    George Fenton ‎– The Company Of Wolves (Vinyl, LP, Album)
    Label: Cold Spring ‎– CSR299LP
    Format: Vinyl, LP, Album, Limited Edition, Reissue, 180g
    Country: UK
    Released: 2021
    Style: Modern Classical, Soundtrack

    Out of print for over 35 years, the official soundtrack to the cult 1984 film by Neil Jordan is finally available once again on vinyl format. The surreal and effective film – a true gem of British Gothic fantasy horror – has an equally atmospheric, breathtakingly beautiful, surreal and unsettling soundtrack, scored by George Fenton.

    The film itself, directed by Neil Jordan (The Crying Game, Breakfast On Pluto), and based on the screenplay by Angela Carter and Neil Jordan, is a modern allegorical adaptation of the classic Grimm fairy tale Little Red Riding Hood, symbolising sexual awakening, duality and liberation. The stellar cast features Sarah Patterson, Angela Lansbury, Stephen Rea, David Warner, and Danielle Dax.

    «There is a sense of awe and enchanted wonder encaptured in its fairy tale sound, swooping with cascading violins and dark mysterious undercurrents that bubble below the surface… The score flows effortlessly between its light and dark moments. Most importantly, moments of beauty are not lost to the sense of suspense and drama. Indeed, light always needs its companion of shadow, as the film suggests in the sexual awakening of the pure untainted innocence that is Rosaleen. This score perfectly demonstrates the beauty of the juxtaposition between the sounds of youth and the temptation of desire» (L. Hammond)

    «The film largely takes place in the dream world so I made this the
    home base for the orchestra. To a large extent the scoring in this area
    is conventional, perhaps a little impressionistic and hopefully reflects
    a curious but endearing world. This left me free to invent sounds
    for the stories within the dream world. I wanted to use a mixture
    of electronics and ‘live’ instruments, and after some experimenting,
    arrived at a line-up of three bass flutes, Pan Pipes, violins, one, two
    or three solo double basses, percussion and Synclavier II synthesizer» (George Fenton, 1984)

    Oscar-nominated / Emmy & BAFTA-winning composer George Fenton has created stunning scores for major films and television such as: Gandhi, Dangerous Liaisons, The Wind That Shakes The Barley, Frozen Planet and countless others over the last 40 years.

    Buio Mondo ‎– Herederos De La Bestia (Original Soundtrack, Vinyl, Red/ Black swirl )

    Label: One Way Static Records ‎– OWS23
    Format: Vinyl, 10", 33 ⅓ RPM, Album, Limited Edition, Red/ Black swirl
    Country: US
    Released: 26 Jan 2018
    Style: Soundtrack

    Herederos De La Bestia’ is documentary film about Álex de la Iglesia’s classic 1995 apocalypse-horror story ‘El Dia De La Bestia’ (The Day Of The Beast). More than two decades after its premiere, the movie continues to be THE great go-to example if you want to mix the most brutal fantastic with the Spanish tradition of the grotesque. Comprised of equal parts high-concept horror and scathing social satire (in the mode of the director’s peer and former collaborator Pedro Almodovar), this ambitious horror film has garnered a sizable cult following. It’s just impossible to imagine present-day Spanish cinema without it.

    ‘Herederos De La Bestia’ interviews the crew responsible for Álex de la Iglesia’s masterpiece and assesses its still relevant influence. Part of the official 2016 Sitges festival selection, this superb documentary is currently still being screened at festivals around the world.

    It’s no surprise that the makers turned to the Spanish outfit ‘Buio Mondo’ to underscore their hard work. Buio Mondo is a project that pays tribute to the giallo and the slasher genres and is best known for their previous (and very successful) album ‘Italia Violenta’. Mixing wild metal riffs, powerfull electronics and dark brooding ‘Carpenter-esque’ synth atmospheres results in a nightmarish soundscape that will haunt you in your dreams.

    Presented here is the COMPLETE & EXTENDED score to ‘Herederos De La Bestia’.

    Available as a 10” vinyl edition limited to 666 copies (with obi strip). 333 units on classic black vinyl & 333 units color vinyl (red & black swirl vinyl).
