Our Take
Our Take
Imagine donning your finest threads, sipping on a gin and tonic, and grooving to the sophisticated sounds of Heaven 17. Well, now you can experience that in the comfort of your own penthouse with the Half-Speed Master Edition of "Penthouse And Pavement."
This remastered album takes the sleek, synth-driven tracks of the '80s and polishes them to a high sheen. With hits like "Temptation" and "Let Me Go," Heaven 17 proves they're not just a one-hit wonder, but a force to be reckoned with in the electronic music scene.
The production on this album is so crisp, it's like biting into a perfectly cooked chip with mushy peas on the side. Each track sparkles with precision and attention to detail, making for an incredibly satisfying listening experience.
But it's not all glitz and glamour with Heaven 17. Lyrically, they tackle social and political issues with a wry sense of humour that is quintessentially British. From questioning authority on "We Don't Need This Fascist Groove Thang" to reflecting on the mundanity of everyday life on "Play To Win," Heaven 17 shows they're not afraid to speak their mind.
So, whether you're lounging in your penthouse or strutting down the pavement, this album is sure to transport you to a world of electronic bliss. Don't be a square, give "Penthouse And Pavement" a spin and let Heaven 17 take you on a musical journey like no other.
