What’s Up Morons – A film by Charlotte Zang (Music by Andrew Fly)

Hello Everyone!

In August 2020 I had the pleasure to work with the talented director Charlotte Zang, I made the music for the short movie “What’s Up Morons” edited by Fabrizio Famà.
The short film has a very nice script, full of fun and comical mood that includes all the characteristics of a Drama Comedy.
The short film will be presented at different film festivals and so we are very excited for that.
The music has different styles such as: Surfy, Punk and Pulp.

I am so sure that you will like it!

Cinematic Alpha – The new frontier of audio samples by Andrew Fly

Cinematic Alpha Vocals Edition

I am proud to share my new “lockdown” project Cinematic Alpha, the new concept of “lite samples”.
The first product that I dedicated to the Vocals and Phrases, I asked the amazing performance by Laura Kleinas and Denise Guerrera alias AMNE. Two very talented singers who made possible this digital dream.
I can’t forget Fabrizio Famà for the Bonus samples, he made a great job recording his electric guitar!
But You already know that it’s very important to test a prototype, so I asked the precious opinions of different artists such as: Tim Truman (Miami Vice, Melrose Place, Charmed etc.), Chris Hüelsbeck (Turrican, The Giana Sisters, etc.), Iván Martínez Lacámara (Money Heist, Vis a Vis, El embarcadero), Fabian Del Priore, Fabio Tedde alias The Pianist Without Borders, Domenico Ciaffone (Sterling, Time & space etc.), Renato Avallone, Sebastian Lis, Dave Meredith.
I am very grateful with all them, they are talented and good people, they helped me a lot when I used to develop the library until the publishing process.

The Demo by Chris Hüelsbeck
Chris has composed an amazing demo for Cinematic Alpha, wow my favorite composer who has created the music for the Commodore games, when I was 7 years old I played listening his amazing music.
I have to be honest with you, I was moved when he sent me the demo, my wife was under shock to see me with big tears of happiness. Listen the demo by Chris Hüelsbeck

Cinematic alpha is 1.7 Gb only on hard disk, very lite and useful, that’s why I want to give the opportunity to customers to save space and perform very well.

Antigone wins Best Score at New York International Film Awards

ANTIGONE - WINNER

Antigone is the winner, the movie written and directed by Michael Justin Lee and scored by the composer Flavio Garozzo alias Andrew Fly.

This movie is a Film Noir reinterpretation of the ancient tragedy by Sophocles written in approximately 441 BC. The backstory, revealed by inference, is that Antigone’s brother, an officer in the United States Marines who was killed in combat and given an honorable military burial in Arlington National Cemetery, was court martialed posthumously on a tenuous charge of treason. The cruelly ambitious United States Secretary of Defense, eager for any opportunity to burnish her reputation, has ordered his body’s disinterment and eviction from Arlington. Antigone, desperate but convinced of her older brother’s innocence and having exhausted all legal avenues of redress, decides on her only remaining recourse for justice. Written by Michael Justin Lee

Italessence – Andrew Fly, The Italian Essence

Hello Everyone,

I’ve created this new song reaching a new style inspiring to 1960s , 1970s and 1980s Italian vintage and sexy mood. Why? I love to remember that many people appreciate  the old Italian movies that made the history of Cinema.

The “Essence” of Italy is not just Pizza, Pasta and Spaghetti, but Passion and Love,

La BELLA VITA that many people want to live and they can’t because it’s difficult to ignore the troubles of life.

ITALESSENCE is available starting August 11th 2019 on Spotify, iTunes, Shazam!

SEUL: The new song by Andrew Fly feat. Laura Kleinas

SEUL

Original Cover Picture of SEUL

Seul is a song composed by Andrew Fly featured by Laura Kleinas which describes the desire of human being to apply an important ¨Life changing” leaving stereotypes and the modern prison of routine and mediocrity.

The song has officially two versions: (SEUL and SEUL DARK MIX)

The automatic video provided by CDBaby has reached more than 20K of views on Youtube and it’s available online and Vinyl: Spotify, Amazon, iTunes, Shazam, ClaroMusica etc.

THIS WORK WAS CREATED ONLINE

LAURA KLEINAS

Many times I used to produce music using a robot voice, but this time I’ve chosen the amazing skills of the French singer and voice over Laura Kleinas who has incredible voice.

I’ve discovered that Laura has participated to the Music Reality Show named “Deutschland sucht den Superstar” 2013 Edition, an important German Music Format of the Television RTL, produced by Grundy Light Entertainment GmbH.

But in my little opinion I was totally interested to her voice and not about her important experiences on the broadcasting world, indeed when I’ve gotten the tracks of her voice I was crying of happiness.

I was moved for her performance, so I’ve continued the Mix and mastering  and I felt cold for each part of the song (never I felt cold for a song for all the full during time).

I suggest Laura as singer for her fast working and professionalism which has generated colors in my song SEUL.

 

ALESSANDRO TEMPESTA

– Andrew- Alessandro I need one of your photos to publish the album, I love this one! (The actual photo of the album)

– Alessandro- Ok Andrew! Remember that the girl is Desirè Balena, an amazing and important dancer.

– Andrew- Ok I will write about her.
