It is with great pleasure that Vadim revisits Italian territory, at the heart of legendary Roman label CAM’s archives, to dig up one of its best buried treasures, the dazzling and intoxicating original soundtrack composed by Stefano Liberati for the film Negli Abissi, the obscur mondo aquatic movie by Bruno Vailati, released in 1977, riding on the success of Dents de la Mer.
Though the film may be long forgotten by more serious film fans, its anthological score has continued to obsess collectors of rare and impossible to find Italian soundtracks, a source of deep emotions and intense pleasures. For the frustrated population desperate to get their hands on the original CAM pressing, with this identical reissue, Vadim allows them the satisfaction of finally diving head first into a pulsating, endlessly moving jazz funk abyss. Stefano Liberati and his generous orchestration of strings, brass, keys and varied percussion sweeps us away with his compositions on blue-tinged cinematic waves, before we lose ourselves in a backwater of sublime groove, steeped in bass, guitar and first class beats. Totally addictive, this record rises to the challenge of marrying funk, swing and jazz with the melancholy of a Riz Ortolani in the Cannibal Holocaust era. Succumb to the heady depths of the wide screen, in the original Italian.
