Ah, the re-remix. Knives out, everyone. There are two schools of thought on the subject of unearthing a track for a modern-day update. There are those who are turned off by the limited production techniques of the time when the song was originally recorded, and would prefer to give said song a studio upgrade, while another [...]
The heroes of the late 70s/early 80s futu-pop: Kraftwerk, Ultravox, John Foxx, The Human League, Cabaret Voltaire, Gary Numan, Yellow Magic Orchestra, Soft Cell, Visage, Depeche Mode... and Neil Young ? Yes, so it seemed when Young released in 1982 Trans , a synth and vocoder-laden (Moog 16-Channel MBVO Vocoder, to be exact) album featuring futuristic paeans to electronic age in general. This happened...
The Human League are embarking on a steel city tour in the Autumn with Heaven 17 and ABC and to promote it they appeared on BBC breakfast this morning. I was amazed that they clearly had underaken absolutely no research on the topic - the lady presenter asked if they had ever bumped in to the other two bands and had some rivalry when they were in they hey day in the early '80's - which is a surprising...

In addition to the aforementioned artists and, of course, Groove Armada, this year's Lovebox will also feature sets...
As I mentioned mere hours ago, the Sheffield, UK synth-pop outfit THE HUMAN LEAGUE will be touring this August with fellow Sheffielders ABC (and Hollywooder BELINDA CARLISLE ). Unlike ABC, the Human League do not have a new album to draw from, so I guess we'll have to go back to the classics.... [ MP3 ] "Don't You Want Me" [1981] [ MP3 ] "Human" [1986] [ MP3 ] "(Keep Feeling) Fascination" [1983]
I suspect that the skyline of this fine city of Shanghai was completely inspired by a certain new romantic influence of later day 20th century circa nineteen hundred and eighty when a young team of visionaries from Sheffield Yorkshire called themselves 'The Human League' came up with something great there really are no other words to describe Shanghai as every building as far as the eye can see
