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…

Ironmaster is a movie directed by Umberto Lenzi in 1983 and it talks about Vud’s deeds, a cruel tribal chief exiled by his own peers. With the help of a brutal iron sword, forged in a volcanic fire he will be storming the lands imposing his rule up to the moment Ela and a group of rebels will find the way to contrast him. The film, centered on the claim given by various Conan the Barbarian movies featured in the cast actors such as William Berger and Luigi Montefiori, the music was composed by t…

Almost 40 years after its theatrical debut, Cabum and Beat Records release for the first time ever the complete score for the movie Alien 2 Sulla Terra (1980, Ciro Ippolito), one of the most obscure films in the Italian horror/sci-fi realm, an apocryphal sequel to the iconic Alien by Ridley Scott, released just a few months prior. One of the most sought-after soundtracks by Guido & Maurizio De Angelis fans, it is a prominent sample of the experimental style of the two composers that would featur…

In 1980, Alfonso Brescia directed a weird sci-fi film starring Shirpa Lane, Venantino Venantini and the mythical Zork, a robot that's missing some gears that administer a planet full of Antalium (precious stuff, indeed) in a singular way. This is the plot upon which M° Giombini is called to compose a score, and considering the story, his strong experience in the field of experimental electronic music will prove to be the winning choice that will provide the movie with an enjoyable soundtrack. We…

25 years after the move Thunder by Larry Ludman (Fabrizio De Angelis), Beat Records releases the complete remastered score (with some never released before tracks) both of "Thunder" and Thunder 3. These are two excellent works of Francesco De Masi whose atmospheres range from western to thrilling with romantic dives and arrangements that go from big orchestra and sometimes mix a classic style with electronic synts. Everything done without never abandoning the elegant and sinphonic stile that alw…

2017 marks the 90th year since the birth of Lucio Fulci, a great director and artisan of the camera. Highly regarded for his stylistic contributions to the world of cinema, his movies are always notable for their expressive originality and great soundtracks. Such is the case with the purebred - or better, pure-furred - Cat in the Brain, which, according to Antonella Fulci, represents in the Roman director's body of work his cinematic cover version of ''My Way,'' a movie of excessive extremes wit…

In this double-bill dedicated to the work of maestro John Sposito, we present two rare scores composed by him in 1987 for two diametrically different films by Mario Bianchi: Riflessi di luce (Reflections Of Light) and Non aver paura della zia Marta (aka The Broken Mirror and Don't Be Afraid Of Aunt Martha). The first is a softcore drama starring the beautiful Pamela Prati, the second a horror feature presented on TV by Lucio Fulci - two movies with alternate fates that have the artistry of the R…

Parbleu is a five-piece from Naples led by Andres Balbucea and Andrea De Fazio, and this single is the first look at the music they have been working on for several years, a Mediterranean dance music built on equatorial grooves. Elegua is named after the Orisha of crossroads and destiny in the Santería tradition. Layered Afro-Caribbean percussion and circling harmonies rest on warm analogue synthesizers, the vocals follow the call and response of Yoruba praise chants, and a girls' choir and a ch…

Italian space disco album Automat by Automat.

Released in 1978 by EMI Italia, the album has been produced by two veteran italian songwriters and composers, Romano Musumarra and Claudio Gizzi, after meeting Mario Maggi, one of the major innovators in the manufacturing of electronic instruments in Italy. Maggi invented t…
