Fabio Frizzi

Fabio Frizzi is an Italian musician and composer.
He is the older brother of the late television presenter Fabrizio Frizzi.
Frizzi is best known for his eerie scores for European horror movies. A frequent collaborator with Italian horror icon Lucio Fulci from the '70s into the '90s on films such as Contraband, The Beyond, and A Cat in the Brain, his music often used analog synthesizers, with their fuzzy sound adding a layer of creepiness to his downbeat melodies. Still incorporating elements of electronic, classical, and rock music into his scores with help from vintage instruments, Frizzi went on to compose music for projects including TV's Il Capitano (2005), House of Forbidden Secrets (2013), and Puppet Master: The Littlest Reich (2018).
Fabio Frizzi was born in Bologna, Emilia-Romagna, Italy on July 2, 1951. As a teenager, he was passionate about both movies and music, and he formed a trio with fellow musicians Franco Bixio and Vince Tempera to write and perform music for movies and TV. In 1968, Frizzi and his partners scored a spaghetti Western, Ed ora... raccomanda l'anima a Dio! (aka And Now, Make Your Peace with God), and by the mid-'70s he was scoring several pictures a year. In 1975, Frizzi was hired to write music for I quattro dell'apocalisse (aka Four of the Apocalypse), a Western directed by journeyman director Lucio Fulci. Four years later, when Fulci was asked to direct a horror film inspired by George A. Romero's Dawn of the Dead, he brought Frizzi in to score the picture.
The movie, Zombie (aka Zombi 2), was an international success, and as Fulci's name became synonymous with gory Italian horror, Frizzi developed an underground following.
