Stereolab is a UK-based band whose style, mixing 1950s-1960s pop and loungemusic with the "motorik" beat of krautrock, was one of the first to which the term " post-rock" was applied. They are noted for the use of vintage keyboard instruments like Moog synthesizers and Vox and Farfisa organs. Stereolab is also notable for founding their own record label, Duophonic Records, with a grant from UK charity The Prince's Trust. The band is often referred to as "The Groop" by their fans (and in the title of their song "The Groop Play Chord X" on the album Space Age Bachelor Pad Music). They were founded in 1990 by songwriters (guitar, keyboards), formerly of the band McCarthy, and Laetitia Sadier(sometimes credited as Seaya Sadier; vocals, keyboards, trombone, guitar), who is from franceand sings in both English and French.

Cybele’s Reverie Lyrics
Stereolab
Matires sensuelles et sans suite
Lenfance est plus sympathique
Lenfance apporte le magique
Que faire quand on a tout fait
Tout lu tout bu tout mang
Tout donn en vrac et en dtail
Quand on a cri sur tous les toits
Pleur et ri dans les villes et en campagne
Lenfance est plus authentique
Le jardin au haut portique
La maison la maison dautrefois
La maison la maison venir
Et le silence
Me pntrera
Les pierres, les arbres, les murs, racontent (from 145)
(with la maison...)
And they seemed to say :
Et le silence-trera
Et me penetrera
But silence-trera means nothing, or its just for the rhyme. cybeles reverie
Childhood is very nice
Childhood brings magic
What to do when one has done everything?
Read everything, drunk everything, eaten everything?
Given everthing in truth and in detail,
When one has cried on all the rooftops,
Wept and laughed in the towns and in the country?
Childhood is the most real
The garden of new visions
The house, the house, of other times
The house, the house that we have left
And the silence
That penetrates me
