Omaggio Ad Einstein
Deluxe LP edition pressed on yellow vinyl and presented in custom "big hole" jacket“Omaggio ad Einstein”, among the many albums of electronic music composed by Piero Umiliani, has a very relevant place. In this homage to the German physicist, Umiliani subverts the rules of space and time in music and creates an album with 23 compositions, all of them less than 2 minutes long, instead of following the traditional 7-10 tracks usually present in an LP. This is an original and experimental albu…
Cosa Avete Fatto a Solange?
One of Ennio Morricone's greatest giallo scores was composed for Massimo Dallamano's 1972 film Cosa avete fatto a Solange? (What Have You Done to Solange?). This complex soundtrack features moody instrumentals, unusual rhythms, and sharp horns, and it includes some surprisingly playful pieces of music as well. This score is one of Morricone's most experimental and it's also one of his darkest, which makes it nicely complementary to Dallamano's deeply disturbing film. This is the first reiss…

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…
