304 Stereolab part 1





A longtime favorite of mine, they're always innovative and hard to pin down.  I recall first hearing them on the Nurse With Wound collaboration EP Crumb Duck.  That gave them street cred in my book and I quickly dove into their catalog.  It was the early albums that took heavy influence from Neu! that kept me coming back for more.  The later albums transitioned away from the motorik beats and guitar driven songs to quirky space-age pop akin to Esquivel.  I've split this mix roughly along those two lines, as I admit a 2+ hour long mix of Stereolab might be a lot to take in one sitting.
