Another entry from the darkly enchanting minimal synth-pop and psych-tinged world of The Modern Art. Formed by Ramon in the early 1980's, Modern Art released two albums on vinyl, and a significant amount of impossible-to-find cassettes. Some of this material was compiled in a highly regarded 3-LP (sold out) box set, made in 2013 by Vinyl on Demand. This remastered reissue of quot;Oriental Towers,quot; their second cassette album, originally released in 1983, also includes five previously unissued tracks from that session-two of which are not on our recent LP reissue. On this album you will find examples of what was going on in England during the pinnacle of the post-punk scene-an inspired time that encouraged young musicians to develop music in their own home studios, a D.I.Y. approach that was radical at the time and which still resonates.
