Pop Artificielle
Pop Artificielle is a 1998 album by "lb" (which refers to "Lassigue Bendthaus", one of the many aliases of musician Uwe Schmidt).  All of the songs are covers of pop songs from the 1960s, 70s, and 80s.  The entire album, as the title implies, is designed to sound very synthetic, incorporating special vocal processing and elements of glitch music.
It was originally released on KK Records in Belgium in 1998 (cat. no. KK 141); it was licensed to various companies. The album was released in the U.S. by Shadow Records in 2000 and peaked at #32 on the CMJ RPM Charts.
