His Profondo Rosso (1975) is a classic example of exquisite cinematic storytelling, boasting courageous colors, expressionist camera angles and an unforgettable Goblin score forming the ingredients for an intriguing piece of art.
Profondo Nero's title salutes the legendary oeuvre of Italian horror director Dario Argento. Amsterdam based collector Cinema Royale stitches together eleven tracks from 1983 – 1989, celebrating a sound he fittingly describes as 'leftfield Italo'. The music is unmistakably Italo disco but moves away from the familiar classic sound. Cutting across the face of Italo disco's leftfield musicians between the early and late '80s, Profondo Nero champions a multi-faceted sound that nods to the blueprint of Italo disco but tries to dig deeper. Profondo Nero narrates a storyline that goes beyond the borders of Italy's musical legacy.
