KAS PRODUCT	By Pass	CD	GM RECORDS	GME 977CD
$16.00 LOW STOCK LEVEL Music is like literature: getting through a second novel or second album is often a perilous exercise. Spatsz and Mona Soyoc, propelled into the limelight by their explosive Try Out, headed off to New York to record a follow-up to this fabulous debut. By Pass (1983) follows in the musical and sonic footsteps of its predecessor. The same sticky synth layers, the same flayed vocals capable of voluptuous flights, KaS Product still navigates the murky waters of a nervous, unhealthy cold wave, somewhere between the gall of Suicide and the gothic melodies of Siouxsie. And the melodies are always there, as on the stunning "Tina Town" and "T.M.T," two of the most successful tracks on an album that holds up remarkably well, and also deserves a closer look at its detours, such as "Taking Shape" or "Tape" at the end of the disc.

KAS PRODUCT	Try Out	CD	GM RECORDS	GME 981CD
$16.00 IN STOCK It took a certain determination (and a fair amount of recklessness) to embark on the path of coldwave music in 1982, in Nancy, eastern France. Spatsz worked the machines while Mona sang and played guitar. KaS Product, an unusual duo, debuted with Try Out, a true slap in the face. Synths sent out waves of varying degrees of unease, while Mona Soyoc's voice lent a suave, at times even jazzy tone to this dark, interloping music. Far from cultivating French melancholy, KaS Product leaned towards the United States and its influences, and its synthetic punk seriously shook neurons on tracks such as "Never Come Back" and "So Young And So Cold." Sexy and uncompromising, Try Out marked the near-perfect debut of this duo from Nancy, who immediately stood out in the small hexagonal post-punk world of the time. And their minimalist production has fortunately aged very well.

The album features nine Bowie covers, including "Space Oddity" and "Wild Is The Wind," and one original. Mike Garson displays the full extent of his talent one last time on this project, which brings their collaboration to a close. Available on vinyl for the first time.
