Digitmovies present the first CD issue of Stelvio Cipriani's complete original soundtrack for the 1984 film Rage Fuoco Incrociato ("A Man Called Rage"), aka Fuego Cruzado. In 1984 Cinevox Records released this orchestral/electronic score on LP with only twelve tracks. In addition to the stereo master tape assembled for the original album, Digitmovies discovered almost 13 minutes of previously unreleased material in mono that bringing the CD's total time over 45 minutes. For the composer, this soundtrack marks a very important moment in the lives of cinema and soundtracks fans: an unforgettable first encounter with maestro Cipriani which took place in the summer of 1984 (thanks to composer and friend Marco Werba) just as he was recording and mixing music for this film. Stelvio Cipriani composed a score where the orchestra performs an epic main theme with a holy atmosphere and frequent pop rhythms which accompany Rage's heroic endeavors through a place where fiendish traps and deadly dangers are always lurking. The author alternates solemn pieces with suspenseful pieces, and pieces of pure action typical of the '80s. One remarkable finding was the long version of "Esplorazione Della Base" ("Exploration Of The Base") with well over seven-and-a-half minutes two-and-a-half minutes on the LP take. This CD will be added to the discography of the legendary Stelvio Cipriani (which has expanded in recent years thanks to fantastic discoveries and rediscoveries in various archives), one of the most prolific composers of film music from the '60s to today.
