Stuart revisits the experimental duo’s surreal 1991 album Love's Secret Domain. Plus, German synthpop, 1960’s garage rock and haunting arrangements for detuned pianos.

Stuart revisits the experimental duo’s surreal and dark 1991 album Love's Secret Domain to mark it’s upcoming reissue. Moving away from their previous penchant for brooding synthesizers and melodies, the album marked a significant jump towards using samples, having been inspired by acid house and heavy nights spent in the grips of the UK rave scene. Love’s Secret Domain is a painstakingly multi-layered psychedelic electronic beast, vibrating with acidic synths, pulsing dance beats and twists and twirls of over-processed snippets of speech.

Elsewhere in the show, bizarre and meandering 1980’s German synthpop, ultra rare punchy garage rock from 1960’s New Mexico and elegantly haunting modern classical arrangements for detuned pianos.
