SPANISH CINEMATIC GROOVES & FUNKY SOUNDTRACKS, 1971- 1976'' ''
In the late sixties and early to mid seventies, while Spain was still under Franco's last years of dictatorship, Spanish cinema entered two important periods known as '' '' Landismo'' '' (named after actor Alfredo Landa) and '' '' Destape'' '' (The Strip Period). Lots of bizarre, soft- erotic/ comedy and exploitation films were shooted, most of them featuring groovy and delirious soundtracks.
Serious and well- respected musicians like Antón García Abril, Adolfo Waitzman and Gregorio Gª Segura incorporated the latest musical trends which came from other European countries like Italy and France to their work. This was a frenetic period, in which these composers adopted the hip and modern sounds of the time to their compositions for soundtracks, mixing them with their Spanish roots, resulting in an avalanche of incredible soundtracks for exploitation films.
Virtually every Spanish comedy/ exploitation/ action film released during 1968 and 1974 included the typical scene of '' '' young people dancing to groovy music at the club full of weird hippies'' '' , especially if the directors were people like Pedro Lazaga and Mariano Ozores and the cast featured actors like Alfredo Landa or Jose Luis López Vázquez.
Sadly, the majority of these soundtracks are lost forever, as they were never released on vinyl and the audio master tapes usually were erased or ended up in the trashcan.
On '' '' Psicotrónica!'' '' you'll find tracks taken from real soundtracks along others which sound 100% cinematic but were never included in any film. All of them taken from unknown records released in Spain between 1968 and 1978, including many rare library private recordings.
A real fest of Spanish styled blaxploitation & library grooves, psychedelic funk full of flute, fuzz and wah- wah guitars, Hammond grooves, sexploitation sounds, bossa- scat nuggets, thriller- spy grooves....
Released at the same time, the two Psicotrónica volumes feature a different musical theme on each side and are housed in cool full colour picture sleeves. Carefully remastered sound plus insert with detailed liner notes in English / Spanish.
