I don't think Nardini made any soundtrack. If he did, I really want to know which one!Nino Nardini
Bruno Nicolai
Goblin
Herbie Hancock
all
The Goblin soundtracks are great. I can't imagine others music fitting to the bloody delirium of Argento.
In the same veine, Kristof Komeda did some great insane music for the equaly disturbing Polansky movies (Rosemary's baby, Cul De Sac, Le Locataire..)
Damn, I would like to hear that Violence! soundtrack..
Chi Sei?
Find it pretty overated..
What's the best Umiliani stuff?
I mean.. not the very bossa/female scat oriented music, but the hard psychefunk stuff in the same veine than his work on St Germain Des Pres "Percussions".
Any advice for one of his works on the Omnicron libraries?
Any advice by any italian composers for "bad drama with beat" stuff in the same veine as Citta Violenta, Marquis de Sade or Violence?

you people are basically naming ALL ITALIAN COMPOSERS FROM 70's..........
of course most OSTS were groovy and well done, but while some of them were high profile musicians , I also think that some of them instead were "unpretentious artisans"
I saw Piccioni on interview ,he was basically a ghetto guy, meaning that he was just a "fella" not the kind of BIG MAESTRO one would expect......he was very down and funny.....this makes me think when the french people from "cahier du cinema" referred to Umberto Lenzi with such deep respect for being a great movie maker and they were seeking meanings in all hiscamera movements etc.......he basically spent the whole time of the interview laughing, amused by the fact that these young historician were searching meanings were it wasn't.......
Of course Morricone, on a strictly musical level, he is one of the greatest and this is out of question.....
but I must admit that on a personal level he is considered an asshole for various reasons in the music biz.....I still think he earned too much props compared to his peers......he was good at marketing himself.....and now while you don't find much stuff from the others, all his ost are considered very $$$$ and they reissued near all his shit......
Geniuses are often assholes!
I heard about the reputation of Morricone. But music wise, it's a fact: his music is just incredible and you can't take it out of your head. Not all of them but all the well known stuff. You can have the best marketing people around you, it means nothing, you have average music and unforgetable music. There's a lot of still-underground people who make or made good music, but those on the top are not here by accident or luck!

Yeah, he did. He never got to see the finished film in the theatre. I'm pretty sure he died like weeks after finishing the scoring. My GOAT for a single film.
some cool stories in here:
"Few movie soundtrack composers are perennially contemporary household names, but New York-born Jewish musician Bernard Herrmann, whose June 29 centenary is being celebrated with a year of CD releases and live concerts from Minnesota to Bristol, England, is a noteworthy exception."

Umiliani , Ciprianni I ride for Jonny Greenwood , Max Richter ,Ligeti ,Walter ( Wendy ) Carlos and Philip Glass.
Morricone probably for sheer volume and general quality.

Appreciate this guy batches!
-RD Burman scored more soundtracks and did it in a more diverse fashion than anyone EVAR! Cmon, dudes got 808 tunes, rapping, him scatting and gargling on a song, whip crack as percussion, more experimental and genius than headz will ever know!
