Notes

The first release of Minimal Wave, limited to 500 numbered copies. Pressed on 180 gram vinyl. Includes free poster.

Selected tracks originally released in 1982 on a cassette (ed. of 200) entitled "New Mexico" recorded at the height of the Cold War and home-taping boom. The original tapes have been restored and remastered, to bring the best possible results without losing the true analog sound.

There is a second edition of 500 copies in different coloured cover with poster.

Review by bratfordlad Feb 20, 2008
Fucking hell. Only just caught The Devil's Dancers on the Clone Cuts comp but my god...This is by far the best song The Human League NEVER wrote. Just the most moving, addictive minimal electro disco tune i've ever heard. A gently burbling Euro synth & a soulful vocal over the freshest minimal beats. Possibly the finest example of lost archive 80s pop i've ever heard! Get that utterly timeless track if you can. It might just change yr life! Even if it means selling your family on e-bay!!!! Love it!
