DESCRIPTION
Musique Pour La Danse present Coil's unreleased soundtrack for the VHS only, pre-internet, sexual education documentary entitled The Gay Man's Guide To Safer Sex released in 1992. Members for this project were John Balance, Peter "Sleazy" Christopherson, and Danny Hyde. The OST, to quote John Balance's interview for Compulsion Online, "is [a] slightly new age-y, progressive house type thing". Another way to approach it is as a delightful collection of Balearic beats, smoking jazz not far removed from Badalamenti's work with David Lynch, somewhat of an ambient house album for your home listening and early morning sunrise dances, Coil style. Taken from the original masters provided by Danny Hyde, The Gay Man's Guide To Safer Sex features a new sexy edit of the main theme. Bonus tracks "Nasa-Arab" and "Omlagus Garfungiloops" are taken from the 1992 CD-only release Stolen And Contaminated Songs, both being original versions of the radically reworked (for the OST) "Nasa-Arab 2" and "Exploding Frogs" in order to balance the whole album and extend the listening pleasure.

The three stars isn’t for the music. It’s for the minimum effort and apparent cash grab with these 2017-2019 Coil releases. While it’s great to see reissues and archival material surfacing, Peter and Jhon would have never let this sub-quality packaging into the world if they were still alive.This release has their unreleased commercial work “Theme From the Gay Man’s Guide to Safer Sex” mixed in with a couple tracks from “Stolen and Contaminated Songs”. While it’s great to have “Themes” on disc, breaking up the sequence by plugging in previously released material makes little to no sense besides trying to justify charging a full album. Really sad to see the legacy of two incredibly talented artists ruined posthumously.
