RIT/Outernational (UK), 1977. New Copy (reissue)... $20.99
A totally wonderful little record, and one with a very unlikely origin story too – given that the music was originally composed to highlight the different creative departments at the Rochester Institute Of Technology in the late 70s! The music is all jazz on side one – done in this ... (Jazz, Soundtracks) read more LP, Vinyl record album
20th Century/Universal, 1966. New Copy (reissue)... $22.99 24.98

Quartet (Spain), 1976. New Copy ... $34.99
Music has always played a great part in the films of Roman Polanski – and that's definitely the case in The Tenant, a film that's got a score that's subtle, but which really fits the spooky mood of the story!

(Limited edition of 500!)
Digitmovies (Italy), 1966. New Copy Gatefold ... $26.99
That's Goldsnake, not Goldfinger – but the soundtrack here from Carlo Savina is very much inspired by the James Bond music of the 60s – and served up in a great range of spy, mod, and crime jazz styles! The main theme gets a vocal reading at the start, but is transformed into other ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Metronome/Wah Wah (Spain), 1971. New Copy (reissue)... $32.99

Finders Keepers (UK), 1979. New Copy ... $16.99
Really beautiful electronics from the enigmatic Guy Skornik – an artist that we mostly know for his quirky concept record Pour Pauwels, but who sounds here like some of the best electronicians of the German scene of the 70s!

Digitmovies/Sonor (Italy), 1975. New Copy (reissue)... $29.99
Very cool sounds from this Richard Conte exorcist film from the mid 70s – a movie that was also known as Naked Exorcism in some corners of the world – and which gets a soundtrack that's every bit as creepy as its title!

(Limited to 300 copies.)
Motown, 1974. New Copy (reissue)... $9.99

Aris/Sonor (Italy), 1976. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)... $32.99
A pretty fantastic soundtrack to a movie that looks pretty darn spooky – not in the usual Italian horror way, but more in an earthy, ritualistic sort of mode! As part of that vibe, the music's got this great current of sex – some funky elements mixed with grittier sounds – often ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Includes bonus CD – which seems to have some bonus tracks too!)
Omega Productions (France), 1974. New Copy Gatefold ... $26.99
A sweet sexy score from the great Yan Tregger – who you'll also know for his disco and sound library material on the late 70s Italian scene!

RCA/Down At Dawn (Italy), 1959. New Copy (reissue)... $18.99

Psichedelica (with bonus CD) ... LP Omicron/Schema (Italy), 1971. New Copy (reissue)... $26.99
Not the sort of psychedelic music you'd expect from an American rock band of the late 60s – and instead, a stunning set of funky genius from Italian soundtrack maestro Piero Umiliani!

GDM/Dagored (Italy), 1967. New Copy (reissue)... Just Sold Out!
A groovy little soundtrack by the great Piero Umiliani!

A totally cool set from Piero Umiliani – an Italian composer who was so inventive, he had to create his own studio just to find a space to express all of his many ideas!

To-Day's Sound ... LP Schema (Italy), 1971. New Copy 2LP Gatefold (reissue)... $29.99
A gem of a record from the great Piero Umiliani – and maybe one of his funkiest, grooviest projects ever!

Roundtable (Australia), 1977. New Copy ... $29.99

RCA/Sonor (Italy), 1970. New Copy (reissue)... $29.99
A beautiful ocean-based soundtrack – the kind of really special music we'd put right up there with the best seafaring scores by Sven Libaek or Francois De Roubaix!
