Edition of 500 numbered copies (this is 59/250).

Subtitled Minimal Electronic 1981-1983, this Vinyl-On-Demand compilation maps a particular corner of the German underground: the home-studio minimal-synth and tape music made in the early 1980s by bedroom artists working far from any label or stage. It belongs to the same archival impulse that runs through several items in this sale, the patient rescue of music that survived only on dubbed cassettes in tiny numbers.

For listeners drawn to the cold, the spare, and the genuinely obscure, it is a rewarding map of forgotten terrain. The Vinyl-On-Demand pressing.
