Product description

Immerse yourself in the enigmatic and hauntingly beautiful world of Wojciech Kilar's "The Ninth Gate," a soundtrack album that transcends the boundaries of conventional music. Released on January 1, 1999, under Silva Screen Records, this collection of instrumental pieces is a testament to Kilar's mastery of evoking mood and atmosphere. Spanning just over 54 minutes, the album is a journey through a labyrinth of suspense, intrigue, and dark allure, perfectly complementing the eerie narrative of the film it accompanies.

Kilar, a Polish composer renowned for his evocative and dramatic scores, weaves a tapestry of sounds that range from delicate and ethereal to intense and foreboding. The album opens with "Vocalise," a piece that sets the tone with its haunting melody, and continues with tracks like "Corso's Apartment / Bernie Is Dead" and "Blood On The Face," which delve into the darker, more sinister aspects of the story. Each track is a carefully crafted piece that contributes to the overall narrative, making "The Ninth Gate" not just a soundtrack, but a standalone musical experience.

From the seductive "Liana's Seduction" to the intense "Balkan Burns," Kilar's compositions are a blend of orchestral and electronic elements, creating a rich and textured soundscape. The album's standout track, "The Ninth Gate," encapsulates the essence of the entire collection with its powerful and dramatic composition. Whether you're a fan of film scores, classical music, or simply appreciate well-crafted instrumental pieces, "The Ninth Gate" by Wojciech Kilar is an album that will captivate and enthrall.

This LP is pressed on Transparent vinyl.

What an amazingly massive album! The music is both hauntingly beautiful and creepy as fuck at the same time. If there were a super deluxe version of this with embossed (p)leather and gold decor, I'd buy it in a sec. Wojciech Kilar is killer!- Oh, and that's on black wax naturally. Coloured isn't deluxe in my ...ears!

Sounds fantastic! I'd say a bit fuller/wider than the original compact disc. When cleaning, maybe give Side I/Band 1 some extra attention.

The black one was released simultaneously with the „flame“ edition and also was announced by the label in the same newsletter, so why 2nd press? Whatever, the sound is significant better than the „popcorn festival“ of the flame edition. Such an amazing soundtrack, dark and satanic, on black vinyl.I’m happy. Recommend!

Wow, so good to see (hear) that there are still flawlessly good new soundtrack pressings coming out. Seems like coloured vinyl, surface noise and warps are the new thing (Deathwaltz, Mondo). But Silva Screen really did a great job! Eye for detail in the artwork, and it sounds so well mastered for vinyl. Velvet for the ears.
