 In 1995, German label Crippled Dick Hot Wax released Vampyros Lesbos, a compilation of late-'60s funky soundtrack recordings from the films of Eurosleaze maestro Jesús Jess Franco. Since that record is universally beloved (it can kickstart a decadent mood in any party or lounge where it's deployed), fans were stoked when the folks at the sporadically dormant CDHW announced they were putting out the never-before-released soundtrack to Kamasutra, a German sex-education/exploitation film from 1969.The bad news: not only is this not another Vampyros Lesbos (very few so-hyped records are), it's not even remotely related in vibe or rhythms. The good news: Kamasutra is, in fact, a very early Can recording, credited to "Irmin Schmidt Inner Space Production." The jams are driven by Schmidt's Orientalist keyboard noodlings and feature the unmistakable slinky guitar lines of Michael Karioli. If you don't come expecting music by which to watch Sapphic succubae in modernist discotheques, you'll be delighted with this Eastern excursion by some very accomplished hippies, from the same inner spaces that spawned George Harrison's "Wonderwall," Pink Floyd's "More," and Jerry Garcia's contributions to Zabriskie Point....full text |

| Better late than never? A good four decades after its making, a rare gem is up for release: the soundtrack to Kobi Jaeger’s erotic and educational epic KAMASUTRA – consummation of love composed and recorded by Irmin Schmidt & The Inner Space. A precursor to krautrock pioneers CAN, Schmidt’s 1968 recording assembles Can’s original line-up – Michael Karoli, Jaki Liebezeit and Malcolm Mooney – who later went on to craft the band’s seminal debut, Monster Movie. The film KAMASUTRA – consummation of love switches between India and Germany and stars Bruno Dietrich and Barbara Schöne. A prime example of late 1960s German erotica and the so-called sexual revolution, it liberated the subject of sex from dingy red light cinemas and whisked it away to the exotic Far East, to the realm that – more than a millennium earlier – had spawned the erotic teachings of the KAMASUTRA. Fast-forward to the present day and you will find the film’s well-intentioned, in parts pedagogical approach bristling with (un)intentional comedy....full text |
