Intrada is an American record company based in Oakland, California, founded by Douglass Fake (1952-2024).
In addition to standard soundtrack releases, Intrada features The Excalibur Collection, a series of world premiere re-recordings of film scores, reconstructed and performed by world-renown orchestras as well as a series of limited-edition historic soundtracks, produced in cooperation with film studios and the American Federation of Musicians.
Fake, a producer, composer, and champion of classic film music restoration for four decades, died after an extended illness on July 13, 2024 in Richmond California.
His nearly 700 producing credits include the first complete restoration of Leonard Bernstein’s On the Waterfront, a massive 6-CD release of Elmer Bernstein conducting his music from The Ten Commandments (1956 film) and the premiere of several Henry Mancini underscores including Breakfast at Tiffany’s (previously only available in abridged pop recordings).
Combined, the Intrada record label and store is the largest independent business dedicated to the music of the movies, television and games.
