Quando Gli Uomini Armarono La Clava E... Con Le Donne Fecero Din-Don (aka "When Women Played Ding-Dong") is a 1971 movie, directed by Bruno Corbucci. In prehistoric times, two tribes -- the Cavemen, who live on the mainland, and the Aquamanni, who live on stilts -- are almost always fighting with each other. During a period of peace, the young Ari, head of the Cavemen, wins, in battle with the Acquamanni, one of their virgins, Listra, with whom, however, he barely has time to entertain himself since immediately a new one contention breaks out between the two tribes. Although the fake-prehistoric setting and the title that refers to the two Pasquale Festa Campanile films set to music by Ennio Morricone and Bruno Nicolai, this Corbucci film has nothing to do with those productions. Giancarlo Chiaramello, author of several scores for cinema and television has composed a pleasant score based on the recurring main theme "Troglomen" performed in the main titles by the Turin-based progressive rock band Gli Aluminogeni which derives from the surname of the leader and singer, Patrizio Alluminio. This song was printed in stereo on the A side of the single. For the first time ever, Beat Records release all the background music score taken from the master in mono of the original session kept in the Beat Record archives and the song of the single in stereo with a total duration of almost 76 minutes (including takes not used in the film). Funny themes alternate with other rhythmic ones with distorted electric guitars with a rock -- beat flavor for battle scenes, with a recurring love theme with a lounge flavor, with ethnic atmospheres. The chorus of Nora Orlandi performs in numerous tracks of this fun soundtrack that CFS and BEAT have absolutely wanted to restore and preserve on CD. Co-produced by Claudio Fuiano and Daniele De Gemini for CFSoundtracks and Beat Records editing/mastering by Enrico De Gemini and Claudio Fuiano. Graphic design by Claudio Fuiano and Daniele De Gemini. 12-page booklet.

(Holocaust 2000) is a 1977 horror film directed by Alberto De Martino featuring a stellar cast that saw Kirk Douglas in the role of Robert Caine, a wealthy industrialist faced with the danger of a nuclear disaster planned by none other than the antichrist himself. Engaged in the design of a nuclear power plant in the Third World, Caine's opponents begin to disappear one by one, but soon the plot will take an unexpected turn. Ennio Morricone, two-time Oscar winner (first for his career and then for the soundtrack of Quentin Tarantino's The Hateful Eight), composed a score dominated by poignant themes and orchestrations devoid of cloying sentimentality that emerge in the opening credits amidst expansive collisions of sound that characterize the composer's experimental genius with a mellifluous flute and a female choir producing a dramatic and dazzling tension, giving further proof of the talent of this extraordinary musician in understanding cinematic signals and translating them into musical tapestries. The Chosen (Holocaust 2000) is now available in this ultimate edition, complete with unreleased material, and to distinguish it from prior releases that are now out of print, the CD is in the historic CDCR series (Compact Disc Collector Release) with original artwork by Alessio Iannuzzi, mastering by Enrico De Gemini, and liner notes by Fabio Babini. 12-page booklet.

Il Fischio Al Naso (aka "The Seventh Floor") is a dramatic movie directed in 1967 by Ugo Tognazzi. Industrialist Giuseppe Inzerna, afflicted by an annoying hissing sound in his nasal passageway, is employed at the very modern Salus Bank and subjected to endless examinations, analyzations and treatments. The whistle in his nose eventually goes away, but other symptoms appear in its place. Inzerna refuses to consider himself sick, yet is afraid to go home, despite the advice of the doctors who employ various excuses to place him on higher floors as his illnesses multiply, each floor representing the next stage of the developing malady. Inzerna becomes increasingly alone and defenseless against his family, who plot and scheme behind his back until the tragic ending. Teo Usuelli (1920-2009) was a prolific composer of about forty soundtracks between 1950 and 1976 as well as important songs in the late '50s including "Meravigliose labbra," performed in 1959 by Johnny Dorelli. He was also an important researcher in the field of medieval and Renaissance music (transcribing popular and choral songs in a modern key) and teacher of composition at the Conservatories of Bologna, L'Aquila and Trento. In 1959, he met director Marco Ferreri, with whom he made an important artistic partnership by composing the music for famous films such as L'ape regina, La donna scimmia, Marcia nuziale, and Dillinger è morto. Here Beat Records present, for the first time on CD, Usuelli's soundtrack for Il Fischio Al Naso, assembled using the mono master tapes of the recording session, archived at Universal Music Publishing Ricordi. At the time, the Italian RCA released only a single (PM 3401) containing "La Conta", with lyrics by Tognazzi himself, performed by the beat band Le Pecore Nere, which can be heard in the opening credits and is reprised for the finale. The author reprises the main theme with fabulous baroque performances for orchestra, sometimes adding beat rhythms with electric guitars and a version with polyphonic choir alternated with lounge music. Usuelli composed a poignant requiem for the love scenes between the protagonist Giuseppe and his lover Giovanna which the composer also arranges in a waltz version with a beat flavor for the party scene organized by the patients of the clinic. Editing/mastering and liner notes by Claudio Fuiano. Graphic design by Daniele De Gemini. Includes 12-page booklet.

Cabum and Beat Records present, almost forty years after the theatrical release of the film, the wonderful score by Guido & Maurizio De Angelis for the post-apocalyptic movie 2019 Dopo La Caduta Di New York, directed in 1983 by Sergio Martino and starring Michael Sopkiw, George Eastman, Anna Kanakis, and Valentine Monnier. In a post-apocalyptic future, there are two enemy factions -- the Euraks and the Federation -- fighting for dominance, and a solitary warrior is sent by the Federation to New York to retrieve the last fertile woman on Earth. Still enjoying an immense fan base, 2019 Dopo La Caduta Di New York is considered one of the best movies of its genre, which was very popular in the '80s and most certainly influenced by some of the cult-classic American movies that were so prolific at the time. The score by the De Angelis bros. was one of the most sought-after by their fans and film music lovers and represents, like Alien 2 Sulla Terra (DDJ 052CD/DDJ 005DLX-LP/DDJ 005DLXLTDLP). Cabum and Beat Records, thanks to the discovery of the original recording sessions in the archive of the brothers' label, are finally able to offer the complete score on CD. The cover features the original poster artwork painted by Renato Casaro, with mastering by Enrico De Gemini, graphic layout and 12-page booklet designed by Daniele De Gemini and liner notes by Manuel Cavenaghi (edited in English by Josh Mitchell). CD version includes 12-page booklet; edition of 500.

Thanks to the partnership between Roman labels and distributors Cometa Edizioni Musicali, Beat Records, and Four Flies Records, one of the most iconic and essential works by Piero Umiliani has finally emerged from the archives: La Schiava Io Ce L'Ho e Tu No. The movie was directed by Giorgio Capitani starring Lando Buzzanca and Chaterine Spaak, its soundtrack recorded at Ortophonic Studios in Rome in September of 1973. Widely regarded as one of the most sought-after productions by the famous Italian composer, the original LP is now considered a holy grail among the most serious record collectors worldwide. Perhaps the main reason for this is the magnificent quality of the compositions and arrangements, written by the maestro himself, who reaches one of his compositional peaks with this score. His music is the quintessential Italian sound for '70s sophisticated comedy, its unmistakable flavor now carved into our collective imagination, blending samba-bossa rhythms, funk guitars, dynamic and airy strings, and most of all, those brilliant choirs, always functional in relation to the movie's mood (performed here by the omnipresent Cantori Moderni di Alessandroni in a leading role). Together with the sensual vocalisms of Edda Dell'Orso, they truly represent the identity of an entire genre. The release of this CD not only brings to light one of the freshest and most topical soundtracks of Piero Umiliani's career, but the original master tapes feature the complete soundtrack sessions stored in the Cometa archives. That's why we are able to present here, in addition to the LP's original track listing, 23 tracks never before released in any format, revealing Umiliani's compositional eclecticism and his ability to transition effortlessly from jazz to funk, easy listening to symphony. Personal memories by Umiliani's daughters enrich this edition through their contributions to the liner notes, offering a familiar and intimate perspective about the composer's private life. 12-page booklet; edition of 500.

L'agnese Va A Morire is one of the most successful collaborations between director Giuliano Montaldo and composer Ennio Morricone. The composer, avails himself of exceptional soloists such as De Gemini on harmonica, Carnini on organ, Valdambrini on flugelhorn, Enrico Pierannunzi on piano, and the dramatic vocals of Clara Murtas to create the appropriate atmosphere to describe life turned upside-down by Nazism during WWII, during the eight months preceding the liberation of Italy from German occupiers. Morricone alternates sacral moments with dissonance to describe this dark period of Italian history. Beat Records used a first-generation stereo master prepared in 1977 for a 33rpm that was never released, now fully restored for an exceptional listening experience. The CD is released in the classic CDCR series with mastering by Daniel Winkler and Claudio Fuiano. Liner notes by Patrick Bouster. Graphic design by Daniele De Gemini, featuring the original poster art by Renato Casaro on the cover. Jewel case; 12-page booklet.

Directed by Sergio Garrone, Django Il Bastardo (1969) is considered by critics to be one of his best films. Here is one of the most iconic Spaghetti Western characters, Django, in one of his final movies, this time played by Anthony Steffen. It's not the first time Vasco Vassil Kojucharov (a maestro very dear to the Beat Records publishing group) scored this character. Thanks to the Nomus association, archivist of the Kojucharov fund, the label retrieved four master tapes and many documents from the recording session for this soundtrack, which -- coming as no surprise, being a representative example of its genre -- reveals all of the musical skills of the maestro. His immensely creative vein is evident from the main titles, which -- performed with typical instrumentation for Italian Western movies -- winks an eye to the spy genre. A wonderful unreleased score, finally available for your listening pleasure. Mastering by Enrico De Gemini. Graphic design by Daniele De Gemini. Liner notes by Alessandro Bratus (English-language translation edited by Josh Mitchell). Jewel case; 12-pages booklet.

Beat Records kick off 2020 with the fifth release in the L'uomo dell'armonica series, dedicated to the historical leader and founder of Beat Records Company Publishing Group, harmonica player Franco De Gemini. Franco passed away in July 2013, leaving an enormous void, but he keeps on living through immortal musical performances that connoted his long career. This time Beat Records selected his collaborations with maestro Ennio Morricone, with whom he'd worked many times as soloist, but most notably Once Upon A Time In The West (Sergio Leone, 1968). A cool selection for highlighting the stylistic measure of the evolution both for the composer and the performer, passing through film music milestones, some of which have long since gone missing from the market. Including Per Per Un Pugno Di Dollari (A Fistful of Dollars, 1967), Il Buono, Il Brutto, Il Cattivo (The Goods, the Bad and the Ugly, 1967), C'Era Una Volta Il West (Once Upon A Time In The West, 1968), Faccia A Faccia (Face to Face, 1967), Sette Donne Per I MacGregor (1968), L'alibi (1969), and many more, the scores in which the contribution of the harmonica player to the wonderful Maestro's music was iconic. By the end of the track list, Beat Records offer again the ghost track released through our 50th year Once Upon A Time In The West edition featuring the studio sound tests by Franco De Gemini during the recording session of that soundtrack. Franco De Gemini plays Ennio Morricone, original recordings from the motion picture soundtracks. Graphic layout and liner notes by Daniele De Gemini. Mastering by Claudio Fuiano and Daniel Winkler. Slim jewel case with an external obi.

Beat Records releases a tribute to the cinema of Lucio Fulci and Ruggero Deodato with this deluxe edition of the scores for I Guerrieri Dell'anno 2072 (Lucio Fulci, 1984) and La Casa Sperduta Nel Parco (Ruggero Deodato, 1980) by the immortal maestro of Italian and international film music, Riz Ortolani. These scores represent the two sides of the authorial coin of the composer, who provided the thriller starring David Hess with an extremely melodic soundtrack that highlights the ferocity of the scenes at a counterpoint level, similar to the style he used for Cannibal Holocaust (1980). Preceding his collaboration with Deodato, Ortolani scored the Fulci film with rock vibes and a strong backdrop of electronics. These two wonderful soundtracks finally available on CD in this deluxe edition that highlights the two musical styles across two discs, unrelated in genre but composed by the same classy author. Edition of 500, mastered by Claudio Fuiano, with dual cover art by Daniele De Gemini and liner notes by Marco Ferretti.

Beat Records present the soundtrack for La Chiave, a film by Tinto Brass, presented for the first time on CD from first-generation stereo album master tapes vaulted in Cabum archives in pristine conditions. Music composed, orchestrated, and conducted by Ennio Morricone. La Chiave (aka The Key, La clè, Der Schlüssel) is an erotic movie directed by Tinto Brass in 1983. The story of the film takes place in Venice during the fascist era on the eve of the declaration of the Second World War. It is the story of an elderly English professor, director of the Art Biennale, and his young wife Teresa. In 1983, the Triple Time Music label issued a 33rpm album with ten selections assembled by the composer himself. The same material was reissued on a French 33rpm album and on a German 33rpm album. For this world premiere CD reissue, Beat Records have remastered the first-generation stereo master tapes vaulted in Cabum archives and used for the 1983 Italian vinyl. For Ennio Morricone fans around the world, it'll surely be a welcome addition, especially considering that La Chiave is one of the very few scores by Ennio Morricone that was not yet available in CD format. The album opens with a grotesque slow waltz reprising Strauss's "The Blue Danube Waltz", given a very personal arrangement in "Da Vienna A Vienna (1a versione)" and reprised in "Da Vienna A Vienna (2a versione)", and "Quattro Frammenti Per Orchestra Da Camera". For "Funebre E Pomposo",' the composer has written a very dramatic orchestral piece for a funeral. The classic side of Ennio Morricone is present in "Due Variazioni Da Un Tema Sereno", where the Baroque approach represents Venice. A happy theme with a prominent flute and waltz tempo describes the quieter moments of the plot in "Citazione Da Un Vecchio Valzer", and there's a can-can with funny tonalities typical of the Petri and Tornatore movies in "Mini Can Can Grottesco". A string quartet slowly describes the sensuality of the protagonist in "Tre Frammenti Per Quattro D'archi", and a psychological feeling of sadness and anxiety is evoked by the seemingly quiet piece "Malessere". The piece "Lei Pensata Da Lui", with a Baroque flavor alternating between folk and pop, cheerfully closes the disc. La Chiave is the second release in a series aiming to reevaluate the classic Cabum OST catalog. Graphic design by Claudio Fuiano and Daniele De Gemini. Remastering by Claudio Fuiano.

I Ladri Della Notte (aka "Les voleurs de la nuit" -- "Thieves After Dark") is a 1984 drama directed by Samuel Fuller and starring Véronique Jannot, Bobby Di Cicco, Victor Lanoux , Stéphane Audran, Camille de Casabianca, Micheline Presle, Claude Chabrol, Samuel Fuller, Samantha Fuller. Ennio Morricone wrote a perfect score to describe all the dramatic loneliness of the two protagonists linked not only by a feeling of love, but also by their criminal acts. Dark and mysterious atmospheres alternate with romantic passages for piano and orchestra, piano and flute with a classic flavor, oriental atmosphere and a dramatic theme with funky bass. Morricone wrote one of his most beautiful themes for this film, a poignant romance of ancient taste for the two lovers. At the time, General Music pressed a 33rpm which contained eleven selections. In 1997, the same material was reissued in Japan for the first time on CD by Soundtrack Listeners Communications Inc., and in Spain in 2002 by Saimel Bandas Sonoras featuring nine additional tracks approved by the composer, alternating with those of the 1984 album. Beat Records now re-release the same expanded material but including first the tracks in the 33rpm sequence followed by the bonus tracks from the stereo session, for a different listening experience. Available packaged in a jewel case with a 12-page booklet. Designed by Daniele De Gemini. Mastering and liner notes by Claudio Fuiano.

LP version. Almost 40 years after its theatrical debut, Cabum and Beat Records release for the first time ever the complete score for the movie Alien 2 Sulla Terra (1980, Ciro Ippolito), one of the most obscure films in the Italian horror/sci-fi realm, an apocryphal sequel to the iconic Alien by Ridley Scott (1979), released just a few months prior. One of the most sought-after soundtracks by Guido & Maurizio De Angelis fans, it is a prominent sample of the experimental style of the two composers that would feature prominently throughout the '80s. Their kaleidoscopic score begins with a country flavor and evolves with an astonishing electronic timber, sometimes morbid and obsessive. This release features nearly 80 minutes of music, complete with two cues from Uno Sceriffo Extraterrestre, Poco Extra Molto Terrestre (1979) that are used in the first part of the movie to build tension in a particular scene. This reissue was mastered by Enrico De Gemini thanks to the discovery of first-generation masters in Cabum's archives. Includes liner notes and graphic layout by Daniele De Gemini and English edit by Esteban Medaglia.

Beat Records presents for the first time on CD the complete edition of the soundtrack by Nino Oliviero and Bruno Nicolai from Il Pelo Nel Mondo (aka "Go, Go, Go World!"), a documentary directed in 1964 by Renato Marvi and Antonio Margheriti. A report on the most extreme customs in the most diverse corners of the world, the various episodes include -- in addition to some strip-teases -- visions of half-naked savages, documentation on the beheading of roosters, the slaughter of wild boars, the milking of Swiss cows, the sale of Chinese children in Hong Kong, prostitution and even some religious processions. This film is part of the famous trend of the "mondo movie". At the time, C.A.M. issued a 33rpm with 22 selections in mono; the same material was reissued in America by the Musicor Records label. For this release, Beat Records were able to use the master tapes of the mono recording session, which allowed us to discover 19 unreleased tracks. Throughout the 41 tracks, the listener will be immersed in fascinating sound dimensions that describe musically all the visual stimuli in the documentary.) This premiere "mondo" CD pays homage with great affection to the musical art of two titanic Italian musicians, the Maestros Nino Oliviero and Bruno Nicolai, and will certainly be welcome in every collection dedicated to high quality film music. This beautiful soundtrack will guide you around the world with almost seventy minutes of great, timeless music. Available packaged in a jewel case with a 12-page booklet designed by Daniele De Gemini with mastering and liner notes by Claudio Fuiano.

Gates of Hell Trilogy is Beat Records' tribute to the popular apocryphal trilogy directed by horror cinema legend Lucio Fulci in the early '80s, three movies that marked the evolution of the director's style over just two years. Starting with Paura Nella Citta' Dei Morti Viventi (1980), going through E Tu Vivrai Nel Terrore... L'aldila'! (1981), and ending with Quella Villa Accanto Al Cimitero (1981), all three featured the beautiful and skilled Catriona MacColl -- British actress with delicate and expressive features -- and plots dominated by a diabolic exotericism that always closed its infernal stories with all but cathartic epilogues. The scores by Fabio Frizzi (for the first two movies) and Walter Rizzati (for the last one) became part of the cinematic memory of these movies, with timeless sonorities much loved by fans of the films. At the dawn of the 40th anniversary of the first movie of the trilogy, Beat Records makes an iconic homage to these scores by releasing them for the first time together, officially validating the link between these films. The dedication, which we imagine would be appreciated by great Lucio, is in the cover art featuring the films' three evil protagonists, Father William Thomas (Paura Nella Citta' Dei Morti Viventi), Schweick (E Tu Vivrai Nel Terrore... L'aldila'!), and Dr. Freudstein (Quella Villa Accanto Al Cimitero), magisterially painted by English artist Graham Humphreys. The 40-page booklet -- richly illustrated and featuring liner notes by Antonella Fulci, the director's daughter -- is the Eibon sigil on this luxurious edition, a must-have for all lovers of good film music. Hard paper box; 40-page booklet.

Almost 40 years after its theatrical debut, Cabum and Beat Records release for the first time ever the complete score for the movie Alien 2 Sulla Terra (1980, Ciro Ippolito), one of the most obscure films in the Italian horror/sci-fi realm, an apocryphal sequel to the iconic Alien by Ridley Scott (1979), released just a few months prior. One of the most sought-after soundtracks by Guido & Maurizio De Angelis fans, it is a prominent sample of the experimental style of the two composers that would feature prominently throughout the '80s. Their kaleidoscopic score begins with a country flavor and evolves with an astonishing electronic timber, sometimes morbid and obsessive. This release features nearly 80 minutes of music, complete with two cues from Uno Sceriffo Extraterrestre, Poco Extra Molto Terrestre (1979) that are used in the first part of the movie to build tension in a particular scene. This reissue was mastered by Enrico De Gemini thanks to the discovery of first-generation masters in Cabum's archives. Includes liner notes and graphic layout by Daniele De Gemini and English edit by Esteban Medaglia. CD version includes 12-page booklet.

Tutti Possono Arricchire Tranne I Poveri is a 1976 film directed by Mauro Severino, starring Enrico Montesano, Barbara Bouchet, and Anna Mazzamauro. It tells the story of a couple who comes into sudden wealth thanks to a football lottery and of their vicissitudes in blowing the newfound fortune. The music for this funny and oblique comedy was composed by a trio of musicians very much industrious throughout the 1970s: Franco Bixio, Fabio Frizzi, and Vince Tempera. These three musicians had developed a defined triangular identity, composing wonderful scores such as 7 note in nero, Sella D'Argento, Godzilla il re dei Mostri, Il secondo tragico Fantozzi, Febbre da Cavallo, Roma l'altra faccia della violenza, I quattro dell'Apocalisse, and many more. It was an incredible and prolific collaboration that gifted Italian cinema with iconic scores, celebrated here once again with this unreleased score that doesn't delude expectations, released as part of the DDJ series and presented in a transparent jewel case. Includes 12-page booklet designed by Daniele De Gemini with liner notes by Marco Ferretti. Mastering by Claudio Fuiano.
