Medical Records presents the groundbreaking electronic classic “Explorer” and its sister LP “Yellow Power” by the multi-talented Tony Carey. Medical Records has chosen to reissue the highly-sought after “Explorer” LP along with “Yellow Power” as a 2LP package. Rumor has it that “Explorer” was intended to be demos for the “Yellow Power”. Eventually both of these brilliant LPs were released on X Records in 1982. Though both LPs have similar tracks, the overall mixes and feel of the two LPs are vastly different. “Explorer” is the more stripped down almost proto-techno meets synthed out Italo disco while “Yellow Power” has a more polished, well-rounded and produced sound with a different array of instrumentation and alteration in mood. The first cut on “Explorer” is the infectious “Enjaw J” which sets the mood and boasts melodic synths and dance floor pounding beats. “No. 8” is a swirling and cascading piece with masterful arrangements and quite interesting percussive patterns. The tracks on “Yellow Power” seem to convey a futuristic sci-fi Japanese motif which possibly explains the beautiful airbrushed samurai warrior on the original cover. Some tracks have sparse vocal samples such as on the lovely “Peking Duck” and “Queen of Scots”. This special release combines both of these lost classics in one convenient 2LP set. Released in a sturdy gatefold jacket with “montaged” new artwork on the front and back but preserved original covers in the inside of the gatefold, it is a gorgeous reissue. Comes 160 gram vinyl (LP1 is green and LP2 is baby blue) in limited edition of 1000 hand-numbered copies. Release also includes a special bonus insert with a retrospective and interview by Dave Segal. Great package!!
