Von Howlin' Wolf Records kommen zum Jahresende auch noch mal drei neue CDs: Richard Einhorns Score für den Horrorfilm Don't Go in the House (1979) sowie JeanMichelNoirs Good Tidings (2016) und Semih Tareens Holiday Hell (2019).
ZitatHowlin’ Wolf Records is proud to present Richard Einhorn's unnerving score for the 1979 shocker DON'T GO IN THE HOUSE.
The score for DON’T GO IN THE HOUSE is another innovative electronic composition from the classically trained composer Richard Einhorn. Einhorn used a sophisticated array of synthesizers from the era to create the foreboding atmosphere required for the horrors awaiting in the Kohler house. The story illustrates, with uncomfortably disturbing realism, the destructive and often terrifying consequences that manifest as a part of the cyclic natures of trauma and abuse.
DON'T GO IN THE HOUSE features the original archival recording, remastered by Ian Zapczynski from the original master tapes, including several bonus tracks from Richard Einhorn’s personal archives. With liner notes titled “Conversations with Richard Einhorn” by Album Producer Ian Zapczynski, the packaging is rich with a vibrant pallet of colors brought to life like a wildfire through original cover art by renowned artist Simon Sherry, all beautifully crafted with packaging designs and startling imagery by acclaimed Howlin’ Wolf Records Art Director Luis Miguel Rojas.
ZitatHowlin’ Wolf Records is excited to present JeanMichelNoir's wickedly delightful score GOOD TIDINGS - filled with mayhem and menacing holiday cheer. Evil Santas everywhere, beware, there is a new and more terrifying breed of unremorseful and sinister Santa à la the Christmas shocker GOOD TIDINGS! To up the ante, there is not one, but three, twisted masked killers to flee - a trinity of terror! The most malevolent Father Christmas of the troupe is none other than composer JeanMichelNoir, indulging one of his other creative passions as an actor, filmmaker, and storyteller. He discusses the intent to make a film that was "straight-up unapologetic horror" with a performance as the "scariest bad guy" possible. There is no spoiler in proclaiming, mission accomplished!
JeanMichelNoir, self-described as the "playful demon," is one of the creative entities who live within Liverpool artist, composer, musician, filmmaker, and actor Liam Ashcroft. Ashcroft is a prolific artist and creator who moves seamlessly between the inner creative forces that drive him. Be it JeanMichelNoir (the composer), Mugsmasher (the political activist), or Liam Ashcroft (the master for channeling all internal creative forces), the output is always an unbridled fury of fierce originality!
GOOD TIDINGS has the progressive operatic feel of Oldfield's "Tubular Bells," and JeanMichelNoir credits Goldsmith's "Ave Satani" as an influence, using his voice to chant woeful Latin-translated phrases to fashion a "scary carol." Whatever the influences, they are molded, twisted, and contorted into a form that is distinctively JeanMichelNoir.
GOOD TIDINGS features a 16-page booklet with liner notes by composer JeanMichelNoir and beautiful original cover art by Austin Hinderliter (Creepy Carves). The packaging is exquisitely designed by acclaimed Howlin' Wolf Records Art Director Luis Miguel Rojas weaving a tapestry of psycho-Santa promo shots from the film with vibrant imagery of the composer in a colorful giallo-infused style.
ZitatHowlin’ Wolf Records proudly presents HOLIDAY HELL, a beautifully crafted holiday anthology score by composer and filmmaker Semih Tareen. HOLIDAY HELL stars horror icon Jeffrey Combs, as the mysterious shop owner of the Nevertold Casket Co. - Antiques & Curiosities, in addition to veteran actor and brother to Bill Murray, Joel Murray, as a down on his luck Santa.
HOLIDAY HELL is a clever blend of anthology-storytelling and horror, with a touch of black comedy, co-written by Jeff Ferrell and Jeff Vigil - both directing anthology segments in association with a troupe of collaborating directors. A shop full of macabre novelties helps spin an elaborate web with each tale of terror introduced by Jeffrey Combs, the shop curator of oddities.
Semih Tareen is an accomplished, award-winning composer with more than 18 years of experience scoring symphonic and midi scores, who happens to have a fascinating side gig as a research scientist with a Ph.D. in Molecular and Cellular Biology - a true right brain/left brain wizard! He studied with two-time Emmy winning composer Hummie Man at the Pacific Northwest Film Scoring Program. The composer is also an accomplished filmmaker, having received acclaim for a short Bava-inspired giallo he made while attending the Seattle Film Institute, cleverly titled "Yellow." For HOLIDAY HELL, the composer had to craft a score to harmoniously connect each segment while honoring the unique musical narrative needed to accompany each twisted tale. Included as a bonus on the CD, to add a touch of spooky ambiance, is a suite of vintage carols used in the film.
HOLIDAY HELL features a 20-page booklet with liner notes by writer/director Jeff Ferrell and composer Semih Tareen along with beautiful original cover art by Chris Barnes (BRUTAL Posters). The packaging is magnificently stylized by longtime Howlin' Wolf Records Art Director Luis Miguel Rojas.

In der Tat verdient Universal wohl immer noch ein kleines Vermögen mit der Lizenzierung von Universal-Monsters-Artikeln, eigentlich schon bizarr, dass zumindest in den USA diese 60 - 100 Jahre alten Ungeheuer sich immer noch so einer großen Beliebtheit erfreuen, auch wenn sich die Begeisterung v. a. auf die bekannten Filme beschränkt.
-
Ich erinnere mich auch noch an einen Text auf einer Filmseite, in dem Mondo Music dafür gefeiert wurde, dass sie Waxmans Bride of Frankenstein auf LP bringen, obwohl La-La Land die CD bereits Monate zuvor veröffentlicht hatte. Aber da fehlen La-La halt der entsprechende Hipster-Nimbus (und vermutlich das Promo-Etat, das bei Mondo wohl beträchtlich ist) um in dieser Hinsicht wahr genommen zu werden.
-
Genau, das war die Quelle, das kam mir auch alles sehr spanisch vor. Kann mir eben höchstens vorstellen, dass Jarre im Gespräch oder ein Wunschkandidat war, aber mehr auch nicht.
-
Ich frage nur, weil ich meine mal gelesen zu haben, dass im Zusammenhang mit dem Projekt der Name Maurice Jarre gefallen ist. Aber es kann gut sein, dass ich da etwas durcheinander bringe.

Weiß man ob Bacalov schon immer als Komponist vorgesehen war, oder handelt es sich um eine spätere Entscheidung?

Von Quartet Records gibt es eine neue Doppel-LP mit Musik von Piero Piccioni: 'Shake & Soda'
ZitatQuartet Records is proud to celebrate the centenary of one of the most iconic, elegant and individual voices of Italian cinema for more than four decades: the one and only Piero Piccioni.
SHAKE AND SODA is a super-groovy journey to the maestro’s lounge-music side, always fresh, classy, risky and surprising in its form and development. From soft to free jazz, from shake to bossa, from calypso to bebop, from swing to reggae… Selections from some of his most famous and beloved film scores––LE STREGHE, SCACCO ALLA REGINA, CADAVERI ECCELENTI, COLPO ROVENTE, LA DECIMA VITTIMA, BORA BORA, CAMILLE 2000, PLAYGIRL 70, TUTTO A POSTO E NIENTE IN ORDINE, as well as some of his celebrated collaborations with Alberto Sordi in FUMO DI LONDRA, LE COPPIE, AMORE MIO AIUTAMI, and such rarities as his scores for the European versions of AFTER THE FOX and LE MEPRIS—are included in this exclusive 2-LP set pressed in 180 GM audiophile black vinyl. The luxurious artwork designed by Luca Barcellona is presented in a gatefold jacket with a selection of rare posters and liner notes by Claudio Fuiano. The album has been specially mastered for vinyl by Chris Malone.
This essential album of easy listening and innovative sound gives us the opportunity to enjoy the richness and timelessness of Piero Piccioni’s comprehensive genius.

Zum anstehenden 100. Geburtstag von Piero Piccioni gibt es von Quartet Records mit Colpo rovente und Il dio sotto la pelle zwei erweiterte Wiederveröffentlichungen.
ZitatQuartet Records presents an expanded, fully restored edition of cult Piero Piccioni score for the 1970 psychedelic thriller COLPO ROVENTE.
Production-designer–turned-director Piero Zuffi made this bizarre film set in the seedy underbelly of Off-Broadway productions, hippie communities, S&M bars and bike gangs. The story follows a serial killer on the loose and an investigator looking into an heiress’ kidnapping. With the help of editor Franco Arcalli, the movie was reconfigured into an effective fever dream with a non-linear structure.
Considering the film’s complicated postproduction, it’s surprising how well Piero Piccioni’s score is integrated into the picture. The wonderful kaleidoscope of psychedelic oddness favors the composer’s jazz roots and strong percussion work, but also features delightful bursts of source music as well as the self-contained brilliance of the occasional set pieces—including background scores for the experimental productions of the Off-Broadway world.
This highly addictive score, originally released on LP by RCA in 1970 and reissued twice on CD with extra tracks (on the Easy Tempo label in the nineties, and later on the Beatball label in South Korea) has been expanded to the max for this Quartet release. Chris Malone has restored and mastered the audio from crisp-sounding, first-generation master tapes recently discovered in the Piccioni estate and transferred at 96Kh. Produced by Claudio Fuiano, the release contains liner notes by Gergely Hubai discussing the film and the score in great detail
ZitatQuartet Records presents an expanded 2-CD release of Piero Piccioni’s classic score for the 1974 obscure mondo documentary IL DIO SOTTO LA PELLE, directed by Folco Quilici, Carlo Alberto Pinelli and Bruno Modugno.
Piccioni wrote a varied and colorful score packed with rich vibes ranging from exotic to progressive rock, with memorable percussion work and hypnotic organ effects. Orchestrated and conducted by the composer, the score features contributions by Edda Dell’Orso, the choir of Alessandro Alessandroni and, above all, three sumptuous songs performed by Catherine Howe.
Previously released in the nineties on the Easy Tempo label in hard-to-find LP and CD versions, and later expanded in 2020 by Sonor Records in a 2-LP edition, we can considerer this Quartet CD release the most complete edition so far, with 125 minutes of music, including all the music recorded by Piccioni for the film, and even the instrumental-only tracks for the songs. Mastered by Claudio Fuiano from original stereo session tapes, with additional restoration by Chris Malone, the album includes a full-color booklet featuring liner notes by film music journalist Marco Ferretti and an exclusive interview with Catherine Howe.

Bei All Score Media erscheint am 26. November eine leicht verlängerte Fassung von Peter Thomas' Winnetou und sein Freund Old Firehand auf CD und LP.
ZitatWinnetou und sein Freund Old Firehand (aka: Thunder at the Border, Winnetou and Old Firehand) war 1966 das Finale der Karl-May-Verfilmungen von Horst Wendlandts Rialto Film. Der von Kultregisseur Quentin Tarantino als Genie bezeichnete Alfred Vohrer (Perrak, Das gelbe Haus am Pinnasberg) inszenierte den Film - weg vom beschaulichen deutschen hin zum weitaus gewalttätigeren Spaghetti Western. Bei Kritikern und Fans löste dies ein zwiespältiges Echo aus, die Urteile reichten von „explosiv“ bis zu „der Tiefpunkt der Serie“.
Auch bei der Filmmusik wurde ein neuer Weg beschritten: Peter Thomas löste Martin Böttcher als „Winnetou-Komponist“ ab. Es sollte der einzige Karl-May-Film mit Peter-Thomas-Musik bleiben; nicht verwunderlich, befand er sich doch gerade in seiner produktiven Hochphase. Zwischen Edgar-Wallace-Krimis und Jerry-Cotton-Actionreißern war er somit mehr als gut beschäftigt. Erst 1980 kehrte Thomas mit der Musik zur TV-Serie Mein Freund Winnetou noch einmal zum Sujet zurück.
Es entstand ein Soundtrack, der als Link zwischen Böttchers Karl-May-Streichermelodien und der deutlich experimentelleren Italowestern-Filmmusik, beispielsweise eines Ennio Morricone, gehört werden kann.
Das vorliegende Album ist die Premiere dieses Scores auf Vinyl. Selbstverständlich wurden alle 42(!) Titel dafür neu gemastert. Auf der CD-Version finden sich zusätzlich drei bisher unveröffentlichte Titel, die im Nachlass Peter Thomas‘ gefunden wurden sowie ein Bonus-Titel mit dem Komponisten höchstselbst am Piano, wie er dem Filmproduzenten die ersten Themenvorschläge mitsamt seinen gesprochenen Anmerkungen präsentiert (aufgenommen 1966 in den Bavaria Tonstudios, München).
Nach Peter Thomas Sound Orchester – Bruce Lee: The Big Boss (CD/LP ASM 048, Allscore 2020) ist dies die zweite LP/CD-Veröffentlichung der neuen Reihe auf Allscore, die dem am 17. Mai 2020 in Lugano verstorbenen Komponisten Peter Thomas gewidmet ist.

Silva ist auch recht rührig in letzter Zeit: Demnächst kommt ein neues Album mit Barry Grays Musik aus der Gerry-Anderson-Serie Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons und ein Reissue von Mark Ishams The Hitcher.
ZitatFollowing the success of Thunderbirds, Gerry and Sylvia Anderson had proved they had hit upon a winning formula to wow audiences – their mixture of inventive special effects and puppetry: Supermarionation. First screened in 1967, Captain Scarlet And The Mysterons, was written as a more mature series, set against an ongoing war with a forboding unseen nemesis.
Taking his lead from the series premise, Captain Scarlet inspired composer Barry Gray to explore an equally mature musical palette to what he had utilised for previous Supermarionation series. With subtle string arrangements replacing the bombast of Thunderbirds’ urgency, the original music composed for Scarlet was suitably more atmospheric and at times more sober than its predecessors. The alien nature of the Mysterons themselves saw Gray return to the experimental electronic work he had composed for Fireball XL5 to create something suitably other worldly.
ZitatThe chilling road thriller, The Hitcher, was released in 1986 and starred Rutger Hauer as a murderous hitchhiker in a relentless pursuit of a young motorist, C. Thomas Howell. Critically maligned at the time, over the years the film has built up a cult following and has spawned a sequel and a remake. The original soundtrack has been unavailable for close to 30 years.
“Technically the music business was in a crossroads and new instruments and new instrument technologies were appearing every day. I availed myself of this “new” technology of “sampling” and brought in two drummers who played only originally sampled drums. I was still using my early system of a Prophet 5, an Oberheim 4 voice and my ARP 2600. To this I added this new keyboard, a Prophet 2000 (sampler). This was the “band”! – Mark Isham

Und noch mehr italienischer Genre-Klänge von Quartet: Morricone Il gatto a nove code als remasterte Neuauflage, eine erweiterte Fassung von Riz Ortolanis Nella stretta morsa del ragno und die erweiterte CD-Premiere von Daniele Patucchis Dimensione violenza.
ZitatZitatQuartet Records, in collaboration with GDM, presents a 50th-anniversary remastered edition of the cult-classic score by Ennio Morricone (THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY; SACCO E VANZETTI; NOVECENTO; THE MISSION; CINEMA PARADISO) for Dario Argento’s 1971 giallo THE CAT O’NINE TAILS (IL GATTO A NOVE CODE), starring James Franciscus, Karl Malden and Catherine Spaak.
The film is about a newspaper reporter and a retired, blind journalist who try to solve a series of killings connected to a pharmaceutical company’s top-secret experimental research projects; in doing so they become targets of the killer.
Ennio Morricone can be considered the inventor of the giallo sound, as he was the inventor of the Spaghetti Western sound or the political-cinema sound. For The Cat o’ Nine Tails, Morricone demonstrated his uncanny ability to range from melodies of exquisite, lyrical beauty to some of the most uncompromising and alienating avant-garde sound experimentation ever heard in film.
This anniversary edition, produced by Claudio Fuiano and Dániel Winkler, has been completely rebuilt and mastered by Chris Malone from first-generation master tapes. The full-color booklet includes in-depth liner notes by Jeff Bond.
ZitatQuartet Records, in collaboration with GDM, presents the 50th-anniversary complete edition of the haunting, innovative score composed by Riz Ortolani (MONDO CANE, THE YELLOW ROLLS-ROYCE, THE SEVENTH DAWN, LA VERGINE DI NORIMBERGA) for Antonio Margheriti’s stylish Italian gothic horror NELLA STRETTA MORSA DEL RAGNO (1971), starring Anthony Franciosa and Michéle Mercier, with Klaus Kinski in the role of Edgar Allan Poe!
The film was a remake of a previous horror classic, DANZA MACABRA, also directed by Margheriti in 1964, and also scored by Ortolani, about a journalist who takes a bet that he can spend the night in a haunted castle on All Hallows’ Eve. During his stay, he sees the castle’s gruesome past coming to life before him, and falls in love with a beautiful female ghost.
Whereas for the 1964 film Riz Ortolani wrote a completely symphonic score in the best Gothic tradition, for this 1971 version he compose a totally different score where his orchestration is now enriched with distorted guitars, a wider range of percussion and even a cembalo to reflect the Baroque music of the era, finding the right balance between the horrific and romantic aspects of the story. Ortolani also offered a beautiful “Waltz of the Dead” that is one of the most beautiful pieces he ever composed.
NELLA STRETTA MORSA DEL RAGNO has had several releases over the years on LP and CD, although none has been so complete as this one, which includes both the original RCA SP stereo album and, from recently discovered entire session masters in pristine condition, the full score in mono, as it was mixed for the film. Produced and mastered by Claudio Fuiano, with additional restoration by Chris Malone, the package includes liner notes by Gergely Hubai discussing the film and the score.
ZitatQuartet Records, in collaboration with Cinevox, presents the premiere CD edition of the cult score composed by Daniele Patucchi (LOS AMIGOS, EUTANASIA D’UN AMORE, PANE E CIOCCOLATA) for the obscure mondo-slasher shockumentary DIMENSIONE VIOLENZA (1985), directed by Mario Morra, about death, destruction and weird customs around the world.
During the 1980s, mondo movies were given a new lease on life by the emerging VHS market which allowed filmmakers to be even more gruesome. Although mondo movies from the period were premiered in theatres, their truly flourished on home video, where the interchangeability of the scenes made sure that each copy of the film could be tailor-made to the restrictions of the medium (VHS had different rules than cinematic showings) and the censorship of each market—as well as how much those rules were enforced. DIMENSIONE VIOLENZA is more “heads-on” in its handling of disturbing material.
Daniele Patucchi had already collaborated with Mario Morra on a previous bizarre documentary, DOLCE E SELVAGGIO, and in both films his music continues the tradition of the genre scores composed by Riz Ortolani and Nino Oliviero during the early sixties, where the music creates the shocking effect of juxtaposition as disquieting scenes of torture or death are contrasted with soft, even comic melodies. In this score, Patucchi also offers the usual eighties sound of synthesizers—including a Vangelis tribute—and a sort of new-age jazz mood, which represents a renewal in music for the genre.
DIMENSIONE VIOLENZA was originally released by Cinevox on a limited LP edition with ten cues, reproduced for the first time on CD with this release, along with the complete score; both are in pristine stereo sound. Produced by Claudio Fuiano, the package includes liner notes by Gergely Hubai discussing the film and the score.

Und neu von Beat: Die Erstveröffentlichung von Vasco Vassil Kojucharovs Musik für den Horrorfilm Byleth (Il demone dell'incesto) und eine Neuauflage von Ennio Morricones Score zu dem Giallo Gli occhi freddi della paura.
ZitatBeat Records is glad to release the first absolute edition of the soundtrack composed by Vasco Vassil Kojucharov for the movie Byleth il demone dell'incesto (1972, Leopoldo Savona).
From Nomus foundation archive, from which we have taken a number of scores composed by the Maestro, we make available this nice soundtrack that features the presence of melodic cues and sonic masses close to experimentation, both genres in which the artist makes a display of his usual talent, this time scoring a gothic horror with some red lights.
The CD is proposed in a jewel case box with a transparent tray, liner notes by Alessandro Bratus, mastering by Enrico De Gemini and graphic layout by Daniele De Gemini
ZitatBeat Records is happy to release on CD the OST composed by Ennio Morricone for the 1971 Giallo movie “Gli occhi freddi della paura” (aka “The Cold Eyes of Fear”), directed by Enzo G.Castellari with a screenplay by Enzo G. Castellari, Leo Anchóriz and Tito Carpi, photography by Antonio L. Ballesteros, editing by Vincenzo Tomassi and starring Giovanna Ralli, Gianni Garko, Fernando Rey, Julián Mateos, Karin Schubert, Frank Wolff , Franco Marletta, Leonardo Scavino and starring Giovanna Ralli, Frank Wolff, Julián Mateos, Fernando Rey and Karin Schubert.
The plot - Peter Badel, the young son of a judge, arrives back home with his girlfriend Anna and is held captive by two criminals who'd been lying in wait after killing the servant. The older of the two criminals, who'd been sentenced by Peter’s father to fifteen years in jail, plans to kill the judge when he returns home by blowing up the house with an explosive device. Peter and his girlfriend try everything in their power to communicate with the outside world, but their efforts are in vain. Desperate, the young man causes a short circuit that leaves the house in complete darkness. In the ensuing climactic fight scene, the two criminals and the girlfriend are killed, and Peter, the only survivor, battered and bleeding, awaits his father’s return.
The music - Ennio Morricone composed a score of the experimental kind, conducted by Bruno Nicolai and performed by Gruppo di improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza. With just a few instruments performing a sort of conversation, the Maestro effectively creates an avant- garde atmosphere, suspended and rarefied, alternating with other violent clashes of sound that provide the ideal background to the situation of pure terror in which the protagonists find themselves. For the making of this CD (with a total length of 55:54), the stereo master tapes of the original session were used, providing another discographic tribute to the musical art of Ennio Morricone and the cinematic art of director Enzo G. Castellari.
CD comes in jewel case with transparent tray, liner notes by Fabio Babini, mastering by Claudio Fuiano and graphic layout by Daniele De Gemini.

Müsste man schauen, aber wenn ich da z. Bsp. an Mondo Music denke, die ihre Titel bisweilen auch diverse Monate vor dem eigentlichen Veröffentlichungstermin ankündigen. Candyman zum Beispiel... Film ist längst angelaufen, aber das bereits vor Wochen vorgestellte Album kommt erst im Januar.
Der ausgewählte Track ist ja für Greenwoods Verhältnisse vergleichsweise zahm... bin mal gespannt, wie da im Score, die von ihm angesprochenen Free-Jazz-Elemente eingebracht werden. Aber auch so bin ich jetzt erstmal positiv gestimmt.

Von Dragon's Domain am 1. November: Ein Doppelalbum mit Chuck Cirinos Musik für die Horrorkomödien Witch Academy und Teenage Exorcist, 'The David Michael Frank Collection Vol. 1' mit den Scores zu dem Chuck-Norris-Streifen Code of Silence, dem Imax-Film Cosmic Journey und der zuvor digital veröffentlichen Präsentationsmusik für die Boeing 777 und Alan Howarths Musik für den 2009er Horrorfilm Basement Jack.
ZitatDragon’s Domain Records, to be distributed through buysoundtrax.com presents music composed by Chuck Cirino for TEENAGE EXORCIST and WITCH ACADEMY, two horror comedies from the composer’s extensive filmography. TEENAGE EXORCIST was written by Brinke Stevens and Ted Newsom, from a story by Fred Olen Ray, starring Brinke Stevens, Eddie Deezen, Oliver Darrow, John Henry Richardson, Tom Shell, Elena Sahagun, Robert Quarry and Michael Berryman. WITCH ACADEMY was directed by Fred Olen Ray, written by Mark Thomas McGee and stars Suzanne Ager, Priscilla Barnes, Michelle Bauer, Veronica Carothers, Ruth Collins, Don Dowe, John Henry Richardson and Robert Vaughn.
Released in 1991, TEENAGE EXORCIST tells the story of Diane, a neurotic, repressed grad student who moves into a cursed mansion and finds herself possessed by the house’s demonic master. Transformed into a raven-haired seductress, Diane begins to search for a virgin sacrifice for her master. Her sister and brother-in-law, along with an Irish priest, her boyfriend, and a pizza delivery boy arrive and try to save Diane and exorcise her demon. Directed by Grant Waldman and written by Brinke Stevens (who also stars) from a story by Fred Olen Ray, TEENAGE EXORCIST began as a project Ray intended to make. Having known Chuck Cirino from two of those previous three movies he’d worked on with Ray (as well as his directorial debut earlier that same year, THE CHANNELER), producer Grant Waldman brought him in to compose the film’s score. Cirino, an expert electronic musician and composer, had recently added an Roland D50 synthesizer to his array of electronic equipment, and used it for the first time on this score.
Released in 1995, WITCH ACADEMY, also known as LITTLE DEVILS, tells the story of Leslie Perkins, who is trying to pledge to an exclusive college sorority while the other members come up with twisted new ways to humiliate her and keep her out. However, the Devil has other plans for Leslie and helps transform her into one of his emissaries of temptation. But why has the Devil taken an interest in her? WITCH ACADEMY was the eleventh film Cirino had scored for Fred Olen Ray as director.
Chuck Cirino did not start his career as a composer, but rather as a programmer in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania for a Public Access cable TV station, where he learned how to create TV shows by himself, without a crew. In his spare time, he experimented with the station’s video equipment and created a series of genre productions that allowed him the opportunity to learn how to incorporate special effects into his work. After relocating to California, Cirino transitioned into directing high-end special effects television commercials. His first work as composer was for the 1980 cult film GYPSY ANGELS, which starred Vanna White and Richard Roundtree. Since then he has scored films for Roger Corman, directed music videos for bands like Earth, Wind & Fire and The Dickies’ KILLER KLOWNS FROM OUTER SPACE, and has recorded over 40 music soundtracks for feature films including SORCERESS, HARD TO DIE, TRANSYLVANIA TWIST, and many others. Most recently, he has scored A DOGGONE CHRISTMAS, A DOGGONE HOLLYWOOD and A DOGGONE ADVENTURE.
Chuck has worked as a producer, director, filmmaker, videographer, animator, special effects technician, editor, and composer. He executive produces and directs WEIRD TV, a television series featuring weird Americans, bizarre news, unbelievable events and outlandish skits. Chuck’s credits also include executive producer and director of the Sci Fi Channel projects, WORLDWIDE WEIRD and WARPED IN SPACE, and BABERELLAS, an independent Sci Fi feature distributed by Xenon Pictures.
Dragon’s Domain Records is excited to bring TEENAGE EXORCIST and WITCH ACADEMY to compact disc for the first time, presented on two CDs, mastered by James Nelson at Digital Outland with exclusive liner notes by author Randall Larson, with the participation of the composer and writer/director Fred Olen Ray.
TEENAGE EXORCIST/WITCH ACADEMY is a limited edition release of 500 units. As a special offer, the first 50 people to order the album from the record label’s website will have their copy autographed by the composer at no additional charge.
ZitatDragon’s Domain Records presents THE DAVID MICHAEL FRANK COLLECTION, Volume 1, featuring music composed by David Michael Frank. This first collection of David Michael Frank’s film music exhibits three scores from the mid 80’s and mid ‘90s, showing three very distinctly different styles and demonstrating different flavors of the composer’s expertise.
Released in 1985, CODE OF SILENCE was the first action film scored by David Michael Frank, and is also recognized as one of action star Chuck Norris’ best films. This was the fourth film for director Andrew Davis and Frank would collaborate with him again on his next film, ABOVE THE LAW, which launched action star Steven Seagal’s career and also increased the demand for the composer’s talents for scoring action films. Norris plays Eddie Cusack, a Chicago cop who gets caught in the middle of a gang war while his own comrades shun him because he wants to take down a corrupt fellow officer. Henry Silva has a memorable role as the film’s villain and would also return to play the villain in ABOVE THE LAW. Frank’s score for CODE OF SILENCE is a mix of sequencer material the director was fond of but most of the score is in the style of hip fusion, mid ‘80s style, with a rhythm section featuring some of Hollywood’s hottest musicians (George Doering on electric guitar, Neil Stubenhaus on bass, Vinnie Colaiuta on drums, and on keyboards Mike Lang, Randy Kerber, and Mike Boddicker.
Released in 1996, COSMIC VOYAGE was a short documentary film produced in the IMAX format, directed by Bayley Silleck and narrated by Morgan Freeman. The film, presented by the Smithsonian Institution’s National Air and Space Museum, sought to explore our place among the ever-expanding universe. The score was recorded at Skywalker Ranch with a 90-piece orchestra.
Also included, from 1994, music not from a film but a corporate event, from the BOEING 777 ROLLOUT. When the first of a new series of airliner is built, Boeing puts on a PR show, and in 1994, the 777 was their newest airplane. The rollout was a 10-minute event to present the new plans to the public, and Boeing wanted to make it the most spectacular one to date. Frank was hired to compose a ten-minute fanfare and suite for the rollout, which was a one-day presentation with 105,000 people gathered into Boeing’s large aircraft hangar.
David Michael Frank was born and raised in Baltimore, Maryland where he studied classical piano and composition at the Peabody Conservatory of Music. After graduating from Northwestern University, Frank moved to New York, where he became Broadway’s youngest conductor. After six years in New York, he relocated to California to pursue a career in film composition, where he’s scored numerous films of various types and over 200 episodes of television over more than forty years in media composition.

But this time, someone is waiting for him… Haunted by the loss of her family during Jack’s murder spree, Karen Cook has been waiting eleven years for her revenge.

Scheint tatsächlich keinen Thread dazu zu geben... wenn doch, dann bitte löschen. Auf jeden Fall veröffentlichen Silva im November eine CD mit Barrys Score für Blake Edwards' romantischen Agentenstreifen mit Julie Andrews und Omar Sharif in den Hauptrollen.

JOHN BARRY’S CLASSIC SOUNDTRACK TO BE RELEASED FOR THE FIRST TIME IN PHYSICAL AND DIGITAL FORMATS.
During John Barry’s 40 years of creating memorable film scores and theme songs, most of these have resulted in soundtrack album releases, with the one notable exception being the 1974 romantic spy thriller The Tamarind Seed. Silva Screen Records is pleased to release The Tamarind Seed, the first official release, in physical and digital formats.
Though an official soundtrack album was apparently never planned, the tracks selected for this release include all the major cues used in the film, together with Wilma Reading’s commercially released single. Included are two different versions of ‘The End’, with lyrics by Don Black and as performed by Danny Street, and different versions of both main and end title themes. Upon the original release LA Times described Barry’s score as “lush” whilst Variety, singled out the quality of the song by predicting “plenty of air and juke-box plays”. Entertainment Focus comments on the effect of the score on the listener as “likely to repeat in your head for days after watching the movie. Barry strongly captures the romantic element of the story, and his melodies are beautifully translated by the orchestra.”
Starring Julie Andrews and Omar Sharif, this slow burn romantic spy movie takes a different, human angle to tell a complicated story of Cold War and Love. Created by multi-award-winning director Blake Edwards, the Julie Andrews and Omar Sharif romance gently unfolds against a backdrop of Cold War paranoia.-
