From its original inception on an audio tape in 1992, Amp, led by Richard Amp (Richard F. Walker) and French-born Karine Charff have been garnering seemingly contradictory invocations of “oceanic” and “lo-fi” for fifteen years. They're about to release 38 tracks on three CDs, including 12 previously unreleased items and plenty of b-sides from their seven LPs (if you include their 2005 CD-R), 7″ releases and compilation contributions. The collection will be titled All of Yesterday Tomorrow.
