Four Flies was founded in 2015 as a record label aiming to rescue from oblivion vintage Italian soundtracks and library music, especially obscure or underrated works that were never circulated outside the Italian film, radio and television industry of the 60s, 70s and 80s. Like film-and-music archaeologists, the people at Four Flies have rediscovered, re

stored, and made available to listeners all over the globe lesser-known or previously unreleased music by the likes of Piero Umiliani, Alessandro Alessandroni, Giuliano Sorgini and Silvano D’Auria, contributing significant additions to their discographies. More recently, the label has been taking the reissue and vintage niche beyond its confines to build a bridge between yesterday and today, between heritage composers and contemporary artists.

Originally released in 1973, FANTASY by Gianfranco Reverberi is now available in digital format for the first time ever. Listen here 👉 found.ee/fantasy-4

Under the pseudonym Sharon “Mhati” Chatam, Reverberi crafted a treasure trove of cinematic easy listening, vibrant funk, and psychedelic sounds.

🎹 One of the most evocative tracks, “Fire Shadows In The Sunset,” features an obscure piano, dynamic congas, and eerie vocals that evoke the erotic tones of Reverberi’s soundtracks for Renato Polselli’s films.

To top it all off, we’ve included a special surprise: a synth reinterpretation of “Ultimo Tango A Parigi”—💥 a piece not included on the original LP, but one we’re sure you’ll love!

A true product of its era, the album masterfully blends the adventurous spirit of prog rock and psychedelia with the soothing charm of easy listening.

🎶 NEW DIGITAL RELEASE 🎶

Musical Journey by Gianni Fallabrino is out today on all digital platforms. Listen here 👉 found.ee/musicaljourney

Originally recorded in 1974, this instrumental jazz-funk album captures the cinematic essence of 1970s crime films. 🎥 With eight tracks driven by a powerful rhythm section and bold brass, the music comes alive through lively and dynamic orchestral arrangements.

🎵 From the pulsating “Night Shift” to haunting “Enigma,” Musical Journey captures the gritty, urban feel of detective and gangster flicks. With tracks ranging from suspenseful (“Eye for an Eye”) to playful (“Discovery”), and progressive (“Rhythmical Roundabout”), the album showcases Gianni Fallabrino’s dynamic and cinematic jazz-funk style.

🎬 RELEASE DAY 🎬

We are beyond thrilled to announce the first-ever release of the complete soundtrack to RIVELAZIONI DI UNO PSICHIATRA SUL MONDO PERVERSO DEL SESSO (Revelations of a Psychiatrist on the World of Sexual Perversion) by Gianfranco Reverberi. Available now on gatefold double vinyl LP and digital formats. Buy or stream here 👉 found.ee/RivelazioniDiUnoPsichiatra

Maestro Reverberi composed this groundbreaking score in 1973 for Renato Polselli’s controversial film. 🎶 While the movie—a chaotic blend of voyeurism and sexual exploration—sparked intense debate, Reverberi’s music stands apart as a true masterpiece.

For years, the score remained shrouded in mystery. In the ‘70s, a cryptic 45 rpm single under the alias Sharon Chatam e la sua Orchestra revealed a hidden gem: “Psicolimite,” the unforgettable Rivelazioni theme. Once its true origins came to light, it became a highly sought-after collector’s treasure.

💥 After an exhaustive search, we’ve recovered the original 16-track tapes, allowing us to present this astonishing soundtrack in its entirety for the very first time. Reverberi’s work is a thrilling mix of creative experimentation, featuring relentless basslines, pounding drums, futuristic synths, psychedelic flutes, jazzy saxophones, vibraphones, and wild percussion—a truly boundary-pushing tour de force.

Expertly mixed and remastered by Fabrizio De Carolis at Reference Mastering, the gatefold double LP is complemented by stunning original artwork from the talented Eric Adrian Lee.

🎵 Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of Italian music history!

📍 Digital release includes 8 bonus tracks.

🎶 NEW DIGITAL RELEASE 🎶

🇬🇧
Two years after its debut on the LP Antonico, Tonico Settanta’s FOR’ FOR’ returns in a fresh live version featuring soul-funk collective Banda Maje. Listen here 👉 found.ee/forforlive

An extended take on the original, this version brims with vibrant energy, adding an improvisational element to the song’s mixture of soul, funk, rap and Mediterranea vibes. 🌊

Co-written with Banda Maje’s leader Peppe Maiellano, FOR’ FOR’ is more than just a song. It’s a heartfelt prayer reflecting Tonico 70’s journey through life’s trials and losses; a celebration of resilience, joy, and the light we can find even in the darkest moments.

The live session was beautifully recorded at the Villa Comunale in Vietri sul Mare—a stunning location deeply connected to Tonico and Banda Maje’s artistic identity.

🇮🇹
Due anni dopo il debutto su Antonico, il primo album di Tonico 70 con Four Flies Records, For’ For’ torna in una nuova versione live eseguita insieme a Banda Maje. Ascolta qui 👉 found.ee/forforlive

Scritta a quattro mani con Peppe Maiellano, leader del collettivo “Saliforniano,” la traccia arricchisce le sonorità soul, funk, rap dell’originale con una serie di fantastiche improvvisazioni.

For’ For’ è molto più di una canzone: è una preghiera personale in cui Tonico 70 riflette sul suo viaggio tra perdite e difficoltà che lo hanno costretto a crescere prima del tempo. Un “lato oscuro” trasformato in luce grazie alla musica, celebrando gioia, resilienza e la forza di andare avanti.

La live session è stata registrata nella splendida Villa Comunale di Vietri sul Mare, un luogo che incarna l’identità artistica di Tonico e Banda Maje.

🎙️ With singer-songwriter Tilde, the duo reimagines Umiliani’s “Nel Villaggio” (side 😎 from his 1975 album Continente Nero. Layering lush synths and a modern beat over its hypnotic marimba melody, they craft “As If It Matters” (side A), a dreamy track that bridges past and present.
