I have the Mars Audiac vinyl reissue. It sounds fine, but no better than the CD and from what I read somewhere, it is in fact actually just a vinyl press of the CD, not from the master or anything.

Per earlier post:
(I'd say if someone has a complete set they can send to tylerw he'll take care of the rest.)
So, tylerw...?
― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 16 January 2014 15:23 (ten years ago) link

― tylerw, Thursday, 16 January 2014 15:59 (ten years ago) link

oh and the tape op interview looks great -- the one that appeared in the print edition was frustratingly truncated it seemed.
― tylerw, Thursday, 16 January 2014 16:14 (ten years ago) link
Good interview!

This week we spoke to Sean O'Hagan, formerly of Microdisney and Stereolab, about his life in South London, Stereolab's South London roots, the transpontine tunes he recorded with The High Llamas and 'Here Come The Rattling Trees', his latest narrative music project which is set in Peckham.

sorry i cyberbullied everyone into it, but it had to be done...
― tylerw, Friday, 17 January 2014 22:18 (ten years ago) link
I'm glad you are interested in them. If Ned hadn't mentioned it, they eventually would've melted in my garage.
If anyone else on here is interested in some good quality stereolab live recordings, feel free to hit me up for the URL.

saw them at leeds cockpit 1999/2000 terrible soundköln 2005? amazing gig, properly loud, loved the bassist that night, they seemed genuinely surprised that cologne loved them, highlights: a song i've never heard before or since and stomach wormreading the year morrissey white stripes libertines without pete played. was meh was in a tent they weren't into and half the crowd were waiting for lethal bizzle or dizzy rascal

the groop was definitely one of the first bands where i was like "i must own everything by this band"
― brimstead, Saturday, 18 January 2014 02:44 (ten years ago) link
hahaha good luck with that one
― OutdoorFish, Saturday, 18 January 2014 02:51 (ten years ago) link
I'd love some live 'lab if you could email biznotic AT gmail. Saw them in New Orleans on the ETK tour. Threw a little alien toy on stage and it ended up displayed on their Moog? for the duration of the set.

Transient Random-Noise Bursts with AnnouncementsMars Audiac QuintetEmperor Tomato Ketchup
i like the idea of stereolab (i.e., that general sound, and the individual elements the band drew from), but i've had a hard time getting into them. these are stupid reasons, but it's partly because (a) i generally dislike their album cover art and (b) i've become too impatient a listener to get through what i remember being fairly long songs. that said, i loaded the three albums listed above into my ipod this morning, and i really liked what i heard of them. i'd like to try another approach to this band, but i think it's best to try that with individual songs, rather than full-albums. what individual songs from the discs above is the best "way-into" stereolab?
― Daniel, Esq 2, Saturday, 18 January 2014 21:28 (ten years ago) link
Probably something from "Transient Random Noise Bursts With Announcements" because it has more of a tendency to ROCK as opposed to the outer space science pop with cooing French lyrics that you probably associate with Stereolab.
― NoTimeBeforeTime, Saturday, 18 January 2014 21:38 (ten years ago) link
actually i really liked the "outer space science pop with cooing french lyrics"-songs that i heard. i just want to take it in small, carefully-selected doses at the start.
― Daniel, Esq 2, Saturday, 18 January 2014 21:43 (ten years ago) link
Mars Audiac Quintet is the on you want.

Daniel Esq 2, check out "Perversion" and "The Seeming And The Meaning" from Peng! too bcz you will be really delighted
― queen bey backers (Stevie D(eux)), Sunday, 19 January 2014 17:30 (ten years ago) link
perversion is great. i love the cascading, and kind of dueling, vocal lines. i've also decided that, with this band, it's really useful to read the lyrics; they add considerable heft to the songs.
― Daniel, Esq 2, Sunday, 19 January 2014 22:44 (ten years ago) link
Thank you, Moodles!
