German electro-pop duo Starcluster first joined forces with iconic former Soft Cell singer Marc Almond way back in 2008. This collaborative debut album, then, has been a long time in the making. It is, though, something of a gem. Produced entirely using vintage "vintage synthesizers and drumcomputers", the presence of Almond's distinctive vocals and lyrics gives it a genuinely authentic, 1980s feel. Put simply, it sounds like a long lost Soft Cell album, which is no bad thing in our book. Almond is in fine form throughout, while Starcluster's backing tracks rise, fall, throb and shimmer in all of the right places.
