Stones Throw will release Minimal Wave Tapes Volume 2 at the end of next month. Minimal Wave is a label run by New York DJ Veronica Vasicka that specializes in obscure synth bands from the '70s and '80s. Vasicka finds these recordings mostly on out of print cassettes, and reissues them through her label, usually as limited edition LPs or 7-inches. Minimal Wave Tapes Volume 1 , a widely available CD collection of remastered electronic obscurities. Minimal Wave Tapes Volume 2 follows a similar blueprint, with 14 cuts of extra-dark new wave, synth pop and so on, but with more recent tracks as well, such as Felix Kubin's "Japan Japan" and Geneva Jacuzzi's "The Sleep Room" (recorded in 2004 and 2005 respectively). Tracklist Stones Throw Records will release Minimal Wave Tapes Volume 2 on February 27th, 2012 .2 Comments
