Description
OM Swagger’s first Spoon Fazer compilation, Alternative Regression Therapy received rave reviews and led to features in both Electronic Sound and Record Collector magazines. There was even a special edition on red vinyl. We are now delighted to bring you a second volume of Spoon Fazer material that is just as good as that first release. Once again, Spoon has delved into his archive to serve up a stunning 17-track compilation of material that drops anchor in the ports of synth pop, cold wave, instrumentals and electronica. Recorded in the 80s at a number of London studios as well as showcasing Spoon on vocals and synths and long-time collaborator Tom Langton-Lockton there are a number of ear watering guests including Jimmy Cauty (JAMMS/KLF) Dominique Brethes, Francis Monkman and even some drum programming from Rob Doran of the legendary Hard Corps. But it is Spoon who dominates centre stage and it kicks off with T.R.E.X, an electronic audio love letter to Marc Bolan that sounds like a long-lost hit. As well as compelling electronic instrumentals like Kabuki and Independence, tracks like Real Life Touches Your Heart and Man in Sect are compelling songs. Throw in cover versions of classics like the Monkees’ I’m A Believer and Johnny Remember Me and on Set Fazer To Stun, Spoon Fazer boldly goes where no electronic artist has gone before.
