@megaterius. I have Traffic Sound's "A Bailer GoGo" & "Virgin" albums, on a Background records CD, called "Traffic Sound". Background HBG 122/4, 1992. If you can find it, get Stereolabs album ABC Music, SFRSCD111 on the BBC/Strange Fruit label. It's all their BBC sessions from 1991 - 2001, cracking stuff.
@stratocuse I would almost agree, but if you listen to the first phrase, its a pretty standard stereolab progression. Then they start throwing in some delay to give it some movement, and then they just start chopping it up. But all music is a happy accident, in one way or another.
@spindalis79 It was tour single in 2001. As far as I know it was only available as a 7". The cover was also the design for a t-shirt.... Could really do with a Switched on volume 4!
@megaterius what's a stereolab fan to do in peru? I'm going there in a couple weeks... i remember when the group played this song as an encore on the tour it was the single for. what a track!
is this a sound dust era single? man right now there is nothing sweeter than catching up on missed stereolab singles here on youtube
Never could find this back in the Napster/AudioGalaxy/LimeWire days. Great to finally hear it.
Another f-ing amazing creation from Stereolab.

This is historic.

Actually, that's French poet Charles Baudelaire on the necklace with the upside down cross.

@megaterius thanks! I will check out those bands and wish me luck finding a cool show in Peru.
@stratocuse It's actually a sample from a Sergio Mendes song called Primitivo.
