“Minimal Wave presents the long awaited 30th anniversary release by FUTURDISK. Originally from Florida, Futurisk was a pioneering electro-punk group that recorded and performed in the pre-midi era of the early '80s. They had two vinyl releases that sold out : The Sound Of Futurism 1980 / Army Now and the Player Piano EP. They played a legendary live show and had some TV appearances and videos (check their video for Army Now here), but for a number of reasons by 1984 Futurisk was history. The Player Piano LP culls material they recorded between 1980-1982, featuring all the tracks from their two 7-inch releases as well as some early 4-track tapes and rare studio recordings. The record is pressed on 180-gram vinyl, comes in a matte printed innersleeve (with old photos and press) and orange matte outer jacket.”
