"After delivering a nation-wide primer on the early '80s French wave of punk acts with last year's Punk 45 - Les Punks: The French Connection, Soul Jazz square their focus on one of the bands that featured in Kas Product. Formed of Mona Soyoc and Daniel 'Spatz' Favre, this duo represent a classic French slant on the early synth punk formation with the former's dramatic vocal delivery and cheap guitars offering a foil for the latter's budget electronics. As Kas Product, Soyoc and Favre recorded several albums throughout the '80s that played their part in shaping the Coldwave movement in France; a fact Soul Jazz attempt to reaffirm on this compilation. Essentially a repackaged edition of the Kas Product retrospective issued on Paris label Fan Club in 1990, Black &amp; Noir - Mutant Synth-Punk from France leads with debut single Mind and covers the period between their first two albums. A period where Soyoc and Favre were more focussed on experimentation as opposed to the latent poppy avant-gardisms of their third and final album, Ego Eye. Highlights here include the scratchy punk funk of Seven, the bleepy electro of Party and the bizarro Talking Heads pomp of Mezzo."
