Hobo Cult 2.1 (Hobo Cult)



/Avant-garde, Psychedelic, Post-psychedelic electronica, Experimental indie, Lo-fi, Avant-pop, DIY, Krautrock/


Comment: I have often thought during last years that the pop tradition is used to repeat itself, coming forth as a cyclic appearance. However, this miscellany of 21 tracks represents the nowadays underground situation and consciousness while harking back to be mirrored upon the early days of electronic music and experimental rock. In fact, therein can be met the shadows of CAN, Neu!, Suicide, Tangerine Dream, Kraftwerk, The Silver Apples and other seminal legends. It is compilated by the Montreal-based label Hobo Cult including such artists as Dirty Beaches, Reedbeds, CVLTS, Quiet Evenings, Jean-Sèbastien Truchy, Panabrite, Relax and Sleep, Body Rush and many others.
