Anniversary LP Edition.
The original album cut AAA (fully analogue) from original master tape; and a bonus LP including previously unreleased alternate versions and outtakes from the recording sessions.
Spine-tingling intimacies from the Maxinquaye singer, voice of Gorillaz and Massive Attack — a personalized songbook, with the spotlight on her gorgeous voice and fine songwriting; uncovered, frank and alive.
Unique improvised pop from 1974, by Jean-Jacques Birgé — one of the first French synthesizer players (ARP 2600) — and guitar virtuoso Francis Gorgé.
‘Have you ever imagined what a meeting between the Silver Apples and Sonny Sharrock would sound like?’
Finally — with its guitar-less Elektronika Demonika soundtrack on CD. ‘Diabolical… a phantasmagoric presentation of demonic and divine imagery to put the viewer into an altered state of darkened awareness.’
Superb songwriting in a dazzling range of styles and voices, from soul ballads to cocktail jazz, the sardonic to the purely heartfelt.
Karuna Khayal runnings from 1975. ‘Orchestrated fuzz guitar, echo-drenched percussion, reverbed bass, zithers, assorted taped sounds and vocals that are simply inspired… a must for devotees of Faust and Can.’
