Irsol - First Contact+Half Life,tapes,1983,UK
Here 's an early 80s top notch recording in the electronic/exdperimental minimal synth field. Irsol have released those 2 tapes in the Adventures In Reality label . Minimal experimental electronics , like a strange mixture of Snowy Red early recordings with late 70s Cabaret Voltaire,Thomas Leer and the more popish Nocturnal Emissions recordings.The sound is sometimes dark and harsh (in the DOA/20 Jazz Funk era TG vein) and in some parts closer to synth pop in UV Pop/Snowy Red vein.
PS: This post is especially for my friend TAX .I know he looks for them years now!

Fantastic! I love the IRSOL material, but only had First Contact until now. IRSOL was a recording project of Ashley Niblock of Attrition and some mates, back when he lived in Coventry. Ash left IRSOL and Attrition when he went to university in London.
killer!!!
