2016 release ** "Paul Roland’s obsession with the 1931 film White Zombie, starring Bela Lugosi, a true cult of voodoo cinema, led him in the 90s to write the basis of what should have been the film’s soundtrack, rewritten by Roland. It was mostly instrumental music, with songs and choirs that depicted the slavery of these men reduced by the mad scientist to zombies, automatons to increase the workforce in the factories. A rather current theme, outside of metaphor… Talking about it one evening at dinner with the producer Max Marchini, the idea was born to rework the original tapes, transfiguring them into something truly new and original for the long and honored career of the English songwriter. According to the Dark Companion school, of which Unifaun Productions is a subsidiary, Roland's pop music has undergone a process of revisiting with tribal percussions that refer to "Eskimo" by the Residents, oblique guitars and avant-garde spices that have embellished the songs, also making use of the collaboration of Italian musicians and friends among whom we mention the avant-garde vocalist Paola Tagliaferro who contributed to the incidental music by covering the lead voice of the High Priestess. Among the guests Annie Barbazza, former collaborator of Greg Lake and John Greaves, Paolo Tofani of Area, the Warm Morning Brothers, Lorenzo 3k Trecordi, Camillo Mozzoni (Lino Capra Vaccina's oboe), Beppe Lombardo and others. The chants were so successful that they pushed Roland to write some new extraordinary songs on the voodoo theme with a vaguely psychedelic flavour to which the aforementioned musicians were able to give a truly surprising form, so much so that Roland declared that this White Zombie is the work that has most satisfied him in his entire career."
