LUCIO FULCI’S HORROR & THRILLER

Posted on 2015-07-06

Creator of some of the most revered films in Italian horror history, not only did Lucio Fulci have an eye for dreamlike visuals, he had an ear for choosing amazing composers, managing to get some of their best work from them.

This compilation features Fulci mainstay Fabio Frizzi – presented here with selections from The Beyond and Manhattan Baby, both of which rank as some of his finest work (and certainly his funkiest ); Oscar winner Ennio Morricone, contributing four selections from his sublime and psychedelic score to Lizard In A Woman’s Skin, an utterly spellbinding listen that will send shivers down your spine; Walter Rizzati, presenting two cuts from The House By The Cemetery which has an incredible gothic feel of forboding. And who knew that the soundtrack to one of Fulci’s nastiest films – The New York Ripper composed by Franco De Masi.

The album art is by Randy Ortiz, and is pressed on 180 Gram Red & Yellow Vinyl, limited on 1,000 copies (also available on Black Vinyl).

BEN FROST – THE NEW POLLUTION

Posted on 2015-07-06

Australian artist Ben Frost is known for his kaleidoscopic Pop Art, mash-up paintings that take inspiration from areas as diverse as graffiti, collage, photo-realism and sign-writing. By subverting mainstream iconography from the worlds of advertising, entertainment and politics, he creates a visual framework that is bold, confronting and often controversial.

In ‘The New Pollution’ Frost makes us question how the elements of popular culture and advertising influence our everyday lives. Our urban environment is ‘polluted’ with the banal detritus of our hyper-consumption in the form of logos, billboards, colourful packaging and animated characters that aggressively compete to sell us endless sales pitches, disposable solutions and discount lifestyles. In his work Frost creates a reactionary dialogue against this pervasive and dictatorial experience, by appropriating and re-contextualising the very icons and totems that advertising feeds to us.

The title of this exhibition ‘The New Pollution’ reflects the unwanted and pervasive nature of advertising that infiltrates our visual and conceptual environment. It also describes the artist’s exploration of painting onto found objects and urban refuse – such as pharmaceutical packaging, candy and cereal boxes as well as fashion bags, board games, vintage stamps and ammunition packages.

Exhibition runs through to August 2nd, 2015
