The Spacey Bruce Lacey: Film Music and Improvisations Vol. 1
LP version, vol 1. Bruce Lacey is the quintessential British eccentric. Bruce Lacey is an artist, a musician, a filmmaker, a shaman, a genius and visionary. Since the 1950s he's made film, music, art and performances, and collaborated with everyone from The Beatles to Throbbing Gristle. He was part of the groundbreaking Cybernetic Serendipity exhibition in 1968. He even built a robot that won the Alternative Miss World. This is the first time his extraordinary music has been released. Made …
Cold Worlds
last copies around....A collection of Horror-Electronics, supernatural soundscapes and sinister library muzak from Australian composer Don Harper. Centring on the library music re-recording of the 1968 Doctor Who soundtrack The Invasion (A dark otherworldly Sci-Fi jazz suite) Cold Worlds is also a focus on the electronic music of this largely unsung composer. Like many Australian film composers (Ron Grainer, Dudley Simpson, Don Banks) Don Harper based himself in the UK during the 1960…
Cybotron
**pre-order: available in 2 weeks**Part Man Part Machine, Cybotron was the synthesis of progressive rock and electronic music experimentation. Conceived by pioneers of the Australian electronic underground, Steve Maxwell Von Braund and keyboardist Geoff Green, together they produced a series of mind-altering cosmic albums throughout the 1970s which set the tone for the Minimal wave and electronic post punk scene of early 1980s Melbourne. Part Tangerine Dream, part Ash Ra Tempel, Cybo…
Turkey Shoot
**pre-order: available in 2 weeks** The notorious 1982 Australian film, Turkey Shoot (Also known as Escape 2000 in the US and Blood Camp Thatcher in the UK) has long been considered the ultimate of Australian Video Nasties. Set in a dystopian future where a totalitarian regime imprison a group of ‘deviants’ to a high security prison destined for rehabilitation and social re-programming. The story involves the group of inmates fleeing from the camp controlled by the draconian warden, a …
A Quiet Place In The Country
The missing link in the Morricone / Gruppo discography. Their original unreleased avant / cacophonic score to Elio Petri's manic Artsploitation masterpiece was the first and last time Morricone and Il Gruppo would co-sign an OST/session. Conducted by Bruno Nicolai with vocalisations by Edda Dell’Orso and drums by Vincenzo Restuccia, A Quiet Place In The Country is an historic (and quite forgotten) recording that sees Il Gruppo in their key gestational phase just prior to recordings for Deut…
Kill!
Fuzz guitars, go-go beats, weird exotic soundscapes and Doris Troy (of ‘Dark Side Of The Moon’ fame) screaming about gizzards. Only in Rome, only in 1971. Brilliant but overlooked composer Berto Pisano and (we suspect) his no less talented brother Franco (working under a pseudonym) to craft the perfect score for this drug-fuelled piece of cinematic mayhem. Recorded at the Orthophonic Recording Studio, Roma 1971 and remastered in 2014 from the original stereo album master tapes this LP includes 2…
Una Farfalla Con Le Ali Insanguinate
Lucky warehouse find, few copies available of the legendary (and terrific) soundtrack to Duccio Tessari\'s excellent giallo from 1971, The Bloodstained Butterfly. \"Fantastic! Easy Tempo scores again with this beautiful rerelease/repackaging of Gianni Ferrio\'s lost score for the film Una Farfalla Con Le Ali Insanguinate. The music has lots of spare spooky keyboards, with a slow building sound that\'s similar to Francis Lai\'s best soundtrack work, and a warm wash of sound that\'s very si…
Profondo Rosso
Few copies, coming from a dead stock. This 1975 soundtrack made an impressive debut for Goblin, a legendary group of Italian soundtrack specialists. Originally known as "the Cherry Five," this quintet was commissioned by Italian director Dario Argento to create a soundtrack for his terrifying thriller Profondo Rosso. The resulting album took the group to the top of the Italian charts and helped them build a worldwide cult reputation. Profondo Rosso is an ambitious affair that blends jazz, prog r…
Giu' La Testa
Few copies available, coming from a dead stock. With classic films like The Good, the Bad and the Ugly and Once Upon a Time in the West, Sergio Leone built his reputation as a master of the Western. A key part of these film's unique style was their soundtracks, all of which were crafted by Ennio Morricone: his singular mixture of avant-garde quirks, pop instrumentation, and traditional orchestral romanticism played a crucial role in helping Leone redefine what audiences expected from a Wes…
Indagine Su Un Cittadino Al Di Sopra Di Ogni Sospetto
Few copies, coming from a dead stock. The phenomenal Italian composer's obscure work for horror, kitsch, and thriller films from his native land is somewhat overlooked in the canon of the man who gave signature to spaghetti Westerns. Such an enormous amount of work in the life of this genius composer is chronicled in cinema and, thanks to Dagored, many of these obscurities are being reissued on vinyl and CD, remastered straight from the original Cinevox archives. His work for the 1970 Ital…
Tenebre
Few copies available, coming from a dead stock. This pulse-pounding thriller score occupies an odd place in the history of Italian prog rock legends Goblin: although this isn't an official Goblin album, it was crafted by three of the group's four members under the moniker Simonetti, Morante, Pignatelli. Ironically, it has a stronger Goblin-esque feel to it than the last few official Goblin scores that proceeded it. It's no coincidence that this 1982 score marked a reunion with Dario Argento, the…
Metti Una Sera A Cena
Few copies coming from a dead stock. For a late-'60s Morricone soundtrack this is a little on the bland, easy listening side. But it's at the very least pleasant, and there are the occasional streaks of eccentricity to be heard here and there. The majority of the tracks are dainty and sunny, if lushly orchestrated, sometimes decorated with Edda Dell'Orso's female vocal scatting, as if to suggest the dawning of a new romance as the curtains are raised on a sparkling Mediterranean day. Some …
Svezia Inferno e Paradiso
Svezia, Inferno e Paradiso is one of the most important scores in Piero Umiliani's lengthy career. He was an eclectic and internationally attentive artist, capable of genial expressions through jazz (I Soliti Ignoti), pop-funk (Baba Yaga, La Ragazza Fuoristrada), Western (Crisantemi Per Un Branco di carogne) and even electronic experimentation (such as his score for the unknown TV serial Il Mondo dei Romani, 1972).Director Luigi Scattini, whose partnership with Piero Umiliani was also a friendsh…
Terrore Nello Spazio
Restocked, few copies available of this superbly sinister musical score by Gino Marinuzzi Jr. fans of early electronic should appreciate this excellent release. "It 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 striking orchestral passages, written in an atonal mode but fully accessible -- strings and percussion instruments shimmer and swell, and wind, reed, and horn…
Tutti i colori del buio
As part of a devoted series of releases focusing on Bruno Nicolai’s soundtrack music to the films of Edwige Fenech, Finders Keepers proudly unveil what is perhaps the crowning moment for both actress and composer with the film that inaugurated them (alongside director Sergio Martino) into the critical Giallo royal family in the early 1970s. Presented here with previously unpressed tracks as an alternative to the extremely rare 1973 Gemelli library edition, this Finders Keepers special release in…
Abnormal Sensations
Lucky restock, few copies available Collectively known under their production pop group moniker The Pawnshop, Italian Giallo/Spaghetti legends Alessandro Alessandroni, Giuliano Sorgini and Giulia De Mutiis (using their Giallo-psych alter egos of Braen, Raskovich and Kema) would reconvene behind the curtain in 1973 to craft this lost full-length LP as a mythical addition to their tiny group discography.Pin-pointing a bona fide crossroads between the composers’ individual library grails The Under…
Il Mondo dei Romani
Restocked!! "Il mondo dei romani" is one of Maestro Piero Umiliani's most atypical sound library/synch albums, recorded in 1972 during a period of great electronic experimentation (partly because of production reasons, partly responding to an immense desire to express his creative skills). Unique in his discography, the album joins paradigmatic Roman classicism with the most genuine electronic experimentation, which in some parts reminds us of Kraftwerk. A great follow-up to the electro-synth so…
Tra Scienza e Fantascienza
Restocked!! "Tra scienza e fantascienza", is an album of histrionic Piero Umiliani recorded under the pseudonym Moggi. A Master gifted with a never ending passion for music, innovator by vocation, experimenter in his genetic code now at ease with synths in order to forge sound that could be reductively termed as avantgarde. Timeless atmospheres, alien hypnotic sonorities, modern and charmingly retro, minimal and complex arranged with an impressive taste for the unknown substance the Maestro…
Black Emanuelle: Orient Reportage
Nico Fidenco's 'Black Emanuelle: Orient Reportage' aka 'Black Emanuelle Goes East' is one of the seminal soundtracks that will set you on an Italian groove odyssey! The film is probably the most depraved of all the volumes of the Emanuelle series. Maestro Fidenco relies heavily on layered strings, horns, flutes, violins and an array of exotic instruments and aims for eclecticism in playing with versions of the main theme. No one is ever the same after... 'Black Emanuelle'! 45RPM audiophil…
