FEMINA RIDENS SONG / SOPHISTICATED SHAKE
Limited Edition 7″ – 400 copies
OUT ON 31 MAY 2019
SIDE A: Femina Ridens Song (sung by Olympia)
SIDE B: Sophisticated Shake (vocals by Edda Dell’Orso)
The two most danceable tracks taken from Cipriani’s cult OST, now finally for the first time on a 7-inch record. “Femina Ridens” features an exhilarating and ‘arioso’ orchestration which accompanies the beguiling voice of Olympia (one of the female vocalists of I Cantori Moderni di Alessandroni), whose awkward British diction turns a feminist lyric into a powerful and irresistibly sensuous song. On the flip side, “Sophisticated Shake” is a sumptuous jewel of psychedelic jazz in which Edda Dell’Orso’s vocal is perfectly nested. A must have for collectors and DJs!

BABA YAGA
Super Limited Collector’s Edition | 250 copies with Gold label and Sleeve
Side A: OPEN SPACE
Side B: SLOGAN
The music composed by Piero Umiliani for BABA YAGA / DEVIL WITCH (1973, Corrado Farina) – the film inspired by the ultra pop comic books of Guido Crepax, VALENTINA – is one of the most mysterious and fascinating works to be found in the corpus of the Maestro. Of this maudit work that experts considered lost only two tracks survived, those that we present here for the first time in a single 45 RPM: OPEN SPACE, a blazing up-tempo acid jazz with psychedelic insets and galloping bass tones that was used in the title credits and then released in that same year inside the masterpiece entitled TO-DAY’S SOUND; and SLOGAN, that reworks the film’s theme – initially played by a languid sax – in a jazz-funk key (published in 1975 in the background music series of the library BON VOYAGE).
