Digitally remastered edition of this Synth Pop, pocket Punk, French Funk ultra rarity, originally released in 1985 as a limited edition of 100 black cassette tapes. · As one of the most prolific and viciously self-sufficient exponents of the early '80s French DIY/domestic Synthpop scene, X Ray Pop are a group who are easy to scratch the surface but almost impossible to get the bottom of. From the earliest, lower levels of the X vault Cache Cache and Pilot resurrect one of the band's finest untraveled moments in the form of the rare tape only one-sider 'Pirate!' - a spontaneous long player comprised of raw, rhythm heavy electronic versions of exclusive tracks alongside heavier and darker industrial versions of tracks that would later creep into the band's unhinged official pop discography.
