Probably only for STEREOLAB freaks.
But it shoudn't.
As I told in my previous post, this pop masterpiece recorded in 2004 was mixed in "DUAL MONO", not in stereo, which means that each instrument is recorded on one channel only (left or right). In the end, it's definitly one whole new album on each channel.
I've made the job for you to make it easier to listen on you 2 speakers the 2 versions : there's the "left album" and the "right album", 2 mono albums that are radically different, although it depends on the tracks (am I clear enough?). Of course, the more obvious effect is that some parts are 100% instrumental now, one other is the absence of the classic Stereolab organ on one version - on the contrary it's almost too present on the other - etc... Some moments become absolutely beautiful now, with a kind of minimalism that is new in some way in their music. It allows to hear how talented they are too.
Take this experience as a re-discover of the album.
The 2 versions are here.

Superbe découverte ! Merci beaucoup…
là tu sauves tout, chapeau bas.
au diable Laeticia, quel dommage que le bus ne t'ai pas emporté à la place de Mary... on aurait enfin pu écouter les deux mono-side réunies !
Merci tonton.
Espoir et Salut
Thanks a lot for all the STEREOLAB stuff!
m-f
I am 100% deaf in my right ear,and although I had played this album through room speakers, unbeknown to me I was already expieriencing the "left" version of this album in headphones. Hearing the "right" one has given me a new perspective on it. Thanks for this post and pointing this out - I may never have known had you not!
Thanks!
