Our Take

In a swirling vortex of nostalgia and futuristic beats, Bob Stanley & Pete Wiggs present "The Tears of Technology," a delightful romp through the electronic landscapes of yesteryear and beyond.

Starting off with the hauntingly beautiful "Moonlight Shadow" by Mike Oldfield, the album takes us on a journey through time and space, weaving together classic hits like Tears for Fears' "Shout" and Japan's "Quiet Life" with hidden gems from the likes of Thomas Dolby and Ultravox.

The production on this album is top-notch, with each track expertly curated to create a seamless listening experience that will transport you back to the neon-lit dance floors of the 80s. From the lush synths of OMD's "Messages" to the pulsating rhythms of New Order's "Blue Monday," every song is a lovingly crafted tribute to a golden era of electronic music.

But it's not all retro vibes on "The Tears of Technology." The inclusion of more recent tracks like Hot Chip's "Over and Over" and LCD Soundsystem's "Someone Great" adds a modern twist to the mix, showing that the spirit of innovation and experimentation is alive and well in the electronic music scene.

So, whether you're a seasoned electronica aficionado or just dipping your toes into the genre, "The Tears of Technology" is sure to have something for everyone. So put on your dancing shoes, turn up the volume, and let the music take you on a journey through the past, present, and future of electronic sound.
