Succexy: Stereolab at Cat's Cradle

As promised, here's some Stereolab. I find it unfair that such an influential band is so grossly underappreciated. By combining the retro and futuristic, they've had a profound impact on the whole "indielectronica" thing, as evidenced by Lali Puna and Broadcast. Lætitia Sadier's delicious French vocals are also reiterated by such as Ivy and Feist. In a word, smooth.

Here's a set recorded at Cat's Cradle on March 22nd, 2006.
