Some songs comes along that you seem to know the moment you hear it, even though it's for the first time. In the case of Spark The Universe it had exactly that impact. A mixture of late-60s psychedelic homage, early 80s new wave, white boy soul, plus a good dose of dub, all wrapped around a killer hook and super tight production and a hit was surely made. 

The fact there are many deserving records that don't become a hit doesn't mean some are better than others and in fact, the joy in collecting and reissuing is finding amazing songs and bringing them back. 

Increasingly heard in the sets of the more discerning DJs, Spark The Universe has become a cult play and with second hand prices now in three figures, a reissue is timely. As the label oft says, no one owns this music other than the writers, musicians and producers and their craft deserves to be appreciated.

Before going on to carve a successful career in 'electronica' project, Euphoria, Toronto's Ken Ramm had shown his considerable writing and playing ability with the 1981 debut LP Dragon and this 1983 follow up, known simply as Ramm. 

Coming together through a meeting with a then relatively unknown producer, Daniel Lanois, via a mutual interest in tape loops and dubbing, it was the suggestion to bring in local vocalist Lorraine Segato that Ramm formed. 

Recording at Lanois' Grant Avenue Studios, his interest in mixing past and present technology, with multiple digital delay units, harmonizers and other effect processors allowed Ramm and Lanois to explore using the studio as an instrument alongside real musicianship. 

Backwards guitars, tremolo bar dives and guitar harmonics are incorporated with the vocals and percussion to perfection. With a 'Dance' and alternative 'Dub', the song's hypnotic and dreamy feel superimposed over beats pin-pointed to the later Euphoria project and with the addition of a latter day 'Discomix', from the labels' own Chuggy, Spark The Universe deserves it's place on contemporary dancefloors.

27th September 2010 sees the release of Yazoo's Reconnected Live on double CD.

Reconnected Live documents one of pop's most anticipated tours: in summer 2008 Vince Clarke and Alison Moyet reunited for the first time in over 25 years.

The Times said: "Clarke has unobtrusively retooled the band's music for the digital age, making their vintage 1980s synthesizer ditties sound crisp, fluid and timeless" while The Guardian noted, "Yazoo's first tour in 26 years finds the chemistry behind their smash hits unchanged."

Produced by Yazoo, recorded by Martin Hildred and mixed by Vince Clarke, Reconnected Live features classic tracks from Yazoo's albums 'Upstairs At Eric's' and 'You And Me Both', including Only You, Don't Go and Situation plus tracks such as Nobody's Diary, performed live for the first time ever.

"As they breathed new life into their short but immaculate back catalogue, Clarke the glacial controller, Moyet the bringer of warmth, their pioneering contribution to pop music could be heard in every song." - Daily Telegraph

"Performing on a minimalist stage of high-tech steel and neon, Moyet slipped easily into turbo-throated blues-diva mode" - The Times

"Belgian Italo-influenced label largely specialised in high quality reissues (often with new mixes or edits) thus far, with the occasional exception. Despite this, because of its judicious choices, some of the releases seem more current than they actually are, which perhaps says more about the climate we’re currently in. Among the reissues are the highly collectible ‘Cant Be Serious’ by Ginny and the Loft classic OZO’s ‘Anambra’." - Djhistory.com
