Some of the rarest material ever recorded from this legendary Italian maestro – and some of the funkiest too – tracks that all originally appeared in erotic films of the late 70s, and which definitely represent a more secret side of his career! You might know Alessandroni for his key ... (Funky 45's) read more7-inch, Vinyl record

Chiare ... LP Four Flies (Italy), 2024. New Copy ...
$28.9933.99
Beautiful work from a really lovely Italian singer – a vocalist whose language you might not know, but who brings you in right away with an instantly seductive sound! Part of that sound comes from great use of keyboards – warming things up in all these great soulful styles, so that the ... (New Grooves) read moreLP, Vinyl record album

Squadra Antifurto ... LP Four Flies (Italy), 1976. New Copy ...
$32.9936.99
That's the great Tomas Milian on the cover – looking like a slightly comedic undercover cop – which is a good way to highlight the music on this soundtrack! The work is definitely in the cop/crime territory of the Gudio and Maurizio DeAngelis team, but there's also a lighter feel to ... (Soundtracks) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Dressel Amorosi —
Spectrum ... LP Four Flies (Italy), 2023. New Copy ...
Out Of Stock
A set that pays tribute to the glory days of European sound library music, and which is particularly heavy on modes from the early 80s – that point when library funk was stripped down a lot more from the fuller bands of the previous decade, and relied heavily on beats and keyboards! There's ... (New Grooves) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Koralle with Illa J/Modern Sound Quartet —
New Levels/Chartreuse ... 7-inch Four Flies (Italy), 2024. New Copy ...
Temporarily Out Of Stock
A cool cut with many different levels – or maybe "new levels" – a track that's based around a 70s sound library tune by the Modern Sound Quartet, reworked by Koralle, then given a hip hop spin by Illa J! The original version of "Chartreuse" is fantastic – a ... (Funky 45's) read more7-inch, Vinyl record

Larry Manteca's the name of the group, not a single guy – and over the course of the past decade, they created all the wonderfully groovy instrumentals on this set – new recordings, but handled with a style that really goes back to Italian soundtrack and sound library gems from the past! ...

Matalo ... LP Beat/Four Flies (Italy), 1970. New Copy 2LP Gatefold ...
$35.9945.99
Really great music for one of the trippiest westerns ever recorded during the spaghetti generation – served up here with instrumentation that often has a lot more psychedelic touches than other western scores of the time! Mario Migliardi didn't do that much soundtrack work in the period, but ... (Soundtracks) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Nora Orlandi —
A Doppia Faccia ... LP Four Flies (Italy), 1969. New Copy ...
Out Of Stock
Mindblowing work from Nora Orlandi – one of the few major female film composers on the Italian scene, and a talent that we always rank right up there with the male greats of the golden days! This set has a real Morricone-like balance of darkness and light – although the style is ... (Soundtracks) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Three funky takes on the theme from this cool Italian film of the 70s! The "Poliziesco" mix is strong and upbeat, like some great crime/cop cut from the time – while the "Indagine" mix is still funky, but slows things down and adds in some very nice wah wah guitar! And ... (Funky 45's) read more7-inch, Vinyl record
Two great tracks from this excellent Italian soundtrack – both of which might be among some of the funkiest work ever from maestro Riz Ortolani! "Serena E Lomunno" has a skittish snare, bubbling bassline, and a very cool mix of piano and organ keyboard work – echoing out in a ... (Funky 45's) read more7-inch, Vinyl record
Two great tracks from Carlo Pes – who you might know from his work in the group I Marc 4, and who really makes things great here through a range of cool, jazzy instrumentation! "The Riff" is way more than you'd guess from the title – as it begins with this fast and echoey ... (Funky 45's) read more7-inch, Vinyl record

A wonderfully warm and slinky soundtrack from 70s Italian maestro Berto Pisano – a set with music that's even better than you might guess from the cover – and a really well put-together vibe that gives the whole record a very unified sound!

A set that's not nearly as electronic as you might expect – at least not in any sort of cold, computer-styled way – as the record is full of plenty of great analog touches on keyboards, basslines, and other bits – all of which really give the whole thing a very warm glow overall! ...

A cool tropical groover from the Italian sound library scene of the 70s – given a sweet remix here too! "Oasi Nella Giungla" is from the Africa Oscura project by Giulani Sorgini – nicely percolating percussion, topped with a bit of birdcalls and other jungley elements – ...

A sweet little funky 45 – one that features two of the best tracks from the Zoo Folle soundtrack! "Mad Town" is definitely that – a small cluster of funky drums, fast-riffing flute, and this keyboard line that has some fuzzy production along the edges that really make the ...

An incredible lost jazz funk soundtrack by Guiliano Sorgini – one of the best we've been lucky enough to discover in ages – all the more fascinating given the film it was made for! The soundtrack is a wild one for the most part, with a few more elegiac sounding numbers – but ... (Soundtracks) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Two killer cuts from this rare 70s Italian soundtrack – both of them great! "Chaser" has this way of glowing while grooving – keyboards soaring out over drums, then spacing out a bit, then coming back warm with the groove, which also includes some percussion! "Hard ...
