Snow Files of the Week: „Night Forest/Forest Search" aus „The X-Files", Episode „Pilot" (1993). So fing alles an. 1993, die erste Folge „The X-Files" mit einem für spätere Verhältnisse fast schon rohem Score von Mark Snow. Man merkt, dass hier noch alles neu war und alle Beteiligten sich erst einmal in dieser neuen Welt zurechtfinden mussten. Dennoch hört man auch hier schon die düsteren Klanglandschaften, mit der Snows Musik die Serie ebenso prägen sollte, wie seine wundervollen Themen. Viel Spaß beim Hören!

Und die „Rob Zombie Presents"-Reihe geht weiter: Rob Zombie and Waxwork Records have partnered to release an exclusive, curated line of classic Horror movie soundtracks. “Rob Zombie Presents” features several never-before-released film soundtracks that were personally selected by the singer, songwriter, and filmmaker. “I have always been a huge fan of movie soundtracks. So I jumped at the opportunity to work with Waxwork on this project.” Says Zombie, “I can’t wait to release these albums. So many of these films are greatly under appreciated and, they all contain such great music. So, to be able to release these deluxe packages is a dream come true.“ - Rob Zombie Rob Zombie and Waxwork Records are thrilled to announce “Rob Zombie Presents CARNIVAL OF SOULS Original Motion Picture Soundtrack by Gene Moore". Starring Candace Hilligoss, CARNIVAL OF SOULS is a 1962 American psychological Horror film directed by Herk Harvey. The plot follows a young woman whose life is disturbed after becoming the sole survivor of a car accident. Trying to put the incident behind her, she moves to Utah to take up a job as a church organist. Unable to assimilate with the locals, her life is soon interrupted by visions of a ghoulish stranger. As her visions become more frequent, she finds herself strangely drawn to an abandoned carnival on the outskirts of town. The alluring, deserted carnival may hold the secret to her tragic past. CARNIVAL OF SOULS features an organ score by Gene Moore. Employing various guerrilla filmmaking techniques and shot on a shoestring budget of only $33,000, CARNIVAL OF SOULS has become a cult classic and has been praised by critics and film scholars for its cinematography and its stark, foreboding atmosphere. Waxwork worked closely with the owners of the original CARNIVAL OF SOULS film elements which have been restored by and archived in the vaults of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. AMPAS restored the soundtrack from the film's original soundtrack negative, allowing the holders of this historical film to provide Waxwork with the best possible source material. This special release marks the first, official CARNIVAL OF SOULS soundtrack album. In addition to the original soundtrack, this release features segments of dialogue and sound effects eloquently and tastefully included, all sourced from the restored original soundtrack negative. After working together on the successful release of the official soundtracks to Zombie’s films House of 1000 Corpses, The Devils Rejects, 3 From Hell, The Lords of Salem, Halloween 1 & 2, and The Munsters, Zombie explored other ways to collaborate with Waxwork in an effort to unearth, re-master, and release classic, left-of-center Horror soundtracks from films that he is a lifelong fan of. The line of soundtracks features deluxe packaging, heavyweight colored vinyl, new artwork by prominent Horror illustrator Graham Humphreys, liner notes and interviews conducted by Rob Zombie with filmmakers and actors. Titles include premiere releases of White Zombie, Spider Baby, Carnival Of Souls, The Last Man On Earth, The House On Haunted Hill, Island Of Lost Souls, and many selections from the HAMMER film library.

Meine CD ist auch die Tage angekommen und mir ist zumindest bisher nichts negatives aufgefallen. Ich hatte keine Abspielprobleme und auch oberflächlich sieht die CD normal aus.

Snow Files of the Week: "Prologue/Main Title/The Boys Find The Cave/The Kiss/Happy Ending" aus dem TV-Film THE LITTLE KIDNAPPERS (1990). Für diese Disney-Channel-Produktion konnte Mark mal wieder auf ein volles Orchester zurückgreifen. Der von einer Solo-Flöte eingeleitete "Main Title" mausert sich im weiteren Verlauf zu einem schwelgerischen Stück Musik und das Thema taucht auch immer wieder im Score auf. Die Musik betritt dann sogar beschwingte Kinderabenteuer-Pfade in Tracks wie "The Boys Find The Cave". Alles in allem ein klangschöner Abenteuer-Drama-Score, der wieder einmal zeigt, dass Snow auch abseits der X-Akten musikalisch durchaus zu überzeugen weiß. Die Musik ist, gekoppelt mit Snows Musik zu IN THE LINE OF DUTY: SMOKE JUMPERS, auf der "Mark Snow Collection Volume 1" von Dragon's Domain Records erschienen. Die CD ist auf 500 Exemplare limitiert. Viel Spaß beim Hören!

Die einst von MV ins Gespräch gebrachten einzelnen Volumes zu bestimmen Episoden der X-Files würde ich noch anbieten. Allerdings wird es auch da wohl eher auf Wiederveröffentlichungen hinauslaufen. Vol. 2 ist ja auch schon länger ausverkauft.

Newman ist raus, Bear McCreary hat übernommen.

Snow Files of the Week: „No place like home/Silo" aus „The X-Files", Episoden „Triangle" und „Apocrypha" (1996-1998). Hier hören wir zwei Seiten von Snows X-Files-Musik. „No place like home" ist ein weiteres, wundervolles Piano-Thema, welches aus dem X-Files-Thema erwächst. In „Silo" kommen wieder mysteriöse Klanglandschaften und treibende Action zum Zuge. Auch diese Tracks stammen vom vierten Set von LLL, welches auf 2.000 Exemplare limitiert ist. Viel Spaß beim Hören!

Neu von Quartet: Quartet Records, in collaboration with Sony EMI Music Publishing Italia and GDM, presents a greatly expanded release of an Armando Trovajoli gem from a Marcello Mastroianni comedy. Directed by Mario Monicelli in 1965, CASANOVA ’70 tells the story of UN diplomat Andrea Rossi-Colombotti, whose globetrotting adventures leave him sexually frustrated. Women throw themselves at the handsome man, but he unfortunately has performance issues: he can only get aroused if there is some sort of chase involved. The film showcases almost a dozen colorful episodes in this modern Casanova’s life as one woman decides to get him for good. Armando Trovajoli’s score features a central Casanova theme, which changes orchestration based on the nature of his adventures – though most cues retain a funky atmosphere and, like our hero’s performance, they are often cut short in a comedic fashion in the film. Luckily the album features the complete takes plus other highlights such as the esoteric, Asian-flavored cues for our Casanova’s psychoanalyst, as well as the cool percussion motive that sets up every “hunt” in the film. Previous LP and CD releases only featured about 30 minutes of highlights that included tracks that combined different cues. This 73-minutes-long CD begins with a largely chronological presentation, and includes in the bonus section several edits created specifically for the LP. Produced by Claudio Fuiano with the support of the Trovajoli estate, and mastered by Chris Malone, the release includes a lavishly illustrated 12-page book with liner notes by Gergely Hubai discussing the film and the score.

For Marcello (2:56) Quartet Records, in collaboration with GDM, presents an Armando Trovajoli double-header with two infectious scores for classic Italian comedies by Dino Risi and Pasquale Festa Campanile, both released in 1969. VEDO NUDO is a portmanteau film directed by Dino Risi and starring Nino Manfredi in seven episodes of erotically charged madness. After the opening song, “Let’s Find Out” by Isabel Bond (accompanied by a suitably Bond-inspired titles sequence), the various episodes have different amounts and types of underscoring. Some are unscored, while others have wall-to-wall music, with the final segment, “Il dete nuto,” featuring the most amount of music for the funky 1960s photo shoots. Pasquale Festa Campanile’s DOVE VAI TUTTA NUDA? is a more traditional comedy about a love triangle between an employee, his wife and a boss – with a thief thrown in for good measure. The film is relatively sparsely scored with an obvious focus on the theme song, ‘Dove vai tutta nuda?’ performed by the film’s star, Maria Grazia Buccella and I Cantori Moderni di Alessandroni. Trovajoli composed a short original score for this film, using some repertoire tracks and others that had just been recorded for VEDO NUDO. The selected highlights include the love theme for the married couple as well as the “Shake” played during the various break-ins of Vittorio Gassman’s master-thief character, Rufus Conforti. VEDO NUDO was previously released on CD only in a 1997 Japanese limited edition, and nothing but the theme song from DOVE VAI TUTTA NUDA? has been previously released. Claudio Fuiano produced this Quartet duo with the support of the Trovajoli estate, and Chris Malone mastered the audio. The lavishly illustrated 12-page liner notes by Gergely Hubai discuss the films and their scores. VEDO NUDO 1. Let’s Find Out (Titoli di Testa) (3:31) 2. Vedo Nudo (Diva Waltz) (2:16) 3.

(Finale) (2:13) Quartet Records, in collaboration with Universal Music Publishing Italia and GDM, presents a greatly expanded edition of one of the most celebrated collaborations between composer Armando Trovajoli and director Ettore Scola. BRUTTI, SPORCHI E CATTIVI (1976) is about a poor outlaw family living in the suburbs of Rome. Headed by patriarch Giacinto Mazzatella (Nino Manfredi), the family practices all sorts of debauchery in the midst of the shantytown. When Giacinto comes into a fortune due to an insurance payment, he plans to spend it all on himself while his descendants try to find the treasure. Unfortunately, he may have also forgotten its whereabouts… Trovajoli’s catchy score includes a theme song for the unusual family as well as a strong main theme featuring solo harmonica and synthesizers. The youngest children of the family, who are kept in a play cage, are immortalized in a folksier tune. A host of fun source cues emanate from the family’s most important treasure, a TV only capable of broadcasting RAI programming. The score for BRUTTI, SPORCHI AND CATTIVI was originally released on a 12-track LP by RCA; a GDM CD reissue came out in 2009 with one bonus track. This 76-minutes-long CD contains the remastered original album as well as the film versions and bonus material, thus including everything recorded by the composer for the film. Produced by Claudio Fuiano with the support of the Trovajoli estate, and mastered by Chris Malone, the release includes a lavishly illustrated 12-page book with liner notes by Gergely Hubai discussing the film and the score. 1.

Kam von Music Box Records: Expanded and remastered edition. 8-page CD booklet with French and English liner notes by Gilles Loison. In collaboration with Gaumont, Music Box Records proudly presents on CD the original motion picture soundtrack of the French animated film Astérix et le Coup du menhir (Asterix and the Big Fight, 1989) composed and conducted by Michel Colombier. After Asterix the Gaul (1967), Asterix and Cleopatra (1968), The Twelve Tasks of Asterix (1976), Asterix Versus Caesar (1985) and Asterix in Britain (1986), Michel Colombier came after Gérard Calvi and Vladimir Cosma for this new Asterix and Obelix adventure. The creators (Yannick Piel and Philippe Grimond) chose to base the story on the comic book Asterix and the Soothsayer, adding as a prologue the druid Getafix’s head injury, caused by a menhir in the comic book Asterix and the Big Fight, which makes him lose his mind. As for the film’s music, they wanted a broad symphonic score in the style of early 20th century Russian music, but not a full-on pastiche and were seduced by Michel Colombier’s work, notably his score for the movie The Golden Child (1986), mixing synthetic sounds, percussion and orchestral elements such as brass instruments and strings. Michel Colombier composed an orchestral score with atmospheres reminiscent of Prokofiev, Shostakovich or Stravinsky. This present edition has been fully remastered from DAT session mixes courtesy Michel Colombier's vaults and features previously unreleased music. The package includes an 8-page booklet with liner notes by Gilles Loison, discussing the film and the score. The CD release is limited to 500 units. 1. Le Druide dans la forêt (Générique) (1:39) 2. Le coup du menhir (3:00) 3. Zonked (version française) (1:04) 4. Le Devin (2:41) 5. Bagarre gauloise (2:49) 6. Le Devin dans la forêt (2:13) 7. Le soldat volant (2:14) 8. Le départ (1:56) 9.

In collaboration with Dargaud Media, Music Box Records is pleased to reissue the soundtracks from the Lucky Luke animated films composed and conducted by Claude Bolling in a 3-CD box set: Daisy Town (1971), La Ballade des Dalton (The Ballad of the Daltons, 1978) and 1990's French television series (Lucky Luke, TV Series 2). Lucky Luke is a Belgian comics series created by Belgian cartoonist Morris, and for one period written by René Goscinny. Set in the American Old West, it stars the title character Lucky Luke, the singing cowboy on a white horse known as the "man who shoots faster than his shadow", largely inspired by westerns, American cartoons and Hergé’s Tintin. Morris drew no less than seventy albums of the adventures of Lucky Luke, 300 million books have been sold and the stories of the lone cowboy have been translated into 29 languages. It is one of the most popular and best-selling comic-book series in continental Europe. Goscinny, the creator of Astérix, directed and co-produced the French-Belgian animated Lucky Luke films. Goscinny and Morris engaged the services of Pierre Tchernia (French cinema and television producer, screenwriter), whom Goscinny had known since 1965 and with whom he shared a great interest in the world of Walt Disney. In 1990, a new series of 26 episodes is produced with the collaboration of Morris. This present edition showcases Claude Bolling's creative versatility for the two feature-length cartoons and the TV series. The three lively scores offer a wide array of musical styles and genres: western film music, Hollywood musicals, blue grass, tijuana music, jazz music in the Count Basie big band style, some iconic songs such as the famous ‘‘I’m a Poor Lonesome Cowboy’’. This special 3-CD reissue has been newly remastered from the composer’s original master tapes. The package includes a 12-page booklet with liner notes by Gilles Loison, discussing the films and the scores. The 3-CD release is limited to 300 units. DISC 1 – DAISY TOWN (1971) 1.

Snow Files of the Week: „Only way to escape/Lamp/Chimera Man/Fix it for good" aus „The X-Files", Episoden „Talitha Cumi", "Gethsemane" and "Redux II" (1995-1998). Eine bunte Mischung aus verschiedenen Episoden, die aber alle beinhalten, was wir an Marks Musik so lieben: die sanften, ruhigen Piano-Passagen, geheimnisvolle Mystery-Klänge, unheimliche Klanglandschaften und melancholische Streicher. Die Tracks stammen vom vierten Set von LLL, welches auf 2.000 Exemplare limitiert ist. Viel Spaß beim Hören!

Das ist aber kein großes Geheimnis. Wenn sich ein Titel irgendwann nur noch schleppend oder gar nicht mehr verkauft, dann werden die restlichen CDs der Auflage natürlich nicht mehr produziert. Für wen denn auch, wenn es keiner mehr kauft? Da hat MV schon öfter mal Titel genannt, bei denen das der Fall war. Umgekehrt sichert sich ein Label vertraglich sicherlich eine höhere Auflage, als die angegebene Höhe auf der CD. Ganz einfach deshalb, weil man bei einem gut laufenden Titel, der die Auflage komplett verkauft, später noch mal eine zweite Veröffentlichung nachschieben kann, ohne nochmals alles verhandeln zu müssen. Bei einer 3.000er Auflage hat sich das Label vertraglich beispielsweise eine 5.000er Auflage gesichert und kann nach dem Abverkauf der ersten Auflage später noch mal 2.000 Stück nachschieben. Hat LLL auch schon öfter gemacht (DIE HARD, HOME ALONE, X-FILES, MILLENNIUM). Ist natürlich auch psychologisch cleverer, erstmal eine geringere Limitierung zu kommunizieren. Damit auch eventuelle Zögerer doch schnell zuschlagen, bevor die Auflage weg ist.

Snow Files of the Week: "M. Magdalene/Divine Daughter" aus "MillenniuM", Episode "Anamnesis" (1998). Dies ist eine von nur zwei Episoden der ganzen Serie, bei der Frank Black seiner Frau Catherine die Bühne überlässt. Zusammen mit Lara Means ermittelt Catherine im Fall eines Schulmädchens, welches angeblich Visionen hat, die sie direkt von Jesus bekommt. Marks Musik passt sich dem religiösen Thema der Folge an. Es gibt ein sanftes Piano-Thema für das Mädchen und sphärische Chorgesänge für ihre Visionen. Ebenso kommt die gesampelte Flöte aus der Folge "Luminary" wieder zum Einsatz. Die Stücke stammen vom zweiten Set von LLL, welches auf 2000 Stück limitiert ist. Das Set ist ausverkauft. Viel Spaß beim Hören!

Waxwork und Rob Zombie haben eine Zusammenarbeit gestartet, um bisher unveröffentlichte Scores zu Horrorfilmen zu veröffentlichen. Scheinbar erstmal nur auf Vinyl. Den Anfang macht WHITE ZOMBIE, der Film mit Bela Lugosi von 1932. Folgen sollen wohl noch Spider Baby, Carnival Of Souls, The Last Man On Earth, The House On Haunted Hill, Island Of Lost Souls und viele andere Titel aus dem Archiv der Hammer-Studios. Rob Zombie and Waxwork Records have partnered to release an exclusive, curated line of classic Horror movie soundtracks. “Rob Zombie Presents” will feature several never-before-released film soundtracks that were personally selected by the singer, songwriter, and filmmaker. “I have always been a huge fan of movie soundtracks. So I jumped at the opportunity to work with Waxwork on this project.” Says Zombie, “I can’t wait to release these albums. So many of these films are greatly under appreciated and, they all contain such great music. So, to be able to release these deluxe packages is a dream come true.“ - Rob Zombie Rob Zombie and Waxwork are thrilled to announce their first soundtrack title as “Rob Zombie Presents WHITE ZOMBIE”. Starring Bela Lugosi, 1932’s WHITE ZOMBIE is considered the first zombie movie. It was also filmed on Universal Studio’s lot, using several props from other horror films of that time. Starring Madge Bellamy, Robert W. Frazer, and John Harron, the film follows the cast as they navigate zombies, love, obsession, and treachery. Initially slammed by critics upon its release, the movie has been reevaluated and praised by recent critics for its classic horror production. The film has gone on to influence mainstream media, even influencing the band name of White Zombie. Rob Zombie has said of the film, “It’s a great film that not a lot of people know about. It amazes me that a film that is so readily available can be so lost.” After working together on the successful release of the official soundtracks to Zombie’s films House of 1000 Corpses, The Devils Rejects, 3 From Hell, The Lords of Salem, Halloween 1 & 2, and The Munsters, Zombie explored other ways to collaborate with Waxwork in an effort to unearth, re-master, and release classic, left-of-center Horror soundtracks from films that he is a life-long fan of. The line of soundtracks features deluxe packaging, heavyweight colored vinyl, new artwork by prominent Horror illustrator Graham Humphreys, liner notes and interviews conducted by Rob Zombie with filmmakers and actors. Titles include premiere releases of Spider Baby, Carnival Of Souls, The Last Man On Earth, The House On Haunted Hill, Island Of Lost Souls, and many selections from the HAMMER film library.

Snow Files of the Week: „Origins/Base Camp", aus „The X-Files", Episode „Firewalker" (1994). Der Wissenschaftler Dr. Pierce überwacht die Übertragung des Forschungsroboters „Firewalker", der vulkanische Aktivitäten im Mount Avalon dokumentieren soll. Während der Übertragung entdeckt Dr. Pierce auf den Bildern die Leiche des Forschungsleiters Erickson. Und einen Schatten, der sich dort scheinbar bewegt, was aufgrund der hohen Temperaturen für jedes Lebewesen tödlich wäre, bevor die Kamera des Roboters zerstört wird. Mulder und Scully werden auf den Fall angesetzt und schon bald entdeckt Mulder, dass die Wissenschaftler scheinbar einen fremdartigen Organismus in den Tiefen des Mount Avalon gefunden haben. Mark webt das Titelthema in den Track „Origins" ein, während „Base Camp" ein an die 80er Jahre erinnerndes, sphärisches Stück Musik ist. Beide Tracks stammen vom vierten Set von LLL, welches auf 2.000 Exemplare limitiert ist. Viel Spaß beim Hören!

Dafür kostet die CD auch „nur" 12 Dollar. Klar, mit Versand hierher sind es wieder 30 Dollar. Aber sagen wir mal so, auch Intrada hat schon CDs veröffentlicht, die unter einer halben Stunde liefen und trotzdem den normalen Intrada-Preis gekostet haben. Mit 12 Dollar kommt man dem Käufer bei der Länge zumindest etwas entgegen.

Einer der ganz frühen Elfman-Scores und bisher tatsächlich unveröffentlicht. Erscheint als CD und in verschiedenen Vinyl-Varianten. Rusted Wave and 1984 Publishing, in conjunction with Paramount Pictures, are proud to present....for the first time ever....Danny Elfman's score to the 80s comedy classic SUMMER SCHOOL! After Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure, but before Beetlejuice, Danny Elfman brought his scoring talents to the 1987 Mark Harmon/Kirstie Alley remedial English comedy SUMMER SCHOOL. While the film was met with a tepid box office and critical performance, decades later the movie found a fervent cult following with both comedy and horror fans. For over 35 years, SUMMER SCHOOL’s Elfman score was the only soundtrack in his film canon to remain unreleased…until now! The complete Elfman score is newly remastered from the original audio tapes, and contains two recently-unearthed Elfman compositions that were not used in the film. The CD booklet features rare film stills. The SUMMER SCHOOL CD is limited to 500 copies worldwide. On Sale April 25, 2023 (pre-order). Shipping in May.

Snow Files of the Week: "A Message of Faith" aus "Night Sins" (1997). Die Musik zu diesem TV-Thriller ist natürlich geprägt von Snows damaligen aktuellen Arbeiten zu "X-Files" und "MillenniuM". Ein schönes Hauptthema begleitet den Hörer durch den Score, welches in diesem Track seine schönste Präsentation bekommt. Snow reichert das Stück durch einen sphärischen Chor an und zeigt außerdem mal wieder, dass er einfach tolle Piano-Themen schreiben kann. Die Musik zu "Night Sins" wurde von BSX veröffentlicht, limitiert auf 1000 Stück. Viel Spaß beim Hören!

Das neue Album von M83 scheint es gar nur als Import auf CD zu geben. Zumindest hat Amazon nur die Vinyl normal gelistet, die CD gibt es, auch schon zum Vorbestellen, nur als Import, hauptsächlich aus UK. Auch bei JPC wird die CD nur als „lieferbar in 1 bis 2 Wochen" gelistet. Der Preis liegt bei der CD auch zwischen 17 und 20 Euro. Media Markt hat auch nur die Vinyl im Programm.

Wobei aber das Ende von AFTERLIFE und die letzte Post-Credit-Szene im Grunde darauf hinweisen, dass wir in Zukunft wohl wieder in New York sein werden. Und Winston zukünftig eine größere Rolle spielen wird. Was ich so gehört habe, werden Ray und Winston, also Aykroyd und Hudson, im neuen Film als Mentoren der neuen Geisterjäger fungieren, aber Bill Murray soll wohl ebenfalls wieder dabei sein. Vermutlich aber in einer kleinen Rolle. Was auch Sinn macht, denn Aykroyd hat als Erfinder der Geisterjäger die Fackel für das Franchise in all den Jahren hochgehalten sozusagen und Ernie Hudson hat im Grunde nie Nein gesagt, wenn es um Ghostbusters-Projekte ging, obwohl er es ja am schwersten hatte, akzeptiert zu werden, wenn man so will. Auf dem Poster zum ersten Film taucht er gar nicht auf und meinte in einem kürzlichen Interview auch, dass er sich an den Rand gedrängt fühlte. Aber nicht von seinen Schauspiel-Kollegen, die ihn alle herzlich aufnahmen, sondern vom Studio. Ursprünglich war die Rolle ja für Eddie Murphy geschrieben worden, aber da dieser wegen BEVERLY HILLS COP nicht konnte, wurde die Rolle eingedampft und Winston fast schon eine Randfigur. Und obwohl Winston dann in der Zeichentrickserie eine gleichwertige Figur neben den anderen Geisterjägern war, sah Ernie sich bei GHOSTBUSTERS II dann wieder in der Situation, fast nur eine Randfigur zu sein. Er meinte, es dauerte fast zehn Jahre, bevor er alles, was mit GHOSTBUSTERS zu tun hatte, wirklich geniessen konnte. Und seitdem macht er das ja auch.
