Taken from GLI ANGELI DEL 2000 OST by Mario Molino, ASH is an ace uptempo dancefloor burner, provided by a great brass section, and sung by the fabulous Edda Dell’Orso.On the flip-side is GLI ANGELI DEL 2000 - a lysergic Italian version of Pierre Henry’s retro-futuristic “Psyché Rock" anthem, featuring bells, fat bass lines, wah wah guitar, and electronic effects.Limited Edition 300 of copies.

Presenting for the first time on vinyl - three tracks taken from one of the most obscure and fascinating scores by Stelvio Cipriani, recorded in 1980 for Joe D’Amato’s exotic-erotic classic, ORGASMO NERO.“Seq. 1” is an incredible afrocosmic cinematic track, driven by superb conga work and other percussive instruments.Side B features the funkier “Seq. 3” (mid-tempo) and “Seq. 5” (downtempo) - both sexy and mysterious at the same time. Deep, obsessive atmospheres, blending together tropical colors, tribal vibes, and evocative moods.

The infamous Italian sexy-comedy genre now has its own saucy compilation.21 cuts, including 13 tracks never published before on any format, taken from the finest original soundtracks of the genre. From groovy disco bangers and charming jazz-funk, sleazylistening and rock blends, to analogue electronic experiments, these iconic sounds embody the essence of the Italian movie industry at the end of the 70s. Pure “aerobic groove" that spells out the melodic action of female starlets like Gloria Guida, Edwige Fenech, Nadia Cassini, Lilli Carati, and all the other heroines in this genre of filmwhose main task was not only to tease and undress, but to dance on the screen.Featuring unreleased soundtracks by Alessandro Alessandroni, Fabio Frizzi, Pulsar Music Ltd., Gianni Ferrio, Franco Micalizzi, Franco Campanino, Nico Fidenco, Giacomo Dell’Orso, and for the first time on vinyl, music by Enrico Simonetti, Walter Rizzati, and Detto Mariano.

This retro-futuristic Italian classic from the cosmic era is now finally reissued in a double LP edition that will surely bring joy to DJs worldwide. Underrated jazz musician and composer Gianni Safred is one of the great pioneers of Italian electronic music, and had proven his talent in a couple of ultra-rare and highly sought-after library records released by renowned Italian label Music Scene.FUTURIBILE was the second of the batch, composed and recorded in 1978 in his Trieste-based studio, using Minimoog, Polymoog, Arp Odyssey, Arp Omni, Fender Rhodes, Sequencer Roland, Space Echo Roland, and accompanied by a solid drum section. The whole album is crazy, with spooky and mysterious grooves that sounds both modern and danceable. An incredible electronic disco-jazz album, full of deep breaks and beats, along with dope overlapping synths, resulting in minimalistic proto-house tunes.A record that will take you both back in time and forward into the future. These sounds are suitable for space travels, space exploration, experiments, fantastic adventures, future enterprises, interplanetary stories, important achievements, industrial accomplishments of broad implications, modern scientific discoveries, and new industrial events.

A n d w h a t i f t h e i n f a m o u s UNDERGROUND and OVERGROUND albums had a third psychedelic chapter, still secret and unreleased until today?Yes, you heard correctly: this SUPERGROUND LP is sonically akin to the legendary pair for which composer Sandro Brugnolini will always shine worldwide, and ideally brings the trilogy to a close. Composed and recorded in two sessions between July 1969 and November 1970, the album echoes the shocking 1969's Charles Manson massacre, with tracks dedicated to the villa at Cielo Drive, in Hollywood, where Sharon Tate e Roman Polanski lived for six months. Some music was also used for an animated short movie signed by Pino Zac, “Radice Quadrata di 3”, a little art-film gem about the consumer society.The recordings have all in common the terrific line up, featuring MARC 4 members Antonello Vannucchi (organ), Maurizio Majorana (bass), Roberto Podio (drums), along with Angelo Baroncini (guitar) replacing Carlo Pes. An incredible groovy combo that plays a strange psychedelic rock and r’n’b with funky and prog flavor.Another lost masterpiece from Italian golden age soundtracks finally rescued and brought back in life to see the light of the wax for its very first time.

Another amazing 7-inch! Two heavy psychedelic groover tracks, full of crazy percussion, fuzz guitar, and hammond organ all played by MARC 4 and composed by their organist Antonello Vannucchi, and both echoing the immortal In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida riff by Iron Butterfly. RITO A LOS ANGELES was used by Steven Soderbergh in his 2004 film, "Ocean’s Twelve". An amazing and haunting groove that is ideal for DJs & producers.

Stelvio Cipriani | FEMINA RIDENS LP 180gr. wt Hard Tip-On Sleeve If a jewel were to be chosen amongst t h e more than t h r e e hundred soundtracks that Maestro Stelvio Cipriani has composed during his long and prodigious career, that choice would probably not fall on the super classic and hyper known ANONIMO VENEZIANO(the box-office and hitparade champion who triggered the international fame of the Roman musician), but probably on his previous and less celebrated FEMINA RIDENS – perhaps the most iconic of his soundtracks, along with MARK IL POLIZIOTTO. This work is undoubtedly one of those titles that best represents the spirit of Italian golden age film music, and the original LP, published onCAM series SAG - 9017, is at the very top of every collector’s most wanted list. The film, directed in 1969 by Piero Schivazappa, is a feminist parable that blends eros perversion, black comics, and Pop Art. And its mood, halfway between cold and playful tones, is perfectly underlined by Cipriani with a soundtrack that fits flawlessly to the dreamlike, grotesque, and sentimental images, combining classical music and orchestral pop, baroque jazz, spaghetti western flavors, psychedelic blues and lounge vibes – all emphasized with sumptuous arrangements that still sound contemporary. A jewel like "Mary's Theme" is an immortal, timeless track that has been recently sampled by hip-hop producers, and is a demonstration of the eternal modernity of the finest Italian cinematic sound.This reissue fills a serious gap, finally bringing to the forefront an iconic soundtrack that has remained inaccessible on wax far too long. And it does so in the best possible way, starting from the original master tapes preserved in the CAM archives, from where it was possible to locate an unreleased track (added at the end of side B), as well as allow for an enhanced version of "Chorus and Brass Fugato", whose original edit has been improved and extended here. And if that weren’t enough, for all you discerning collectors, as well as DJs, Four Flies is also releasing an extra 7-inch record which includes the two most danceable tracks on the entire OST!
