The death of Steve Strange gave us the urge to work on covers of Neo-Romantics/New Wave bands of the early 1980s. We have selected great covers of this period of great creativity with analogue synth wave / minimal wave gems. No remixes and no cheap dance music. Comes in a lovely digipak 3 panels deluxe with artwork by Yannick Rault based on original picture by Graham Smith glossy imprint with selective varnish laquer.Includes digital pre-order of Neo Romantix Years (CD UPR 025). You get 16 tracks now (streaming via the free Bandcamp app and also available as a high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more), plus the complete album the moment it’s released.
shipping out on or around 01 August 2015
