__________________________ LISTEN

We found a number of these masterpiece (unplayed) LPs in a warehouse!
Original deadstock copies of the controversial cult Portuguese soundtrack to the Science Fiction movie “Os Abismos da Meia-Noite”, directed by António de Macedo in 1983.

The movie has never received a video or DVD release, but can be viewed below – however sadly there are no subtitles available. “Os Abismos da Meia-Noite” is a trippy magical 70’s psychedelia vibe, using elements of lush orchestrations, jazz / funk and easy listening instrumentals, alongside sonic electronics and soundscapes, low-fi sci-fi adventure, blending parallel worlds, ancient legends and alchemy.
Director Antonio Macedo was one of a number of Portuguese filmmakers using sci-fi and fantasy as a critique of modern life, thus was always battling against the Portuguese censorship prevalent at the time.
Macedo died in 2017 at the age of 86, with a career as a director spanning over four decades, with his last film ‘O Segredo das Pedras Vivas’ released in 2016.
