The Big Gundown OST, Robocop OST & Twin Peaks Update! Here's what we have coming up this week! New releases for all divisions go on sale Wednesdays (unless otherwise noted) at a random time on our site . Be sure to follow us on Twitter for updates & sale announcements! MONDO The Big Gundown - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack by Ennio Morricone 2XLP. Artwork by Geof Darrow / Color Art by Dave Stewart. Featuring an all new interview with the composer. Cut at 45RPM for best sound quality. Pressed on 180 Gram Black Vinyl & 180 Gram Brown Vinyl with Gold Splatter (limited to 700 copies). On sale Wednesday (8/5). $35 We’re very proud to bring you Oscar winner Ennio Morricone’s THE BIG GUNDOWN on vinyl. The film, released in 1966, is one of the best Spaghetti Western’s of that era, starring a scenery-chewing Lee Van Cleef & directed with panache by Sergio Sollima.



Last Month Quentin Tarantino announced that Ennio Morricone was going to be scoring the THE HATEFUL EIGHT, and you need look no further than this record to discover why. Morricone, along with his trusty conductor Bruno Nicolai and an eight piece choir led by Alessandroni, deliver a truly masterful score. It’s rousing, exciting, speaker-shattering stuff, shown off on tracks such as "Run Man Run" & "Titoli Di Testa." The orchestra almost jumps off the recording, but then features beautiful choral pieces such as "Coro Dei Mormoni," and is filled out by slower more mournful cuts like "Titoli De Coda."



Undoubtedly one of the finest Spaghetti scores recorded, we are thrilled to present you with this brand new remaster with 25 tracks split across 2 heavyweight 45rpm records. The icing on the cake for this release has to be the insert that features an interview with Morricone, conducted especially for us. Also, the fact that the whole package comes wrapped in a beautiful gatefold sleeve by the legendary Geof Darrow.



I own three versions of THE BIG GUNDOWN on vinyl and hand on heart (as a fan first), I can safely say none sound as good as this edition. You can listen to a few tracks off the record here

KUEDO - Assertion Of A Surrounding Presence (Knives Recordings).

Boomkat Records called this 'Sci-fi Electronica' and well, who I am I to argue? It's an engrossing and engaging listen - the kind of thing you really want the makers of say...Blade Runner 2 to hear and go "Oh yeah, that's what we're after." It's full of atmosphere and layers & layers of synths. This is exactly the kind of electronic music I love to listen to late at night, when no one else is around. You can find out more & purchase the album here.



MO'S PICK OF THE WEEK

MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE - Music From The Motion Picture Score by Danny Elfman

One of my all time favorite Danny Elfman soundtracks is for Brian DePalma's MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE (not to be confused by the strange 1996 Mixtape "Music Inspired by the film MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE," which featured songs by Pulp, Massive Attack and members of U2). Elfman made a bit of a gothic name for himself in the 80s & 90s collaborating so closely with Sam Raimi, Peter Jackson and Tim Burton, that it is hard to remember he had such a diverse output, even at that time. In preparing for the newest film in the nearly 20 year old Mission: Impossible franchise "ROGUE NATION," I revisited all 4 of the past films, and as much as I love Giacchino's work on M:I3 and Ghost Protocol (see last week's pick) nothing in the series compares to Elfman's take on the world of Ethan Hunt. I highly recommend revisiting the film (or watching it for the first time), if even just for the score - in particular the heist at Langley, or the Train set-piece near the end of the film.
