Photograph by Hugues Erre Chris Hodge We're On Our Way Amboy Dukes Journey To the Center of Your Mind Hawkwind Silver Machine Signed by Apple Records on the basis of his Bolan-esque appeal, Ringo-approved psychonaut Chris Hodges released this 1972 single. Along with atypical Morricone-like flourishes [...]
In 2010, Solar Bears crafted an album that is at once an homage to Andrei Tarkovsky, Alejandro Jodorowsky and Stanley Kubrick films by way of Tangerine Dream, Ennio Morricone and Boards of Canada. I've not been this excited about a band in quite some time. With Boards of Canada in silent-running mode for six years now, and no one taking up the mantal of warped film soundtrack music, Solar Bears appearance on the electronic music scene couldn't have come at a better [...]
Think of your favorite film right now. Chances are high that along with an incredible scene, you remember the music, as well. So much attention is put on the actors, the director, the script, the story, and the visuals that the songs supporting them almost slide underneath the surface. Sometimes a really good composer can say more with a single note or melody than pages of dialogue. They evoke every emotion possible, from fear to happiness to melancholy, all while having pretty catchy melodies. It’s a way of creating an instant connection for the viewer, even before they’ve really figured [...]
I have vague memories of pestering my parents to allow me to stay up and watch Gunsmoke on Monday nights. That long-running television Western was off the air before I reached grade school. I grew up in what was probably the first wave of kids for who Westerns weren't an essential part of childhood. And, instead of John Wayne, I think Clint Eastwood. (in truth, I've never really watched a John Wayne movie of any kind) Eastwood's Unforgiven , The Outlaw Josie Wales , and High Plains [...]
L'Estasy Dell'oro (The Ecstasy of Gold). This song might be the most epic track of all time. Not only in composition and brilliant arrangement, but in title as well. Seriously, i know the majority of you out there will have heard this track, but will not know where to place it and all. I have never seen the movie that made this track famous, The Good, The Bad and The Ugly; yet it ranks up top near #1 on my MUST SEE list, but upon hearing the first bar after my boy Doug sent it my way, i knew exactly [...]
Oki-ni , la tienda de ropa y accesorios, hizo un espacio en su página para que a DJs, grupos musicales y productores pudieran elegir sus canciones favoritas y con ese material armar un playlist. Lo particular de la iniciativa, es que cada uno de las mezclas es acompañada de una polera estampada edición limitada (fotografía) que busca representar "el espíritu del mix". The Go! Team es el nuevo invitado a colaborar en este proyecto. Uno de sus integrantes, y fundador, Ian Parton, comenta que este mix acerca a las fuentes de inspiración del [...]
Or 1930s Manchuria. Let's make sure we all don't wear the same bandana. Calexico - Close Behind Ennio Morricone - Per Qualche Dollaro In Più (Dance Mix)
C'est proprement incompréhensible ! Le score commis par Daft Punk pour accompagner la sortie de Tron Legacy récolte ici ou là (liste non limitative) de bien piteuses critiques. Une situation d'autant plus étonnante que depuis 6 mois, et le début du marketing autour de ce petit film guère attendu au tournant par 8,73 millions de geeks, chacun [...]
Filed under: Exclusive , Count Five Lost in the Trees frontman Ari Picker has cited the soundtrack for the Wes Anderson film 'The Royal Tenenbaums' as being one of his primary influences, and upon hearing the band's 2007 EP, 'Time Taunts Me,' it's pretty hard not to draw a correlation to the quirky flick. Currently studying film composition at the Berklee School of Music where he's chipping away at 12 more credits whenever he isn't [...]
“Okay, we’ve got red, orange, and purple,” Gin said. “Now we just need yellow, green, and blue.” “Don’t forget indigo,” Sandy said as she scanned the row of lipstick tubes. “What are you talking about?” “Indigo,” Sandy repeated as if that explained everything. “You know. ROY G. BIV. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet.” [...]
From Jacques Dutronc's L'Amour à la Chaîne we move on to... Françoise Hardy 's Je Changerais D'Avis . There are some obvious links: We could focus in on Dutronc and Hardy , arguably French pop's most beautiful couple , who finally married in 1981, and only recently separated (though they still remain close); Or on the fact both tracks were released on the Disques Vogue label; It's also worth [...]
Ennio Morricone: Farewell To Cheyenne
20102s lack of a go to record has urged me to explore other mediums of music, stuff you won't find on Pitchfork or Stereogum. I've been focusing on a lot of older music, re-issues, and compilations. I've always been getting into movie soundtracks and scores, which is a bit odd because I've never been a [...]
Most probably the grooviest Ennio Morricone's song I know. And you can even sing out loud "Supercaaaaar Gattigeeeeer" over the chorus... neat.

Eins sú hyldjúpasta tónlistarlega gullnáma sem ég hef haft þá ánægju að kafa ofan í nýlega birtist mér í formi safnplatnanna Written in Blood sem maður að nafni Nate Ashley setti saman. Segir sagan að hann hafi verið allan síðasta áratug að safna saman tónlistinni í þetta stórmerkilega safn en það inniheldur sjaldgæfa, óútgefna og illfáanlega tónlist úr hryllingsmyndum síðustu hálfrar aldar. Safnið inniheldur vel yfir 100 lög og er þar að finna verk eftir meistara eins og Ennio Morricone , Johan Soderqvist, Lalo Schifrin , François de Roubaix [...]
Grande figure de la musique folk américaine des années 1960, Joan Chandos Baez a consacré sa carrière à la défense de nombreuses causes. Son répertoire reflète souvent ses engagements. On lui doit notamment l'interprétation de "Here's To You" composée par Ennio Morricone pour la bande originale du film Sacco et Vanzetti traitant de l'affaire éponyme. Sa tournée au nom des droits civiques pour les Noirs Américains en 1963 donna lieu aux premières apparitions de Bob Dylan à ses côtés sur scène, ainsi qu'à [...]

Joseph A. Morse, San Quentin Prison's Death Row, 1972. After nearly a decade of subsisting on valium, seconal, prison-made wine and a little heroin, I was introduced to LSD. My fellow condemned prisoners were a little reluctant to try the new chemical because of the gloomy environment, but I had practically been raised on death [...]
Today's post contains something old and something new: Ennio Morricone's 'The Ecstasy of Gold' has been rattling around my internal jukebox for the last week or so (In no part due to watching 'Some Kind Of Monster' ). Spec-fucking-tacular. Ennio Morricone- The Ecstasy of Gold (Download) Blue Daisy's newie seems him pair up with fellow metallic beat head Tokimonsta : They provide a couple of luminous anthems for a fractured dance floor.
