2 Headed Deer Records just introduced a new line of releases inspired by the European library music golden age. The first volume, Crime, delves into the world of Italian Polizieschi and Spaghetti Crime Film soundtracks, capturing the essence of this era with its diverse musical palette. Larry Manteca, a talented Italian band, has crafted a collection of tracks that blend West Coast jazz, inner-city funk, psychedelic, and synth-infused sounds. This compilation is a must-listen for fans of legendary composers like Stelvio Cipriani, the De Angelis brothers, Fidenco, Piccioni, Umiliani, and Bruno Nicolai. Another delicious record curated by the Cantabrian label - available on vinyl.

Crime is the perfect introduction to 2 Headed Deer Records' Library Music Series. Stay tuned for the second volume that also dropped today. Oceanography, produced by Chris Stüllenberg (under the moniker of The New Library Sound), draws inspiration from Jacques Cousteau, The Adventures of Tintin, and Wes Anderson's "Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou and features vast usage of analogue modular synthesis and combines it with instrumentation like keys, mallets, chimes, different percussions and sampling. Also available on vinyl.
