Dark Entries releases archival tracks on 10th anniversary compilation

10 artists across 10 different countries.

Dark Entries is celebrating their 10-year anniversary with an archival 10-track compilation, titled Tens Across the Board, released this November.

The newly remastered tracks span 1981-1993 and have been pressed on vinyl for the first time.

Tens Across the Board traverses from ethereal pop in From Nursery To Misery’s ‘Contentment’, to Parade Ground’s minimalist modular synth track, ‘The Light’s Gone’, and Cyrnai’s drum-heavy dance tune ‘Digital Grit Box (Demo)’.

The new compilation includes a poster capturing Dark Entries’s roster of artists, plus an insert with lyrics, notes and photos.

The release follows Dark Entries 2018 reissue of Lena Platonos’ 1985 LP Gallop, described by Platonos as “a study in the mythology of urban population of the contemporary metropolis.”
