Stereolab to reissue Switched On Vol 1-3 in 6xLP set

“An entry point to their motorik soundworld.”

Stereolab are reissuing Volumes 1-3 of their Switched On compilation on vinyl, this September via Duophonic UHF Disks.

Formed by duo Lætitia Sadier and Tim Gane, the group boasted a line-up which shifted through 15 musicians during its 19-year existence.

1992’s Switched On, 1995’s Refried Ectoplasm [Switched on Volume 2] and 1998’s Aluminum Tunes [Switched on Volume 3] have all been remastered for this new reissue.

The 48-track Volume 1-3 collection will be released on clear vinyl in a 6xLP set, which contains a 24″x24 poster and 6″x6″ sticker sheet; each album will also be available individually.
