“...4..3..2..1…Morte” is a 1967 sci-fi movie directed by Primo Zeglio, based on the adventures of the astronaut Perry Rhodan, a character created by Walter Ernsting. All’epoca di questa colonna sonora non fu pubblicato nulla, neppure un 45 giri. Not a single note was released at the time, not even a 45rpm.
Starting from the original mono master tapes of the recording session, it has been possible to assemble an album that will delight fans of fantastic cinema and lounge music. 15 tracks have been selected, for an excellent sound experience that will take the listener into space-time dimensions with the sound colours of the late sixties. The crystal voice of Edda Dell’Orso, accompanied by the prestigious choir of Alessandro Alessandroni’s Cantori Moderni performs the wild danceable beat track “Seli”, written by Marcello Giombini, introduced in the opening (A1) and closing credits (B7), and reprised in three different instrumental versions (A5, B1, B3). To describe the perils of outer space, Antón García Abril and Marcello Giombini wrote musical themes that flirt with experimental music, thanks to organ effects and Cantori Moderni’s voices (A2, A6, A8, B2, B5), but also to tribal sounds (A4), exotic-espionage atmospheres (A7), chase music (A3), shake (B4) and a military march shading into noir sensations (B5).
