SL 113EP
|
Proto-future pop exhumed from '86, Romie Singh's Dancing to Forget, could easily be mistaken for an up-to-the minute R&B instrumental from '22. The song's elastic swing reminiscent of a vintage Wally Badarou Compass Point session. Instead masterminded by studio maestros Günther Janssen (more lately of Donna Regina) and Peter Hantke, while Romie's vocals soar above. It's a timeless call to escape life's ills via the dancefloor. Collected here on Strangelove the cavernous, dubbed out "D.T.F." (12" version) sits alongside the prescient hope/dystopia of LP cut "Future World" (cue Covid World) and the killer Balearic-beat sass of "Credo". A short sharp three-track jolt into the trio's cult '80s catalog. Shouts to Basso for the original resuscitation!
