The tour announcement follows on from last years fifth instalment of the group’s ‘Switched On’ reissue campaign. ‘Pulse of the Early Brain [Switched On Volume 5]’ is out via Warp Records and Duophonic UHF Disks.

The previous instalment of the Switched On series was 2021’s ‘Electrically Possessed’. It included rarities, outtakes and non-album tracks including ‘The First Of The Microbe Hunters’, unreleased outtakes from the ‘Mars Audiac Quintet’ and ‘Dots And Loops’ sessions, and a track called ‘Dimension M2’, which was first released in 2005 on the ‘Disko Cabine’ compilation.

Stereolab also recently released ‘Robot Riot’ from ‘Pulse of the Early Brain [Switched On Volume 5]’, which was originally written for a sculpture made by Charles Long – an artist that the band had previously collaborated with on 1995’s ‘Music For The Amorphous Body Study Center’ project.
