Blank & Jones - So80s Soeighties 2
Review by Grace Musyoka
So80s Soeighties 2 is an impressive album by the German electronic music duo, Blank & Jones. This album features a collection of classic hits from the 80s, remixed and reimagined for a contemporary audience. The album is a perfect blend of nostalgia and modernity, making it an excellent addition to any music lover's collection.
From the opening track, "The Sun Always Shines on TV," the album sets the tone for an exciting journey through the 80s. The remixes of popular songs like "West End Girls" and "Sweet Dreams" are fresh and modern, yet still capture the essence of the original tracks. The album also features lesser-known hits like "New Song" by Howard Jones, which are given new life through Blank & Jones' remixes.
The production quality of the album is exceptional, with each track showcasing the duo's expertise in electronic music. The beats are infectious, and the synth-heavy arrangements are a nod to the 80s era. The album also features collaborations with other talented artists, such as Claudia Brücken and Paul Young, which add an extra layer of depth to the tracks.

The guitarist on this album is listed as "Andy Barnet". Also, just looking this up, the attractive lady cop at the end who lets him out of the cell is named Laurie Brown and is now 65 years old. I sometimes forget how long ago the 80s were.
