UST 7011 - Popfolkmusic
In stock. Originally released on Fonit Cetra Hi-Fi International series in 1973, this mega-rare Italian Library still unknown in the record collectors circle features some of the most insane grooves made in Italy. Outstanding, spaced-out Breakbeats with the best uptempo, Hip Hop beats and B-boy Funk tunes you could ever desire, alternated by Easy Listening scores and happy Synthesizer themes. This killer prolific duo (Brugnolini-Carnini) have pulled out in the early 70s some of the most insane t…
UST 7013
Another legendary jam on Fonit Library series 'Hi-Fi International' composed by maestro Stelvio Cipriani. Probably written for some obscure movie, this infamous session from 1976 recently discovered immediately became a grail for DJs and collectors. Outstanding Score vibes, several Western and Romantic movie themes in the vein of Ennio Morricone are alternated by some insane beats and spacey Avant-garde. The mindmelting groove of "Notte delle streghe" is an incredible Experimental arrangement of…
Chinatown (1974 Original Soundtrack)
Sometimes, it doesn’t take very long to create something brilliant. When producer Robert Evans rejected Phillip Lambro’s original score for Chinatown, Jerry Goldsmith was hired to create another, from scratch, in just 10 days.
To say he rose to the challenge is an understatement. Goldsmith, a 20 year veteran of the TV and movie industry with credits including Dr Kildare, Planet Of The Apes and even The Waltons theme, turned in a work that was both a career peak for him and the saviour of Roman…
Salem's Lot (1979 Original Soundtrack)
Waxwork Records is thrilled to announce the double LP soundtrack release of SALEM’S LOT. Directed by TOBE HOOPER (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Poltergeist) and adapted from the novel by STEPHEN KING, SALEM’S LOT originally aired as a two-part miniseries on CBS in 1979. Since then, the film has reached cult classic status and is regarded as one of the greatest vampire films ever made thanks to its creepy atmosphere, gripping story-line, and chilling climax.
Waxwork Records presents, for the f…
Tim Maia 1971
The second studio album from legendary singer and composer Tim Maia continues the groundbreaking blend of soul and Música Popular Brasileira started with his first release a year earlier. Although 'Não Quero Dinheiro (Só Quero Amar)' was a massive hit (and covered many times over), the album is full of gems, from the tough fuzz funk of 'Não Vou Ficar' to the sweet soul perfection of 'I Don't Know What To Do With Myself.' For the first time, this reissue also includes the single-only hit 'Chocola…
Tim Maia 1970
The first studio album by legendary singer and composer Tim Maia, picked by Rolling Stone Brazil as one of the top 25 greatest Brazilian albums of all time, changed the game by seamlessly combining popular Brazilian music, MPB, with the brassy soul sound associated with Memphis. In addition to Maia classics 'Azul Da Cor Du Mar,' 'Coroné Antonio Bento' and 'Primavera,' highlights include the funk-meets-baião 'Padre Cicero' and the soulful 'Cristina.'
Obnoxius
LP version. 180 gram vinyl with obi strip. Far Out Recordings present a reissue of Jose Mauro's forgotten masterpiece Obnoxius, recorded in 1970 for Quartin. Over the course of the '60s, Roberto Quartin released more than 20 albums in Brazil on his label Forma, by artists including the likes of Eumir Deodato and Quateto Em Cy. Selling the rights of Forma to Polygram in 1969, Quartin struck out for pastures new at the dawn of the 1970s with the launch of his self-titled label. Significant works a…
B85 - Ballabili “Anni ’70” Pop Country
**CD version** Although library music has always had the purpose of accompanying TV and radio shows, documen- taries and TV news, it is difficult to track down most of these masterpieces composed by some of the greatest composers of those years. Anonymity is one of the distinctive traits of this music genre, being in most cases difficult, if not impossible, to find out where these tracks had been used. The liner notes of these works often spark the reader’s curiosity: the notes are in fact detai…
B81 Ballabili Anni 70 Underground
**CD version** Due to an overwhelming number of reissues and to the steady and meticulous work of collectors and passionate music lovers who have been spreading the word about it, the realm of Italian library music has moved from being some kind of hidden cult to becoming a well defined niche. Authors such as Alessandroni, Umiliani, Sciascia, Tommasi and Sorgini have become more accessible to the uninitiated, while prices of the original presses of their records keep surging.Among the multitude …

Fly To Brazil
Strerath is a pianist of European calibre and he has won numerous prizes since 1967. The Walter Strerath Trio played at many Jazz Festivals in Europe and they were invited to play at Newport in the early 1970s. On this 1975 session they explore the music of Brazil. The Bossa Nova is sort of a feed-back of North-American jazz with its drive, blues and beat compared to Brazilian samba with its “joie de vivre” and optimism. The Walter Strerath Trio commands this synthesis between North and So…
Carnet Turistico
From the legendary Deneb series, one of the grooviest Italian library ever. Amedeo Tommasi and Gerardo Iacoucci (alias H. Caiage) at their best. An explosion of heavy organ sounds, jazz & psych-beat, with killer drumming breaks and mellow tunes
Confessione di un commissario di Polizia...
Ortolani in a grand groove! A totally great record – every bit the gem you might expect from the legendary Maestro: a journey through landscapes of sound rather than a collection of musical pieces, with instrumental arrangements that are able to conjure an atmosphere so haunting and obscure it may swallow your soul. The music is mainly bass-infused with all the best styles of the very early 70s on keyboards and electric guitar – used on these jaunty pieces that are somewhere between groovy…
Il Deserto
Thanks God, this gem is available again, and in vinyl format; short print run of 300 copies only, so don't sleep. Cinedelic Records present a reissue of Egisto Macchi's Il Deserto, originally released in 1974. This incredible double album recorded in 1974 is truly an astounding experimental mystical trip to the desert. It is the rarest avant-garde music library by Egisto Macchi (founding member of Gruppo di Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza) and surely one of the most interesting and intriguing …
Contrastes
A straighter album than some of the early experimental work of Jards Macale – but maybe a greater album as well – and one that really shows the singer coming into his own, and finding a way to nestle his fresh ideas within the best settings of 70s MPB! The shift's a bit like the maturation some of his contemporaries were going through at the time – like Caetano Veloso or Gal Costa – reaching for a new level of sophistication in his arrangements, which might tie him back to older historical modes…
Jards Macale
An incredible album by one of our favorite Brazilian artists! This gem from 1972 is an album that we'd rank right up there with work by Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil, or Lo Borges from the same time – with an underground singer/songwriter style, performed in a manner that mixes rock and jazz styles, but all with a rough edge and a very rootsy feel. Macale is an enormous talent that's always been woefully overlooked by listeners outside of Brazil – but he's one of the greatest talents of the 70s, …
Sima!
During the 1970s, Tilahun Gessesse enjoyed a successful career in his native Ethiopia. Blessed with a sublime voice, he specialized in creating popular hybrids of hot American styles - most notably soul and jazz - with traditional Ethiopian styles. Sima!, which is named after one of his most revered 7" singles, gather together music from numerous releases throughout the 1970s. It boasts numerous gems that see Gessesse combine his bold, snaking vocals with rocking rhythms, modal jazz mysticism, a…
Interrabang
Dagored present a reissue of Berto Pisano's soundtrack for the 1969 film Interrabang, originally released in 1970. Berto Pisano was a bass player, composer, arranger and Italian conductor. Among the interesting soundtracks he composed, there is certainly a major spot reserved for Interrabang, the cult giallo/erotic film of 1969 which at the time was quite out of the box, as it matched the exotic-erotic genre with the psychological thriller. Strong jazzy themes supported by strings, vibraph…
Amer (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)
We Release Whatever The Fuck We Want Records presents the first ever vinyl release of the soundtrack for Hélène Cattet and Bruno Forzani's critically-acclaimed Belgian-French giallo Amer (2009). Filled with superb compositions by Italian movie score legends Ennio Morricone, Stelvio Cipriani, and Bruno Nicolai, all remastered for hardcore audiophile appreciation. Described by The New York Times as "a surreal cinematic tone poem that pays slavering homage to Italian giallo horror films of the 1970…
