The Earth and the sky are the only entities that unite past, present, and future. The man has always scrutinized the immensity of the space above him. Night after night, linking the bright stars together, the ancient populations of our planet imagined they could translate their myths and religious beliefs into the constellations, ordering today's eighty-eight and calculating with incredible precision, despite the meager tools available, both time and cosmic cycles. From the proliferation of superstitions to the establish of the sciences, the journey has been long and sometimes problematic. The space only still "imagined" with naked eyes, or observed with rudimentary telescopes, has slowly become "conquerable" and, since the '60s of the last century, at the center of an international competition between the two superpowers, the United States and the Soviet Union. From the first satellite launched into orbit at the man's landing on the Moon, successful facts have multiplied. Many artists, at any latitude or longitude, tried to "confront" themselves with spatial themes. The composer Giuliano Sorgini is among them. Some tracks of this unreleased album composed in 1973 represent, in fact, an attempt to fill with notes the distances that separate man from infinity, through "itineraries" that do not indicate a precise destination such as, for example, "Upwards", "Outer", and "Thought". Others, instead, describe events that are impossible to be seized, such as "Death Of A Comet", breathtaking landscapes to observe as you float in the air like astronauts tied to the "umbilical cord" of their own spaceship, just think of "Into The Space Immensity" and "Sweet Trance", even human and non-human presences, with the opener "Man In The Space" and the romantic "Ufo" as further demonstrations of the artist's genius. Each track tells what is possible, although invisible to many. Creativity compensates for reality. The sounds of Giuliano Sorgini delicately invest the listener, favoring his immersion in a third dimension, in which elements of classical and electronic music, both with a strong communicative character, are merged and continually mixed up, between echoes and reverberations in the background. The prolonged repetition of tones and the almost imperceptible timbral variations don't hinder the harmonic weaving, explained by piano and flute, or the obscure psychedelic solutions adopted by the composer resulting from an appropriate use of the first synthesizers.

The previously unreleased -- on vinyl -- original full soundtrack of the occult 1975 film directed by Elio Pannacciò, composed by Giuliano Orgini. The result of a co-production between Sonor Music Editions and the historical Digitmovies label for a strict limited edition of 300 copies worldwide with a stunning artwork designed by Luca Barcellona. A very obscure and macabre score about exorcism and the struggle between good and evil written by the cult composer that provides insane, spectral horror music with a hallucinatory mix of demoniac atmospheres, dark beats and refrains, abstract and fearful themes with Edda Dell'Orso's distinct scary vocals. A totally trippy session broken up by huge driving grooves that unleashes the demons force. Remastered from the original master tapes for the delight of horror film fans and featuring the original recording session tracklisting.

Sonor Music Editions present a reissue of Giuliano Sorgini's Lavoro E Tempo Libero, originally released on Goldfinger in 1980. A highly sought-after Italian library jewel with mental disco-funk cuts and sleazy grooves. The music here was used to score various documentaries for Italian Rai TV, Lavoro E Tempo Libero by the eclectic maestro Giuliano Sorgini is another stellar recording from the comprehensive Italian library world, very different from his '70s masterpieces like 1971's Under Pompelmo (CNLP 037LP) or 1974's Zoo Folle, but with a perfect early '80s sound and clear funky greatness mixed with some very beautiful chill jams. An insane set of dark funk bangers filled with drum breaks and beats, different refined moods with soothing airs and lounge-y suites, exquisite flute notes by Nino Rapicavoli, along with sharp guitars and sleazy basslines. Easily one of the top albums out of library labels Usignolo/Goldifinger. Renewed artwork. Remastered sound from the original tape. 180 gram vinyl; Editions of 500.

2016 release. Giuliano Sorgini is best known for his original soundtracks for The Living Dead At The Manchester Morgue, Zoo Folle, and Gli Animali "Che Simpatia". For Un Urlo Dalle Tenebre, he composed some very macabre avant-garde background music to describe the struggle between good and evil. He created sound effects to represent hell, abstract pieces, and fearful effects where the recognizable voice of Edda Dell'Orso intervenes. There is also organ music for the exorcist priest and a Gregorian flavor. These suspenseful passages are alternated with pop and country music which breaks up the atmosphere of demonic terror. Originally RCA had assembled a promotional LP master containing eleven tracks which was intended for a music library. Using the master tapes from the original recording session (including the LP) Digitmovies found other previously unreleased material, such as alternate versions of those included on the album, which enabled the label to make this CD to the delight of horror film fans. Directed in 1975 by Elio Pannacciò, the film starred Richard Conte, Patrizia Gori, Mimma Monticelli, Françoise Prévost, Elena Svevo, and Jean Claude Verne. Barbara and her son Peter live in a town in Lazio. Barbara's sister, Sister Elena, is a missionary in Africa who returns when she finds out her brother has fallen victim to a mysterious hysterical attack that Dr. Ferri believes is just hysteria, despite the negative results of the analysis. Meanwhile Cherry, Peter's girlfriend, mysteriously gets her throat cut during a reception and Barbara gets killed by being pushed down the stairs. Sister Elena confides in priest Don Luigi that the she believes Peter is possessed by a demon, according to some obscure facts of witchcraft from 1723. The priest calls an exorcist expert from America who performs a ritual to free Peter of the demon. However, the demon moves on to possess Sister Elena who then throws herself off a cliff.
