Ennio Morricone - Morricone Segreto (2020/2021) [Official Digital Download 24/96]

The career of the influential Italian composer Ennio Morricone is celebrated by a new collection, Morricone Segreto, set for release through Decca Records on November 6. This brand new collection, featuring 7 previously unreleased tracks, explores what is possibly Morricone’s richest creative period, between the end of the 1960s to the early 80s, demonstrating Morricone’s long lasting influence for generations of musicians and film directors to this day.

Morricone Segreto is described as “an acid-tinged sonic journey through mysterious voices, fuzz guitars, airy strings, eerie synths and modern grooves from the Academy-a composer who was always ahead of the trend, dictating style in his own way.”

The world-renowned Italian composer sadly passed away at the age of 91 earlier this year. During an extraordinary career which spanned more than six decades, he created over 600 original compositions. He was, without a doubt, the most important Italian artist of the last 60 years and possibly the most well-known film music composer of the 20th century.

Yet, behind the mainstream Morricone hugely celebrated by critics and acclaimed by his audience, there is a hidden Morricone, a Morricone Segreto: an eccentric, underground genius who used his refined education, to implant cultured materials in a daily, popular context. This side of the Maestro that is mostly unknown to the broader audience, but deeply appreciated and influential for so many artists and connoisseurs.

That’s the Morricone from apparently “minor” movies, which gave birth to his most remarkable sheet music, as the creative freedom provided by the bis cinema system made his work a long lasting influence for the generations of musicians that came after him, especially in the rock, pop and dance world; fascinated by his Morricone Segreto: the hidden, dark-tinged and psychedelic side of the maestro with ability to merge vanguard pulses and pop culture, atonal mazes and compelling melodies, psycho flavors, and innovative arrangements, in a unique and unrepeatable short circuit between high and low, dark and light. The results were so modern for his time that they sound incredibly current still to this day.
