Sorry for hyperventilating, I was under the mistaken impression that a CD-ROM version of Entr'acte was available, with a new soundtrack of Erik Satie compositions. Too good of an idea to be true.

But there is a music-only CD with an original score for Entr'acte by Koji Ueno. Nicolas Kent (ndkent@earthlink.net) emails:
"I just got Koji Ueno's rather rare 'Music for Silent Movies'. Most is original music for actual surreal silent films. For Entr'acte he does a nice arrangement of Satie melodies from various Satie compositions. I enjoy Satie's music and have arranged some for film projects myself."

See Yen Records for more on this CD.

Another item of interest from the Japanese music world: Haruomi Hosono released an LP in 1984 called "The Erik Satie Album." It turns out that this was a compilation of Satie piano music by Jean-Joel Barbier from the 1970's, "presented by" Hosono.

Never at a loss for words, Nick waxes-on nostalgically:
"The series of records that the 'presented by Hosono' album was in contained albums of original music quite reminiscent of a Satie style. They are legendary among those who know about them. The series is called 'Music Interior' in Japan and the original recordings were released on the Pan East label in the UK. As far as I know the four original Music Interior albums were the only albums on Pan East"
