Four Flies

Four Flies is a Rome-based record label and music publisher specializing in Italian golden age soundtracks. The label is committed to digging up underrated scores and sounds – often ones that were never circulated outside the Italian film, radio or TV industry – and to unearthing master tapes tucked away and long forgotten in attics or basements. Like archaeologists of Italian library music, the Four Flies team go to great lengths to rescue from oblivion previously unreleased or lesser-known pieces by great film composers, making them available to listeners everywhere.

Giuliano Sorgini is an Italian composer and keyboardist known for his contributions to the music industry. With a career spanning several decades, Sorgini has established himself as a prominent figure in the world of music.
His unique style and innovative approach have made him a sought-after artist in the industry. Drawing inspiration from various genres, Sorgini's compositions captivate listeners with their rich melodies and intricate arrangements.
Sorgini's work has often been compared to other renowned artists such as Nora Orlandi, Roberto Pregadio, and Alessandro Alessandroni. His collaborations with these talented performers have resulted in unforgettable musical masterpieces that continue to resonate with audiences worldwide.

The original work portrays a fictional and mysterious continent, providing a soundtrack tinged with dark moods and cosmic shades. Africa Oscura was entirely recorded by the Giuliano Sorgini, who played all instruments in his studio in Rome. This resulted in a formal spareness, a minimalism that gives it a modern quality, something which makes it stand the test of time, or at least resonate with contemporary taste.

Since its release, Africa Oscura has become a classic – a pivotal release not only within Sorgini's discography, but also one that made his name more known and accessible to a new generation of music professionals, DJs and fans of electronic music. Four Flies have thus decided to celebrate its modernity with a double 12" featuring 7 reworks by six of Italy's most visionary DJs/producers: Jolly Mare, L.U.C.A. (aka Francisco), pAd, Painé, and Quiroga &amp; Dario Bass. The original tracks have been reworked with different approaches, sometimes into full reinterpretations, and with demanding dance floors in mind. The result is a stunning collection of electronic, cosmic, downtempo and Balearic reworks that preserve the spirit of the original versions while projecting them into the future.
