Description
I start with the Razormaid remix of “Images Of Heaven”. The interesting thing about this remix is that it combines the regular twelve inch version with its B-side “Spoken Images”. Peter Godwin & Polydor loved the result as well as it is one of the few Razormaid remixes that got an official release. The second and third tracks in this week’s mix are also prime examples of early eighties synth-pop : “Flash In The Night” by Secret Service and “Messages” by OMD I’ve included a rare German remix of “The Anvil” (Der Amboss) by Visage. Fun because of the peculiar accent of Steve Strange (a story we’ll surely tell in one of the future episodes) and a lesser known Peter Baumann (of Tangerine Dream) synth-pop remake of a Frank Sinatra classic (also in an English/German mix)
