Si creías que Stereolab eran un recuerdo del pasado, uno de los mejores grupos de los noventa, estás más que equivocado. Tras su disco de 2008, Chemical Chords, Stereolab regresan a la carga con Not Music, un disco en el que la banda de Laetitia Sadier se reinventa a sí misma, y aunque no volverán a ser los geniales recreadores del Krautrock de la época de Emperor Tomato Ketchup, Stereolab se ha convertido en una especie de mezcla entre la Tropicalia, Os Mutantes, Esquivel, Burt Bacharah y Komeda. Como anticipo de su nuevo disco, puedes ir degustando de manera legal y gratuita este Sun Demon, tema de adelanto de Not Music (2010).
Stereolab – Sun Demon (Single, 2010)
«Over the summer of 2007 Stereolab reconvened at Instant Zero, their studio in Bordeaux to record 32 luminous new songs which would become two distinct albums – 2008’s Chemical Chords and their new release, Not Music. Although on a self-imposed hiatus, ‘Not Music’ is a rich overflowing palette, readily able to blur the gulf between Os Mutantes and the BBC Radiophonic Orchestra; merge Krzysztof Komeda with the Velvet Underground, Francoise Hardy with Neu! and Burt Bacharach with Esquivel. A super-deluxe blend, in other words, with ingredients plucked assiduously from pop’s coolest outposts: 50’s lounge pop, Rive Gauche chanson, Brazilian tropicalia, North American art rock, East European film music, Krautrock. hi-fi test recordings, library music and more. Somehow they distil these apparently incongruent components into an ageless exotica that is all their own» (rcrdlbl.com)
