Pleasures of Electricity

Digitally remastered and expanded two CD edition of this 2001 album from British Electronic pioneer John Foxx, his second album with collaborator Louis Gordon. To quote the album's original press release: ''Taking a cue from Kraftwerk, one of Foxx's most obvious stylistic touchstones, Pleasures... is a streamlined monorail of lock-step computer-generated beats and wiry synthesizer melodies with an equal emphasis on dark, atmospherics and energized, danceable rhythms.'' Disc One of this special expanded re-issue features a version of the album, newly remixed in 2009 by John Foxx. Disc Two features the original mix of the album plus two previously unreleased bonus tracks. Edsel. 2009.
