2015-10-28 (News)

Coinciding with "Profondo Rosso" 40th anniversary, Claudio Simonetti’s Goblin celebrates this anniversary with a new version of the famous soundtrack.

Throughout the 5 bonus remixes, this release progressively brings us closer to the stars and their brighter moments of happiness and relief. Starting from the wonderful fairy-tale interpretation of "Never Look Back" by mister Jean-Marc Lederman (ex-The Weathermen mastermind) and the dubby electro rework of "Words" by B-Sights (Dizkodude producer) towards more and more enchanting and shining dancefloor moments through the club oriented remixes by house producer Gavril and electro dance DJ Simon Carter to finally end-up with a more experimental electro-industrial rework by Baterist Sintetic.
