PAURA: A Collection of Italian Horror Sounds from the CAM Sugar Archives

Description

‘PAURA’ explores the horror repertoire from the precious CAM Sugar archives. Taking us on a hypnotic journey into the labyrinths of fear, through the different variations that Italian horror took on from the esoteric and supernatural to the slasher films of the early 1970s; to reinterpretations of Romantic literature and gothic fiction to the splatter films of the ’80s; and from witchcraft to metropolitan horror. This is not a real ‘best of’ but an eclectic menu full of mysterious voices, childlike lullabies, sweet melodies, obsessive music boxes, obstinate harpsichords, crazy distortions and threatening synthesizers, conceived as a succession of sequences, as if a film edit. The collection includes some of the most creative music ever written and strives to do justice not only to some of the best known composers, but also to many great unsung composers of this genre.
