Amongst synthesizer fetishists and electro-funk enthusiasts, Rah Band's "Messages From The Stars" has long been a cherished record. It's also a rather unusual one; a British-made electro era record that combines the kind of cutting-edge electronic instrumentation and production techniques more frequently found on contemporaneous New York records (copious amounts of delay, extensive TR-808 and Linn drum use, and so on) with the eccentricity of post-punk era UK synth-pop. This reissue presents re-mastered versions of Hewson's three original versions, of which the trippy and extended "Long Wave Mix" and more percussive, delay-laden "Astro Mix" (effectively the club-focused dub) are the standouts. If you don't already own a copy, get this quick.
