Unrivalled vinyl digger Joel Martin (of Quiet Village fame) has really
pulled out something special with the original scores to Norman J.
Warren's '78 and '79 low budget horror flicks 'Terror' and 'Prey'
composed by De Wolfe maestro Ivor Slaney.

He's managed to fit both soundtracks onto the same lp so it's an
incredibly jam-packed affair and the quality values are kept sky high
with faithful remastering and extensive sleeve notes from Finders
Keepers bod Cherrystones and the director himself sharing a few
words on the importance of sound in horror films.

One of the first things to strike you is that this is a quintessentially
English horror soundtrack, with a slightly more reserved brand of
menacing drama that you generally wouldn't find in say the brilliant
but often garish Goblin scores to the films of Dario Argento, which
directly inspired 'Terror'.

The first site of the lp devoted to 'Terror' displays an unusually lo-fi
and minimal electronic sound from Slaney who is better known for
his full blown orchestral scores, but manages to refine his  craft for
a lean and tense accompaniment to the film.

'Prey' follows this with a spectacularly uneasy and sinister score,
full of minimal minor key synth moods interspersed with dramatic
funk, arcane pianos and one nugget of folk soul featuring Genesis
backing singer Val McKenna.

You quickly realise you're in the presence of something quite
seminal with this collection of understated but deadly effective
scene setters, and while they're divorced from the original imagery
half the fun is in imagining what would be happening on screen.

So you're left with few options, buy this or weep, or go all out and
track the original video down, and then weep.
