Axe-1977 Soundtrack (UPDATE!)
bored to tears last night I rewatched one of my favorite fringe drive-in 70s flicks, Frederick R. Friedel’s “Axe”.
known in some circles as a(n) (even lower) budget ‘last house on the left’, but i think it eschews more conventions than that masterpiece of filth. it is full of many open-ended strands that leave you wondering about the characters and incidents, bordering on the surreal. plus it has a nifty synth-blurt n’ strings/boho bongo soundtrack by John Willhelm & George Newman Shaw that I can assume nobody ever thought of releasing, so I ripped the audio and edited the bits of music with some dialog into an mp3 soundtrack.
enjoy!

p.s. this looks like it will be a new hobby of mine so stay tuned for more unreleased incidental musics from niche-worthy trash cinema

Mark Of The Witch (1970) Soundtrack – Texas Trash
Hey! As per request from a friend of mine I’ve mined the internet vaults of trash cinema and created an audio soundtrack to accompany the 1970 witcheriffic “Mark Of The Witch”. This flick is strictly for trash lovers. Not a whole lot of gore/excitement/good acting/ um…/plot/special effects. But for some reason I like it for it’s lack of all these things. It still reeks of washed out 70s creepiness that I can’t get enough of. I’m thinking that in 1970, the concept of a witch could still scare the shit out of some people.
The soundtrack by a dubiously named Whitey Thomas, is mostly Moog bloop-n-swoosh that jumps up sometimes during random incidences, but overall sets a good classic B-movie underrated vibe that has mostly gone into hiding from schlock these days. As it should, considering the equally moribund and over-accelerating state of culture and humanity these days. BACK TO THE SOUNDTRACK!!
Since there isn’t a lot of isolated music in this film(mostly underneath witchish dialogue), I decided to spice things up and tipped the axis a little on the audio. You’ll see what I mean when you listen, but I think it makes it all the more enjoyable! In addition to the analog synth netting, there is an original song that is quite nice, with lyrics by the lead actress, Anitra Walsh and sung by another unknown, Trella Hart. There is also a short little folk-rock pop tune that I had no luck in tracking down(google) the authors of. to be redundant: ENJOY!
