Originally a soundtrack for the VHS only sexual education documentary "The Gay Man's Guide To Safer Sex", released in 1992.
The OST, to quote John Balance's interview for Compulsion Online, "is [a] slightly new agey, progressive house type thing".
Taken from the original masters provided by Danny Hyde, this release features a new edit of the main theme. Additional tracks "Nasa-Arab" and "Omlagus Garfungiloops" are taken from the 1992 CD only "Stolen And Contaminated Songs", both being original versions of the radically reworked tracks "Nasa-Arab 2" and "Exploding Frogs".
