Long before Elon Musk reached for the stars with his SpaceX project, a Swabian engineer by the name of Lutz Kayser harbored his own childhood dream of a voyage into space. Fly Rocket Fly - Mit Macheten Zu Den Sternen ("To The Stars With Machetes") tells the remarkable story of how he and a dedicated band of Stuttgart engineers founded the world's first private space exploration enterprise: Orbital Transport-und Raketen Aktiengesellschaft, or OTRAG (Orbital Transport and Rockets Inc.). Having enlisted Wernher von Braun as scientific adviser, this early start-up developed a rocket in the late 1960s on the principle of low cost rather than high tech. Windscreen wiper motors were deployed in valve control systems, for example. Kayser's search for a suitable development site led him to African dictator Mobutu Sese Seko who signed off on a deal to allow OTRAG to establish a launch facility in the Congolese jungle. OTRAG built their very own German Cape Canaveral in an area the size of the former GDR, complete with its own butcher's shop and marijuana plantation. They successfully launched several rockets to suborbital altitude before the global political crisis of the mid-1970s put an end to OTRAG's activities. Nobody wanted to see German rockets in the skies over the African jungle (or anywhere else) 30 years after the war -- Fly Rocket Fly is a madcap mix of adventure, political thriller, farce and economic drama -- somewhere between Fitzcarraldo (1982), The Wages of Fear (1953) and Tintin: Explorers On The Moon. The documentary's soundtrack, to be released on Hamburg-based label Bureau B, features songs by the likes of ESB, Camera, Conrad Schnitzler, Günter Schickert, Die Wilde Jagd, as well as new productions from film composer Heiko Maile. Also features Solyst, Dennis Young, Rolf Trostel, and Moebius Neumeier Engler. CD version includes three bonus tracks.

"Perseverance Records is proud to announce the reissue of the soundtrack to The Exorcist, one of horror's best and most frightening films of all time. This is another release straight from the Warner/Elektra/Atlantic vaults -- remastered. Back in 1973, not only was this film released during the Christmas holiday season, it freaked out audiences like nothing that came before (well, maybe Night of the Living Dead!). For many audiences seeing Linda Blair make obscene gestures to Father Karras and puking green stuff, it was a shock and something not seen that often in movies around that time. One thing everybody remembers about the film is Mike Oldfield's 'Tubular Bells'. Also featured on the soundtrack are classical pieces by Krysztof Penderecki, Anton Webern and Hans Werner Henze. This was remastered by Warner Bros Records for release by our label. It sounds excellent like all of our previous Warner reissues. 'We tried and did not convince the label to let us include Lalo Schifrin's score. Warner wanted us to release the original LP (and later Japanese import CD version). However, we thought that most people would prefer the Tubular Bells version, as that one had been out of print for quite some time.' As usual, we want these to be reasonably priced for collectors who missed out as well as the non-collector who saw the movie and loved the music. There will only be 3,000 copies manufactured. We will not make any more after we reach that total.' We used the original LP art. As with all of our reissues from Warner, please remember we price these to be reasonable so that collectors can get a good, remastered edition of this wonderful music to enjoy. This keeps the prices reasonable so that nobody has to pay exorbitant amounts on Ebay or Amazon Marketplace. Enjoy!'"

Double LP version. 140 gram vinyl. Gatefold sleeve. Includes liner notes (French and English). WRWTFWW Records announce the release of two never-released-before soundtracks by French award-winning composer, audio experimenter, electroacoustic, and musique concrète magician, and all-around sound visionary Bernard Parmegiani, sourced from the original reels, and with English and French liner notes. Les Soleils De l'Île De Pâques (1972), by French director Pierre Kast, is a sci-fi feature which secured itself a well-deserved place in the pantheon of mysterious cult films thanks to hallucinatory (and superb) cinematography, exploration of supernatural phenomenon and occult symbolism, and one hell of a trippy atmosphere. La Brûlure De Mille Soleils (1965) also comes from Pierre Kast, but this time with the help of none other than writer, photographer, multimedia artist, homme à tout faire Chris Marker -- notably known for films La Jetée (1962), A Grin Without a Cat (1977), and Sans Soleil (1983) -- who edited this bizarre short to brain-melting results that live up to the promises of its synopsis: A depressed millionaire poet, accompanied by his cat Marcel and a sign language robot, travels in time to shake a persistent feeling of ennui and falls hopelessly in love with a woman from another planet. 'Nuff said! A renowned member of the prestigious GRM (Groupe De Recherches Musicales, the French equivalent of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop) and frequent collaborator of Pierre Schaeffer, Iannis Xenakis, and Pierre Henry, among others, Bernard Parmegiani does what he does best with these two rare soundtracks: create moods with electroacoustic experimentation, elevating the weird and hypnotic with soundscapes from other dimensions, and cementing his status as a true innovator.

Unreleased baroque jazz horror score to controversial lesbian sex cult witchcraft exploitation drama from 1973, composed by Ted Dicks, the man who wrote the Catweazle theme. Ted Dicks is not that well-known as a composer these days, but back in the mid-1960s he was composing library music as well as penning some of the greatest comedy songs of the era, including "Hole In The Ground" and "Right Said Fred". His work was performed by Kenneth Williams, Petula Clarke, Bernard Cribbins, Topol, and more. But until now, little has been known of his brief flirtation with film music. Virgin Witch was his first brush with film scoring -- one of only two score he wrote. The film was produced by legendary wrestling commentator Ken Walton (under his sexploitation pseudonym of Ralph Solomans), with the help of Hazel Adair, a woman famed for co-creating the long running UK TV soap Crossroads. Virgin Witch was a racey film, turned down at least once for certification by the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC), passed uncut with an X for release just in London, then cut and passed for general release shortly afterwards. The score itself is a unique and quite beautiful pop baroque work, utilizing the cimbalom, an instrument more than likely played here by Ipcress File (1965) musician John Leach. A very limited release of a most unique 1970s pop horror lesbian witch score. Full color, eye-catching sleeve with great sleeve notes.

LP version. 180 gram vinyl; Gatefold sleeve. Digitmovies present the complete edition of the original soundtrack for the Italian cult TV series Orzowei composed by the prolific brothers Guido and Maurizio De Angelis for the first time in full stereo. Based on the novel Orzowei written by Alberto Manzi and issued in 1955, the story was adapted into 13 episodes of an international TV hit series which was produced in 1976 by Italian and German companies. It was directed by the French filmmaker Yves Allégret and starred Peter Marshall as Isa Orzowei, the British star Stanley Baker, Doris Kunstmann, Vincenzo Crocitti, and Bonne Lubega. This TV program was broadcasted in Italy in early 1977 and presented again with version especially re-edited for cinema theaters called Orzowei - Il Figlio Della Savana ("Orzowei - Son of the Savannah"). Isa, a white child abandoned in the forest of South Africa, is found and raised like a son by an old great warrior and by an old woman, both of them belonging to the Swazi people, an ethnic grouping of the Bantu tribe. Only one single was issued: RCA BB 6054, a very big international record hit. Taken from the stereo master tapes which have been well preserved in the RCA archives. Concerning Orzowei besides the 45 rpm single versions "Orzowei" and "Le Notti Di Orzowei", there are also alternate takes of the famous theme song like a different mix, the instrumental version, an evocative version with an echoed solo flute, the very cool karaoke version, an alternate take of "Le Notti Di Orzowei" without flute (all the original material discovered on the master tapes). Digitmovies discovered on another master tape three extra alternate takes. An OST of the '70s Italian TV cult.

2012 release. Digitmovies, with collaboration of Gruppo Sugar, issues Ennio Morricone's complete original soundtrack, in mono, for the 1963 western movie Duello Nel Texas ("Gunfight At The Red Sands"). Directed in 1963 by Ricardo Blasco and starring Richard Harrison, Giacomo Rossi Stuart, and Mikaela. The village of Carteville on the border to Mexico is in danger from a mysterious and dangerous gang of thugs. One night the band assaults the house of a Mexican family, including an orphan of American nationality adopted by Don Diego and known by all as "El Gringo". The gang kills the householder and steals the gold the family has at home. The man eventually discovers the true identity of the criminals. One against all, "El Gringo" succeeds with cunning and courage in liberating the town from the presence of evildoers forever. For this film Ennio Morricone has signed his first western score ever, just one year before the global success of Per Un Pugno Di Dollari (aka "A Fistful of Dollars") by Sergio Leone. Although still far from his musical style which is internationally known for this kind of genre, the then 35 years old Ennio Morricone composed a strong symphonic score featuring the main theme song "A Gringo Like Me" (both the performance of Peter Tevis and the alternate one of Dicky Jones appear here) which gets reprised with exciting instrumental versions, alternated with saloon music, highly dramatic orchestral passages full of tension, music for wild rides, romantic, and epic sequences. Previously only the song performed by the voice of Peter Tevis and a suite of just under five minutes were issued on a C.A.M. compilation. This project has been fully approved by Morricone who with his great friendship helped in the making of a release which is much awaited from all his fans around the world. 180 gram vinyl.

Digitmovies present the Guido and Maurizio De Angelis's original motion picture soundtrack for the movie La Tigre È Ancora Viva: Sandokan Alla Riscossa! ("The Tiger Is Still Alive: Sandokan To The Rescue"). At the time of release, a 45rpm single was issued (RCA BB 6135) featuring two tracks, for this LP Digitmovies have used the stereo master tapes found in the RCA vaults. After a slow and solemn strings introduction of the "Sandokan Theme", the new main theme is presented, for big orchestra and of epic flavor, called "Ritorno A Mompracem". This theme is reprised with several variations: with mandola and strings, slow and mystic, with flute, mandola, and bells, and in vocal version. The score is also enriched with very rhythmic action music, and of ethnic flavor. The Sandokan theme is reprised with an atonal way with reverberated harps. Although a digital restoration occurred some audio anomalies (pre-existing on the original sources) remain. Mompracem villagers are scared and left hungry by the ferocious Sultan Abdullah, a sovereign cowardly and cruel, serving the British. Jamilah, a young woman, returns to Mompracem to call the old "tigers" to battle, but is hunted by the sultan's guards and is about to be killed, but she was saved by the Greek adventurer Teotokris. The latter decides to help her, making a long journey to India in search of Sandokan, taking shelter there to convince him to resume his fight against the British.

Digitmovies present the first issue of Stelvio Cipriani's complete by original soundtrack for the 1977 film Poliziotto Sprint ("Convoy Busters"). Originally, C.A.M. had released a single with two tracks, "Speed Machine" and "Crazy Town". But thanks to the stereo master tapes from the recording session, Digitmovies had the opportunity to assemble a release with the entire fabulous original soundtrack. Stelvio Cipriani managed to describe the character of Agent Palma perfectly through music. Palma is a true "stuntman" in his fight against crime and Cipriani composed a cheerful score which also gives a sense of urban reality with its tangled jungle full of dangers. The rhythms and the typical sound of the Moog synthesizer of the late seventies create the right atmosphere, which is a pleasure for the listener who dives back in time and can imagine the daring exploits of the protagonist. Cipriani also manages to lighten up the serious battle between the good cop and the criminal with a sweet love theme introduced and then developed throughout the film. The city life with its chaotic traffic and hectic pace are emphasized by a long piece of large wind orchestra jazz and blues called "Crazy Town" (which was on the B side of the single) and is also found in its short version. This original soundtrack is a great addition to the archive devoted to the film music by legendary Stelvio Cipriani.

Digitmovies present the original motion picture soundtrack by Maurizio Abeni for the movie, directed by Sergio Stivaletti, Rabbia Furiosa, on CD. Fabio has just served eight months in prison for a crime he did not commit, in place of Claudio, a friend of his; former boxer, a delinquent of small caliber that aspires to become the boss of the Mandrione (peripheral roman district).

Whenever his dogs are injured, he turns to his friend Fabio who, clandestinely in the back room of his dog wash, takes care of small surgical procedures and medications. The friendship between Fabio and Claudio is very ambiguous, almost sick. Claudio has a bipolar personality that sometimes leads him to act with extreme malice in comparison to Fabio that seems to suffer without reacting. All of this lasts a long time, until one day that Fabio, unable to bear it anymore, will decide to carry out his terrible revenge...

Digitmovies present a reissue of Romolo Grano's original soundtrack for Ho Incontrato Un'ombra, originally released in 1974. A rare LP from the world of 1970s Italian cult TV. Ho Incontrato Un'ombra ("I Have Met a Shadow) was broadcast by RAI Television in Italy in 1974. The success of this screenplay was also due to the soundtrack written by Romolo Grano. The main theme "A Blue Shadow" became a record and radio hit thanks to composer Berto Pisano's evocative orchestral arrangement which was released on the EP single (along with "Tema di Silvia") (1974). The leitmotif was also included on an LP under the same label (also containing other songs not related to the background music of this TV series). The true original soundtrack of Ho Incontrato Un'ombra only came out on a promotional album under RCA's label Pegaso, with Grano's music beautifully arranged and conducted by Berto Pisano. Fortunately, Digitmovies managed to recover the stereo master in excellent condition which had been assembled in the '70s for the limited-edition audio vinyl. It's one of the rarest recordings on the collector's market. The master tape includes virtually everything that had been recorded for the TV series and which was re-edited in different scenes. The sad and romantic main theme with a hint of mystery is introduced and is reprised in a nostalgic guitar piece and again with electronic harpsichord. This beautiful main theme is alternated with danceable lounge music and suspense, as well as with the sad and sensual "Tema Di Silvia" for sax and orchestra. The recording session featured two extraordinarily gifted soloists: Oscar Valdambrini on trumpet and Edda Dell'Orso with her incredibly beautiful voice, an orchestral instrument in all respects. 180 gram vinyl; Edition of 250.

Digitmovies release for the first time a double-CD with Piero Piccioni's original soundtrack for the 1985 comedy film Sono Un Fenomeno Paranormale ("Babasciò", or "I'm an ESP"). Piero Piccioni composed one of his most brilliant soundtracks for this film. He uses sentimental and elegant themes to accompany the protagonist on his journey from Italy to India, including numerous pieces using sitar and tablas. On this soundtrack, Edda Dell'Orso with her crystal voice is the exceptional guest star we can hear on numerous tracks. Originally, General Music had released an LP containing sixteen tracks in stereo. For this double album (totaling over two hours) Digitmovies have included over an hour and a half of new material with film versions and alternate takes which we discovered in addition to the original master which had been assembled for the album. This album proves the artistic greatness of Piero Piccioni once again, not only for the huge amount of material recorded (most of which was not used in the film), but also the high quality of the scores, which are reprised in different versions and with different instruments. Edition of 300.

Digitmovies present the first CD issue of Stelvio Cipriani's complete original soundtrack for the 1984 film Rage Fuoco Incrociato ("A Man Called Rage"), aka Fuego Cruzado. In 1984 Cinevox Records released this orchestral/electronic score on LP with only twelve tracks. In addition to the stereo master tape assembled for the original album, Digitmovies discovered almost 13 minutes of previously unreleased material in mono that bringing the CD's total time over 45 minutes. For the composer, this soundtrack marks a very important moment in the lives of cinema and soundtracks fans: an unforgettable first encounter with maestro Cipriani which took place in the summer of 1984 (thanks to composer and friend Marco Werba) just as he was recording and mixing music for this film. Stelvio Cipriani composed a score where the orchestra performs an epic main theme with a holy atmosphere and frequent pop rhythms which accompany Rage's heroic endeavors through a place where fiendish traps and deadly dangers are always lurking. The author alternates solemn pieces with suspenseful pieces, and pieces of pure action typical of the '80s. One remarkable finding was the long version of "Esplorazione Della Base" ("Exploration Of The Base") with well over seven-and-a-half minutes two-and-a-half minutes on the LP take. This CD will be added to the discography of the legendary Stelvio Cipriani (which has expanded in recent years thanks to fantastic discoveries and rediscoveries in various archives), one of the most prolific composers of film music from the '60s to today.

LP version. Wewantsounds present a reissue of Serge Gainsbourg's cult score for the 1968 French film Le Pacha. These tracks were composed by Serge Gainsbourg at the height of his '60s cool when he was briefly going out with Brigitte Bardot and the couple was on the verge of recording the infamous first version of "Je T'aime... Moi Non Plus" (1969). All the tracks here are arranged by famed arranger Michel Colombier, who had been responsible for some of Gainsbourg's best songs ("Bonnie & Clyde" and "Harley Davidson") and had also arranged Pierre Henry's classic Psyche-Rock around the same time -- note the similarity between Psyche-Rock and "Un Noel 67" from this set. Many of these nuggets blend '60s pop and psychedelia -- pure undiluted Gainsbourg with his classic psyche-pop sound of the late '60s. The original soundtrack features his classic "Requiem Pour Un Con" together with a previously unreleased instrumental mix, along with two bonus tracks from William Klein's 1968 film Mister Freedom. Digitally remastered from the original tapes, this is the first time the full soundtrack is released on vinyl in its entirety. Includes two bonus tracks. Includes liner notes featuring interview by cult French bass player Francis Darizcuren. Artwork by famed poster designer Maxime Pecourt.

New 2018 edition. 2018 marks ten years since Finders Keepers Records first liberated Lubos Fiser's immaculate soundtrack music for Valerie And Her Week Of Wonders ("Valerie A Týden Divu") from the vaults of the Barrandov Studio in Prague. As the inaugural release of an ongoing discography of previously unreleased scores from the hugely creative "Film Miracle" that occurred during and after the Czech New Wave (CNW), this score will always retain a special place in the heart of the label. Having grown in status from an obscure and misunderstood socialist-era art house oddity, via the hands of risqué foreign fluff merchants, to finally find its rightful audience as a bona fide surrealist cinematic masterpiece of world class standards, this 1970 film adaptation of Vítezslav Nezval's 1935 avant-garde novella -- a film that literally cross-pollinated Max Ernst's A Week Of Kindness (1934) and Lewis Carol's Alice In Wonderland (1865) -- has garnered widespread critical acclaim. Inspiring ongoing generations of visual artists, musicians, writers, and filmmakers, Valerie continues to impregnate their daily artistic referential fabric. Commonly considered to be the swansong of the CNW, following a huge paranoia-fueled government film cull in 1969, owing to the fact it is last government approved feature film of the post-Prague Spring era to combine the efforts of controversial filmmakers from the FAMU (Filmová A Televizní Fakulta Akademie Múzických Umení) film school, Valerie would also be the first of an exciting and essential new fertile strain of Czech made cinema fantastic. Successfully condensing the final drops of CNW lifeblood through a series of presumed apolitical scary/fairy tales, directors like Jaromil Jires and Juraj Herz used surrealism, traditionalism, and fantasy to rejuvenate the creative energy of apathetic filmmakers evading government scrutiny via creatively coded artistic allegories. By strategically choosing to adapt a pre-war surrealist melodrama written by a communist convert author called Vítezslav Nezval and based in a non-specific traditional era, the previously censored filmmaker Jaromil Jires was able to craft what many consider his finest filmic hour and what would later become his most universally received achievement. Jires managed to unintentionally establish a new genre format that was both stylistically and sonically tuned to the trends of the impending decade. Remastered from the original studio tapes with updated liner notes. This new edition is available in two sleeve designs, both based on the original theatrical posters.
