The tour announcement follows on from the recent news that the fifth instalment of the groupâs âSwitched Onâ reissue campaign would be released on September 2. ‘Pulse of the Early Brain [Switched On Volume 5]’ is out via Warp Records and Duophonic UHF Disks and can be pre-ordered here.
The previous instalment of the Switched On series was 2021âs ‘Electrically Possessed’. It included rarities, outtakes and non-album tracks including âThe First Of The Microbe Huntersâ, unreleased outtakes from the âMars Audiac Quintetâ and âDots And Loopsâ sessions, and a track called âDimension M2â, which was first released in 2005 on the âDisko Cabineâ compilation.
Stereolab also recently released ‘Robot Riot’ from ‘Pulse of the Early Brain [Switched On Volume 5]’, which was originally written for a sculpture made by Charles Long – an artist that the band had previously collaborated with on 1995’s ‘Music For The Amorphous Body Study Center’ project.
