Sean Wolcott & Craig Curran "il Mietitore cavalca verso ovest" LP
Limited to only 200 copies
From composers and producers Sean Wolcott and Craig Curran comes a new library record, reaching the heights of the best the genre has to offer. For this first release, “il Mietitore cavalca verso ovest” (aka “The Reaper Rides West ) is a soundtrack to an imaginary Spaghetti Western film. In the same way, the genre highlights subvert tropes, twisting them into new shapes, and so does this album with its icon themes and authentic sound recorded just as old soundtracks were done on analog equipment and instruments at Soundview Analog Recorders. Shouts, bull whips, timpani, twangy guitars, fuzz, horns, choir, and more make this a remarkably worthy addition to the pantheon of the western soundtrack, where the film, seen or unseen, is conjured so vividly in the listener’s imagination.
