about

"If you’re unfamiliar with 'Euphoria', I envy you your coming immersion. I envy you falling in love with Kirsty Yates’ voice, direct but dreamily drowsy, and her words –so refreshingly clear and honest– will startle you with their almost intrusive insight. I envy you learning that Julian Tardo is one of the greatest guitarists of 90’s pop, his liquid, gorgeously prone playing adding skin-puckering delight to every track.” – Neil Kulkarni, The Wire Magazine

A reissue of the 1993 album 'Euphoria' by UK duo Insides (previously Earwig). 'Euphoria' sits at the crossroads of a very exciting time in the early 1990s when artists like Seefeel, Moonshake, and Aphex Twin were mining emerging technologies and pushing British music in new directions. A leftfield electronic pop album without peer, 'Euphoria' incorporates programmed beats, elements of neoclassical minimalism, and the soothing voice and acerbic lyrics of singer Kirsty Yates into a memorable and masterful collection of songs that sound like nothing else, either then or now.

Reviews at the time reference composers like Steve Reich and Brian Eno as well as groups like My Bloody Valentine and AR Kane and describe it as being both "danceable" and "ambient". Originally released on 4AD offshoot label Guernica (Unrest, Bettie Serveert, Spoonfed Hybrid), the album made many year-end lists in 1993. Licensed from 4AD and remastered by Julian Tardo from the original tapes, the LP will feature the original packaging as well as a new insert featuring liner notes by Simon Reynolds, who coined the term "post-rock" while writing about the group in 1993. Limited edition of 2000.
