Black and Noir (vinyl LP w. download)

Soul Jazz Records are releasing a collection of lost recordings by French mutant experimental synth group KaS Product, all originally recorded in the period 1980 to 1983. KaS Product feature on Soul Jazz Records' recent Punk 45 - Les Punks: The French Connection. Mainly recorded on early tape, synth and drum machines, KaS Product's mixture of Spatsz' hypnotic, electronic and angular hard-edged beats, matched to the spiky vocals and guitar of Mona Soyoc, have led to comparisons with Suicide, Liliput/Kleenex, and Cabaret Voltaire, as well as to the group being forerunners of the cold wave/synth wave movement.
