SONOR 021EP

Sonor Music Editions announces the first reissue ever of a Giuliano Sorgini's library masterpiece, originally released on the elusive Goldfinger Italian library-only promo label. Immagini Sospese was originally released on the very rare Panorami album in 1980, and specifically composed for the soundtrack of an obscure Italian RAI TV documentary. Also known as "Dolce Casa", this track is known to be one of the best-ever Sorgini's bangers, with an incredible drums groove, lush melodies over a soft chord structure made of airy strings. The B-side includes a killer new track composed by producers Alex Goose and Matt Zara, deeply inspired by the "Immagini Sospese" tune. Edition of 500.

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.

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.
