Yéyé Existentialiste is an essential compilation of the recording highlights of one of the world’s greatest exponents of lo-fi pop - Stereo Total. This album is the first ‘best of’ to fully cover the bands 20 years of releases with all the tracks being fully re-mastered. Stereo Total is the Berlin based French-German duo Françoise Cactus and Brezel Göring, whose playful eclectic music incorporates anything from New Wave, Pop Electronique, 60’s French pop mashed up with trashy Garage Punk Rock and Disco to form the band’s distinctive sound.

Mixing up electronics, funk, guitars and chic vocals Stereo Total were totally ahead of their time...From dancefloor ripping tracks, psyched-out futurist grooves and cute pop they were a quirky torch-carrier to Kraftwerk, Stereolab and Velvet Underground...Many of you might know the delicious pop of 'I Love You ONO' which recently featured on an advert but trust me...This retrospective is ESSENTIAL listening for summer!
