The most exploitative movie of the three, I RAGAZZI DEL MASSACRO, came out in the wake of IF… but predates A CLOCKWORK ORANGE. A group of young students rape and kill their teacher in a shocking opening that sizzles out as the rest of the film turns to the standard police procedural. Silvano Spadaccino is the sole composer of the score (Pattacini appears here as conductor), providing one experimental theme and passages of musique concrète involving reversed playback methods (brought in whenever the film flashes back to the shocking opening). The ”Adagio” piece from the score offers a more tuneful solution to the mystery.
While AMARSI MALE was released on a very hard-to find promotional LP in 1969, and the song of BRUCIA, RAGAZZO, BRUCIA was also released as a single, this is the premiere release of the full surviving recordings. Produced by Claudio Fuiano, mastered by Chris Malone, the package includes a lavishly designed 24-page booklet with authoritative liner notes by Gergely Hubai, who discuss the movies, the composers and the scores.
