Review: Given the resurgent interest (not to mention bountiful reissues) in his influential soundtrack work, this compilation of unreleased gems from John Carpenter's archives should be greeted with fevered anticipation by devotees of his distinctive sound. Sacred Bones have done a sterling job of gathering together a diverse array of sounds that fit right in with the legendary director's '80s canon, from the gleeful and chipper to the downright spooky. As if that wasn't enough, they've also called upon a strong cast of remixers to deliver some fresh spins on these period pieces, with Silent Servant revelling in morose synthwave and JG Thirlwell having a ball dropping some upfront electro-pop styles.
