Jungle Trap – Original Motion Picture Score LP
Beginning in the '70s, James Bryan moved from adult movies to action epics like “Lady Street Fighter” and drive-in horror masterpieces like “Don’t Go In The Woods”. Sadly, the straight-to-video distribution market was gradually evaporating, a realization he came to only after completion of principal photography on Jungle Trap, a particularly bizarre undertaking that he'd tackled with his long time creative partner, producer/actress Renee Harmon. Distributors were folding across the industry and those remaining were not adventurous enough to handle the project. Heartbroken, cinematic legend Bryan shelved his movie and never directed again.
Bleeding Skull has long been devoted fans of James Bryan's work, but had no idea that Jungle Trap had even been attempted. Imagine finding this prolific director had an entirely unseen feature just waiting to be pieced together!
Under director James Bryan’s guidance, Taken By Savages recorded a new score using '80s synthesizers and perfectly emulating the era’s sound. The resulting score is nothing short of spectacular. Droning mono synths tie the score together alongside head-crunching analogue snare hits while arpeggios & melodic power synths soar over dirty and rough electronic notes. It’s easily as good as anything released at the time, and as soon as we heard it we knew it would be right at home at Death Waltz.
