Our Take

John Foxx's "The Golden Section" is a mesmerising journey through the synth-pop landscape of the 1980s. With his signature icy vocals and futuristic production, Foxx transports listeners to a neon-lit world where robots and humans coexist in perfect harmony.

From the dreamy pop perfection of "Your Dress" to the hauntingly beautiful "Endlessly," this album is a testament to Foxx's songwriting prowess. The shimmering synths and pulsating rhythms create a hypnotic backdrop for Foxx's introspective lyrics, drawing listeners in with each passing track.

One standout moment is the anthemic "Dancing Like a Gun," where Foxx's voice soars over thunderous drums and sparkling keyboards, creating a sense of exhilaration that is impossible to resist. It's a track that demands to be played at maximum volume, with its infectious hooks and unforgettable chorus.

But it's not all high energy bangers on "The Golden Section." Foxx also explores more subdued sonic territories on tracks like "Morning Glory" and "Someone." These moments of introspection add depth and nuance to the album, showing that Foxx is a master of both high-energy pop and heartfelt balladry.

Overall, "The Golden Section" is a timeless classic that solidifies John Foxx's status as a pioneer of the synth-pop genre. With its lush production, heartfelt lyrics, and infectious melodies, this album is a must-listen for fans of electronic music. Foxx's unique blend of retro-futurism and avant-garde sensibilities make this album a true gem in his discography.
