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 was: John Balance, Peter "Sleazy" Christopherson and Danny Hyde.
The OST, to quote John Balance's interview for Compulsion Online, "is [a] slightly new agey, 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.
Bonuses "Nasa-Arab" and "Omlagus Garfungiloops" are taken from the 1992
CD only "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.
