The machine was magnificent, the flickering switches and the magnetic fizz of electricity was bold and profound. This was a computer and it had the potential to change the world. Upon the monitor flashed a series of letters and numbers in a multitude of variations and patterns, it were as if it had a deeper knowledge of each icon and their respective meanings than a human might ever have found. The base of the machine was warm to the touch, hard at work with prosperity and vigour. This was a new age. 

Kофе aka Kofe aka Coffee were a pioneering Russian new wave band whose LP was recently reissued by Baran Records / Other Voices Records. Now it is followed by a reissue and two new edits from Lithuanian producer KGBK.

PREMIERE: Kofe - Computer (KGBK Edit) [Bordello A Parigi]
