First reissue of the 1986 compilation.
"A different perspective of women's music!", as the original subtitle reads, comprises 11 tracks by uncompromising experimental music artists, all women, ranging from electro-acoustic to industrial sounds. Originally released in 1986 on the iconic Spanish record label Auxilio de Cientos (also home to Diseño Corbusier, pioneer Belgian EBM/Industrial band The Klinik, and the amazing compilations "Pas De Deux" and "Terra Incognita"). It is now reissued for the first time, including the work of: Wendy Chambers, Emily Faryna, Neo Zelanda, Anne Gillis, Dagi Bernhard, Sue Ann Harkey, Tara Cross, Ericka Irganon and Audio Letter. Most of them known in the minimal/synth-related wave-music and cassette-culture scenes. "Femirama" opens with "Star Spangled Banner" played by Wendy Chambers with a car horn organ, unveiling the unconventional music paths this compilation was focused on. Emily Faryna is a solo multi-format Vancouver artist who was very prolific in Canada's cassette scene and features two tracks on this record. Neo Zelanda is the personal project of Ani Zinc, member of the Spanish experimental duo Diseño Corbusier and co-founder of Auxilio de Cientos, the Spanish label this compilation was originally released on. The album is completed with cuts taken from various cassettes released by the artists in the first half of the 80s that were available on vinyl for the first time in this compilation, having a somewhat wider distribution than the underground cassette scene. "Femirama", a pioneering compilation showcasing the recordings of women in the underground experimental music scene of the 80s, is now reissued for the first time, with a replica of its original insert and artwork.
