{"product_id":"refried-ectoplasm-switched-on-vol-2","title":"Refried Ectoplasm: Switched On, Vol. 2","description":"REFRIED ECTOPLASM is a compilation of rare tracks, most of which were originally released on 7-inch vinyl between July 1992 and March 1994, and two previously unreleased tracks.\u003cbr\u003eStereolab: Laetitia Sadier, Mary Hansen (vocals); Tim Gane (guitar, Farfisa organ, Moog synthesizer); Katherine Gifford, Sean O'Hagan (organ); Mick Conroy (Farfisa organ); Duncan Brown, Martin Kean (bass); Joe Dilworth, Andy Ramsey (drums).\u003cbr\u003eAdditional personnel: Nurse With Wound.\u003cbr\u003eEngineers include: Robbs, Steve Mack, The Groop.\u003cbr\u003eStereolab's REFRIED ECTOPLASM is a collection of limited-edition vinyl singles the band has been releasing on its own Duophonic Super 45s label, as well as other hard-to-find doo-dads from throughout its lifespan. It's like a career overview without all the stuff you've heard before. As such, it defines Stereolab's musical aesthetic as well as any of their other \"albums\": driving, electric-organ-drenched, VU-propelled space-pop whose wide-eyed beauty is balanced by its sheer simplicity and by Laetitia Sadier's minimalist vocal delivery (often in a foreign tongue).\u003cbr\u003eMostly, Stereolab's is a thick, airborne drone, but one that is all-encompassing enough to sound pretty on some occasions and difficult on others. On the one hand there are the actively odd studio sounds, and wide-ranging Beach Boys-like harmonies that bring their pop virtues to the fore (\"Lo Boob Oscillator\"); on the other hand, there are abrasive, rhythmic journeys with sonic pranksters Nurse With Wound, which tune into the 'lab's experimental impulses (\"Animal Or Vegetable\"). The best tunes, like the proletariat-minded \"Exploding Head Movie,\" do both.","brand":"InnerSleeve","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41896523399333,"sku":"5060384613949","price":46.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/6007\/1077\/products\/2ce5841d6f4897d776b67a8f729af64b.jpg?v=1691579477","url":"https:\/\/www.innersleeve.com\/en-au\/products\/refried-ectoplasm-switched-on-vol-2","provider":"InnerSleeve","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
