marinuzzi Jr.'s music for Mario Bava's Terrore Nello Spazio (aka Planet of the Vampires) was one of the eeriest film scores of its period, utilizing the composer's considerable skills within both the orchestral and electronic idioms. Marinuzzi's music features …

Stridulum (The Visitor)
Quartet Records, in collaboration with the Riz Ortolani estate, presents the premiere CD edition of one of the titles most requested by maestro Ortolani’s fans: the bizarre 1978 mondo movie Brutes And Savages (aka Savana Selvaggia). Written by Jenny Craven and directed by Arthur Davis, this belongs to the select group of mondos that became notorious not for their shocking content, but for their lack of understanding of the genre. Surviving in two different cuts (92 mins vs. 107 mins), Brutes An…

Milano: Il Clan Dei Calabresi
Four Flies' 45s series continues to pay tribute to the golden age of Italian film music, this time with the first 7-inch release ever of two super-groovy themes from Gianni Marchetti's soundrack to Milano: il clan dei calabresi (known in English as The Last Desperate Hours), a 1974 poliziottesco film directed by Giorgio Stegani. "M2", on side A, is a re-versioning of a timeless classic – Quincy Jones' "Ironside" theme – where the punch of funk comes to the fore and is fused with the acid sound o…
Tecnica Di Un Omicidio (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)
*300 copies limited edition* Robby Poitevin (24-10-1926 / 3-10-2003) represents the Italian Film Music school, very close, for its lounge sounds, to that of his American colleagues, such as Lalo Schifrin, Henry Mancini, Quincy Jones and Hugo Montenegro. Other than being an extremely valid arranger and orchestra leader, Maestro Poitevin composed jazz, blues and swing themes, like those for “The hired killer”, which is part of the police and spy current. For this genre, the composer also created o…
Metti Una Sera A Cena
Yellow vinyl edition. Quite possibly the greatest Morricone score ever – and one whose dreamy bossa-inflected title theme has been covered a number of times over the years (most recently by the group Balanco!) From the first minutes of the album, you'll instantly recognize the main theme – as it's swells of voices and lilting keyboards are among one of Morricone's best signatures from the time. Don't worry about getting bored because you may already know it, though – as the album has loads of ot…
4 Mosche di Velluto Grigio
Black Vinyl. Manic percussion, tense staccato strings, discordant piano riffs, and jazz-rock motifs – this is Il Maestro at his finest. Ams is proud to present the definitive release of Ennio Morricone’s score to Dario Argento’s 1972 giallo classic Four Flies On Grey Velvet (a.k.a. 4 Mosche di Velluto Grigio). Based around a psychologically embattled rock musician who finds himself in extraordinarily mysterious circumstances, Argento’s third film (as well as the last offering of his Animal Trilo…
Gangsters '70
Cinedelic returns on the back of some pretty incredible releases over the last year with one of their most exciting and unexpected records to date, the first ever release of the legendary composer Egisto Macchi's soundtrack for Mino Guerrini’s 1968 film, “Gangsters '70”. Created in collaboration with his Gruppo di Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza associate, Walter Branchi, it's among the most strikingly experimental of all his soundtrack work and remains startlingly urgent more than half a centu…

Edda Dell'Orso lends her haunting, wordless vocal, too.

I Corpi Presentano Tracce Di Violenza Carnale (Torso) - (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)
*300 copies limited edition. Expanded edition* The legendary Torso (1973), considered one of the precursors of the slasher genre, was directed by Sergio Martino following the success of All the Colors of the Dark (1972), featuring a stunning soundtrack composed by Guido & Maurizio De Angelis also known as Oliver Onions. In 1973 a 26 minutes-long stereo LP was prepared for RCS's promo SP series, but it got cancelled and the 45 rpm didn't see the light, neither. In 1999 BMG printed out a CD (OST 1…
Ritmo dell’industria N. 2
*Limited edition yellow vinyl* At the end of the ‘60s in Italy – but also abroad, especially in France and England – a very particular trend began to spread, that one known as ’Library music’ or ‘sonorization’: as suggested by its name, those were real music libraries intended for the accompaniment of audiovisual productions such as television programs, advertisements, documentaries and films. Since they were created in total artistic freedom condition, they are often difficult if not impossible…

'Rarities' is an exclusive Record Store Day release wh…
Citta' Violenta
** Double LP, 300 copies. Black Vinyl ** A tight, atmospheric, and pretty damn funky soundtrack composed by the maestro Ennio Morricone for the 1970 crime-drama Città violenta (released in the USA as The Family in 1973), conducted by Bruno Nicolai, starring the mighty Charles Bronson and directed by Sergio Sollima. Another hard-hitting score by Morricone with quite a dark mood, flowing from the dramatic to psychedelic along with a touch of funkiness. The famous "Città violenta" track, the score…
