Electrically Possessed / Switched On Volume 4

Description

After reissuing its entire studio catalog, Stereolab continues to explore its archives with Electrically Possessed (Switched On Volume 4). Dedicated to the period from 1999 to 2008, this compilation brings together tracks long scattered across out-of-print EPs, tour 45s, soundtracks, collaborations, and songs recorded for compilations, along with several unreleased tracks from the sessions of Dots And Loops and Mars Audiac Quintet. Remastered from the original tapes under the band's supervision, the collection reveals the coherence of a particularly fruitful decade, where pieces like Outer Bongolia, Household Names, Dimension M2, and Calimero naturally interact with compositions that remained unreleased until this release. More than just a supplement to the official discography, Electrically Possessed unfolds as a complete chapter in the history of Stereolab, shedding light on the multiple directions the band took outside of its albums.
