Our Take

Ah, the glory days of Sheffield, where steelworkers turned into synth-pop pioneers. The album "Dreams To Fill The Vacuum - The Sound Of Sheffield 1978-1988" captures the essence of this vibrant music scene in a delightful bookpack edition.

From the raw energy of The Human League to the experimental sounds of Cabaret Voltaire, this compilation is a treasure trove of sonic delights. Each track is a snapshot of a bygone era, where DIY ethos and boundary-pushing creativity reigned supreme.

The album kicks off with The Human League's iconic "Being Boiled", a pulsating electro-pop anthem that still sounds fresh today. As you delve deeper into the tracklist, you'll encounter gems like Cabaret Voltaire's "Nag Nag Nag" and ABC's "Tears Are Not Enough", showcasing the eclectic mix of genres that defined Sheffield's music scene.

What sets this compilation apart is the accompanying bookpack, filled with rare photos, insightful essays, and behind-the-scenes stories that give you a glimpse into the making of these timeless tracks. It's a must-have for any music lover looking to unravel the mysteries of Sheffield's musical legacy.

So, dear reader, if you're craving a dose of Sheffield's musical magic, look no further than "Dreams To Fill The Vacuum". It's a journey through time and sound that will leave you longing for the days when synthesizers ruled the airwaves. Cheers to Sheffield, the city that filled our ears with dreams.
