Zoviet France and Muslimgauze remixes of Pan Sonic

you what? Incredible, long-lost Zoviet France and Muslimgauze remixes of PANASONIC finally see light of day after 23 years in cold storage, thanks to a serendipitous rediscovery by Sähkö First made back when Mika Vainio and Ilpo Väisänen were gamely trading under the PANASONIC moniker (before...

This is one of the few recent things I've listened to more than once. The tunes dating back to the late '90s undercuts that somewhat, mind you.

Ilpo's stuff as Liima's cool.
