Taking a short sabbatical from their journey into the spiritual stratosphere and beyond, Work Money Death landed on terra firma just long enough to record a follow up to the critically acclaimed “The Space In Which The Uncontrollable Unknown Resides Can Be The Place From Which Creation Arises”. The new album “Thought, Action, Reaction, Interaction” explores many of the meditative motifs that mould this unique group in their quest for the perfect sound and space. Those who are familiar with Work …
One of the best kept secrets in contemporary British Jazz, Leeds based collective Work Money Death returns to ATA Records with a towering gesture of free improvisation. Born from the loss of guitarist Chris Earl Dawkins, A Portal to Here draws on a deep well of Spiritual Jazz to soar toward new heights of sonic transcendence. Music as testament, tribute, healing and remembrance.
You Can Can is an echoed affirmation, an album which traces song forms around silence, field recordings, and degraded analog memories. This is folk music transmogrified and mutated, as if recorded and reconstructed in Pierre Schaffer’s GRM studio.
Limited edition of 200 LPs with risograph artwork and hand-stamped covers. Sophomore release from Toronto dream-duo Joseph Shabason and Ben Gunning, this time a more cosmopolitan affair, mapping fragmented cityscapes from bent electronics and late-night FM jazz transmissions. The boys are back in town. After recording their debut in a remote cottage in Northern Ontario, the duo relocated their jams to Shabason’s Toronto studio where they gained unlimited access to a virtual cornucopia of analog …

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…
On La cuccagna, Ennio Morricone sketches early‑60s Italian life in miniature: light, bittersweet themes, small‑combo colours and gently ironic swings that mirror a young woman’s fragile hopes inside a consumerist daydream starting to fray.

2xLP Transparent Magenta 180gr + CD | Limited Numbered Edition of 500 copies. April 1969. On screens across Europe, a film opens that looks like an American crime picture but feels like something else entirely. Giuliano Montaldo, the Italian director who would later give us Sacco e Vanzetti and Giordano Bruno, has crossed the Atlantic to shoot a heist thriller in San Francisco and Las Vegas. The cast reads like an inventory of New Hollywood royalty: John Cassavetes, fresh from Rosemary's Baby, a…
“Il Gatto” (The Cat) is a 1977 film, a comedy often tinged with detective story elements that tells about two brothers, played by Ugo Tognazzi (Amedeo Pegoraro) and Mariangela Melato (Ofelia Pegoraro), who cynically do everything they can to get a building they own cleared of all its tenants in order to sell it for a profitable sum.
The soundtrack of this film, directed by Luigi Comencini and produced by Sergio Leone, was entrusted to Maestro Ennio Morricone, who produced a decidedly varied scor…

With Bluebeard (1972), Ennio Morricone explores the gothic absurdity of Edward Dmytryk’s erotic thriller through a score oscillating between melancholy, parody, and psychological unease. By blending chamber restraint and baroque flamboyance, Morricone transforms the infamous tale into a study of decadence, control, and the seductions of death.
In Thrilling, Ennio Morricone’s widescreen sense of drama condenses into a tightly wound suite of themes: tense strings, ghostly choirs and razor‑edged rhythm figures that turn suspense into something almost voluptuously atmospheric.
Quartet Records and Universal Pictures Film Music Classics Collection proudly present the world premiere release of Ennio Morricone’s charming score for Virna Lisi’s 1967 romantic-comedy Arabella, directed by Mauro Bolognini and also starring Terry-Thomas (in multiple roles), James Fox and Margaret Rutherford. This was Morricone’s first collaboration with Bolognini, marking the beginning of a long relationship spanning three decades and producing some of the Roman maestro’s finest and most roman…
"L'Ultimo Treno della Notte" (Last Stop on the Night Train) is a 1975 thriller film directed by Aldo Lado, one of the most violent movies ever produced in Italy in the '70s (and beyond) that actually shows, even in the crudest scenes, for same admission of the director, a harsh attack against the bourgeois society and its powerful rich people. Despite the limited budget, the friendship between Aldo Lado and composer Ennio Morricone made this collaboration possible; nonetheless, only a 45rpm 7" w…
Quartet Records, in collaboration with Universal Music Publishing Italia and EMI Music Publishing, presents a meticulously remastered reissue of Ennio Morricone's fascinating score for Folco Quilici's Oceano (1971), a pseudo-documentary film that stands as one of the most unique and spiritually profound projects in both filmmakers' careers.

“Sacco e Vanzetti” is a 1971 dramatic movie directed by Giuliano Montaldo and masterfully starred by the two lead actors Gian Maria Volonté and Riccardo Cucciolla; the film deals with the ever-popular topic of the death penalty by recounting a real event that caused quite a stir at the time: the sentencing to the electric chair of two Italian immigrants who were executed in 1927 after a seven-year trial.
For “Sacco & Vanzetti” Ennio Morricone composed one of the most intense scores of his long a…
Circling guitar lines; the rise of fall of delicate bass; deep, breathy horns: sonic elements that exist in a state of slow, perpetual motion, like ideas sprouting from some kind of cognitive compost. With wonder and charm, G. S. Schray's new solo album, Whispered Something Good, evokes a realm of new growth while offering a fitting soundtrack for its exploration, as if tailor made for both the daydreamer and silly adventurer. We start in the darkness of "Unlit Center" with elliptical phrases of…
With this new project, their fourth full-length work, Tupperwear completely departs from the "stylish" electronics and trends to delve into a profound exploration of the fundamentals of music. It involves a quest or even a game through the extrapolation of geometry into various musical parameters, encompassing classical aspects like pitch, timbre, rhythm, intensity, etc., as well as noise, textures, or the implicit mathematics in natural or irrational elements. Pentagonono delves into cosmology …
Other Minds is excited to bring you an EP of two archival works from Bay Area composer Charles Boone. Both pieces take their inspiration and titles from man-made landmarks across California. Solar One from a monumental power station near the desert city of Barstow, The Watts Towers from Simon Rodia’s outsider art masterpiece in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Watts. In much of his work, the composer seeks to create sonic landscapes that are simultaneously static and dynamic. Certain elements, ha…
