Daniele Patucchi - Il Sesso Della Strega [Soundtrack, Limited Edition] (1973/2017)

The late Daniele Patucchi composed a score that reminds us of the macabre side of the story with its series of dark psychedelic moods which border between sacred and profane. The recurring love theme with pop sounds and Nora Orlandi's voice break up this gloomy dimension which the characters move through as puppets moved by wires manipulated by an evil presence. Originally an EP single was prepared with the love theme (Tr.14 here), but was then deleted. The short version (Opening credits, here Tr.1) was later included in an LP soundtrack addition by C.A.M. dedicated to Maestro Patucchi and entitled "Brani ritmici a sottofondo" ("Rhythmic Background Songs") (CML 029). For our CD lasting 54:05 minutes we used the stereo master tapes from the recording session. This is another disk which can be added to the discography of a great talent who passed away too soon.
