As the daughter of famed conceptual artist Dennis Oppenheim. By age nine, Chandra was staying up late at her parentsÆ art-world parties, collaborating in her fatherÆs projects, and performing her own plays at downtown hotspots such as The Kitchen and Franklin Furnace. This set the stage for ChandraÆs course-altering collaboration with members of The Dance, who were looking to form yet another project and found their muse/fuse in 10- year-old Chandra. Transportation EP, originally released in 1980 by The DanceÆs own label, ON/GoGo. Balancing on razor- wire guitars, liquid bass lines, and dub-style melodica, the Chandra band unveiled their first four songs: ôOppositeö, ôConcentrationö, ôSubwaysö, and ôKate.ö At age 12, the post-punk pre-teen took the stage with her band for the first time at New YorkÆs legendary Mudd Club. A whirlwind of press coverage ensued from glossy magazines like Vogue and Paris Match to the influential underground zine Non LP B Side and a Soho News cover story. The infectious, propulsive ôGet It Out Of Your Systemö opens ChandraÆs second EP with one of her most commanding performances. ôStrangerö slows the pace with stop-start rhythms, woozy synths, and the harmonized return of the melodica, while its lyrics find her being followed by a mysterious character revealed to be a woman. ôTish Le Direö sounds like The B-52s in an eerie alternate universe with instructions on speaking up to your parents or authorities to the point of threatening suicide. Chandra stepped away from the band at age 14 to focus on her education. Sadly, the second EP was shelved and would not see the light of day for decades. ChandraÆs trip continues with this new deluxe reissue from Telephone Explosion Records. Returning her debut EP to its original four- song, single-record release at a dancefloor-ready remastered 45 RPM, the expanded edition also adds to the second EP with a pair of never released songs from her 1983 four-track cassette demos. ôDay Without Successö and ôTheyÆre All Alikeö find ChandraÆs dreamlike vocals driven by minimal wave synth zaps and pulsating drum machines -
