Description
2015, 12″ LP, Dark Entries.
Having previously impressed with their reissue of Patrick Cowley’s brilliant, all-synthesizer soundtrack to obscure ’70s gay porn flick School Daze, Dark Entries and Honey Sound System once again join forces to shine a light on the high energy disco pioneer’s work for San Francisco’s Fox Studios. Unsurprisingly, it’s another impressive collection, and features material recorded for a number of different pornographic films. There are naturally more up-tempo moments – see “Somebody To Love Tonight”, which would later be re-recorded with Sylvester, and the synth-weirdness-meets-jazz-funk brilliance of “5oz of Funk” – but it’s the impressively cosmic and exotic ambient moments, such as the stand-out “Timelink” and “Jungle Magic”, that really stand out. – Juno
