$22.00
Catalog #:
AVS 008CD
2005 reissue. "Formed in 1975 by Australian synth pioneer Steve Maxwell Von Braund with fellow musician Geoff Green, Cybotron paved a new musical path for Oz electronic music. Combining prog, Krautrock, and grafting an avant-garde darkness, Cybotron opened up a new sonic world to Aussie audiences. Von Braund found inspiration while living in England in 1970, having witnessed live bands like Pink Floyd, Hawkwind, Can etc., and brought these influences back with him upon his return to Melbourne when forming the band.
Implosion
was Cybotron's third full-length release. Unleashed in 1980 to melt people's minds, it featured Von Braund, Mark Jones and Gil 'Rats' Matthews (of Billy Thorpe & The Aztecs fame), who produced the album both at his home studio and at legendary Armstrong's Studios. It is a symphony of sound, ultra-dramatic and presents a super mind-bending inter-galactic journey. Lovers of Can, Neu, Faust, Amon Düül II, Kraftwerk, Tangerine Dream, etc., will find inspiration in Cybotron's
Implosion
. This deluxe version has been digitally remastered, with extensive liner notes containing new interviews and rare photos. It contains six bonus tracks -- five from Cybotron's uncompleted and unreleased 1981 album Abbey Moor (one being a curious version of Mancini's
Peter Gunn
theme). The album is also packaged in Aztec Music's trademark six-panel digi-pak."

JUNO 003EP
Original 1983 version plus a new Troy Pierce remix. "25 years ago, Juan Atkins and Rick Davis created one of the first electronic classics of the eighties: 'Clear.' It has influenced the electro, techno and house scenes throughout the world. While it sounds as fresh today as it did all that time ago, here we have some new mixes by some of the hottest names around. Troy Pierce of Minus takes a different approach with a chugging 4/4 beat building a minimal, hypnotic dancefloor groove, with an infectious hook that will stay in your head for a long time. The original is also included here in all its glory."
