Caroline K
Now Wait For Last Year (it)
Official reissue of Caroline K's outstanding 1985 album. This haunting, wistful work of post-industrial synthesizer music was the late Nocturnal Emissions co-founder's only solo record. The music on this cult album seems to exist firmly outside of it. Tags like industrial, minimal synth or proto-techno can't really do justice to the richly cinematic soundworld that Caroline K describes: from the sustained ambient tension of sidelong opener 'The Happening World' to the future-primitive rhythms and stately piano flourishes 'Animal Lattice,' and the melancholic, deep-frozen synth sequences of 'Cheart.'
