Originally designating low-budgets films shown in American grind-houses, the “B-movie" has established itself as a bona fide film genre, whose success derives from the extraordinary creative ingenuity of its directors. This playlist is a tribute to these films that have made their mark on the history of cinema as have their distinctive soundtracks. Surf-Rock, Cinematic Jazz or Psychedelic Rock, the diversity of genres represented here gives it a retro, almost kitsch dimension, an eclectic repertoire just as suitable for spy movies as for comedies.
