THE EE EP: The first ever vinyl release on the EE Tapes label.
Straight from the 80s Belgian cassette culture scene, here comes THE MISZ.
After the success of the “Eddy Merckz” re-release LP (on OnderStroom earlier in 2010), EE Tapes proudly present this Extended Play ( 7”, 33 rpm, 4 songs), containing the best of the 1984 “It Ain’t All Garbage” debut cassette.
THE MISZ was one of those truly authentic 80s DIY bands, dealing with their life and the world through music, self-producing limited editions of tapes which they would send around the globe. With a few guitars, a drumcomputer and an old synth (or was it just this casio?), they created strange minimal/ synth-/electro wave songs, with catchy melodies, fine male/female harmonics, and sometimes political, sometimes nonsensical lyrics. Some say: “reminiscent of Tuxedomoon, Trisomie 21, Pseudocode and Minimal Compact”.
Aux gens, aux bêtes.... aan de vele kleine kinderen in de kerk aanwezig - comment? - 33 revolutions per minute and higly recommended!
Only 240 copies available. The first 75 copies are numbered and contain 2 original pictures each, from a series of 16 “could have been” covers.
