These are NOT Original Soundtracks, but New Arrangments.
8 pages booklet in English and Italian.
Tommaso Colliva, with his enthusiasm, succeeds in involving his friend Massimo Martellotta, who has always been fond of film music too. In this way, Calibro 35 begins to take shape with the latest addition of eclectic Enrico Gabrielli, Luca Cavina, who looks after the most violent tracks and Fabio Rondanini, thanks to who the band can easily move along funk, rock and improvisation. It turns out an original project having its strengths in the very successful attempt of actualizing some of the best tracks, such as the unpublished shake of 'Milano Calibro 9' and the opening credits of 'La mala ordina', keeping alive its original spirit, that kind of spirit which has often been lost because they usually prefer to use existing music for films, despite what happened in the '70's when the composer started to write his tracks after watching the filming or even before, after reading the screenplay and sometimes getting to the point to influence the director. With this precise attitude Calibro 35 ventures into two original musical pieces such as 'Notte in Bovisa' and 'La polizia s'incazza', restoring that peculiar mark of the Italian detective films, which differentiates them from the American ones, even if they have often been influenced by them. Calibro 35 is a delicious album for all the lovers of this genre (listening to it all in one go can bring you to review all the best films or you can imagine a new film with new scenes never seen before) but not only this: it is an album talking to a wider audience, provided that you like that kind of music played in an intense and passionate way.
