[Audio] Le Cassette’s ‘Electric Paradise’

Some of the UK’s finest SynthPoppers, Le Cassette, have just released their eagerly awaited début album, Left To Our Own Devices. Anyone who’s been following the SynthPop scene in the UK will know that this have been a long time coming, as these guys are one of the more promising acts around. The album itself is definitely worth the wait, containing fifteen tracks of lusciously nostalgic synthesizer based Pop music that evokes the perfect era of British music. That era.

Check out album track Electric Paradise, which nicely works as a standard bearer for the album. With Electric Paradise, as with all of Left To Our Own Devices you’re treated to a sweet retro symphony of vintage synth sounds and punchy drums. The taught electronic bass underpins the track, giving it a particular TOTP UK funk, while waves of warm tones and pads create a bed for shimmering starlight leads. Add to this Adam McNab’s Japan-esque croon and you’ve got the combination for pure 80s goodness.
