Propaganda: Steve Howe

[Gilly Goodness]

ZTT + German funsters + Steve Howe = 80's classic.

Went down this rabbit hole today, discoverin' our boy had helped these electro-industrial-pop merchants on a song called The Murder of Love. 640k views on youtube. Not too shabby.

Gotta say it's a gorgeous slab of 80's hi-end production. 1 part Spandau Ballet. 1 part FGTH. 1 part the Human League. Quite dreamy. Throbbin' bass and very jazzy stuff from our man Steve goin' all Al Di Mielo. Cool track and could see the kids at Ibiza dancin' to this even now.

Never heard it before. Produced by Steve Lipson.
Paul Morley married one of the girls. Band also did Dr Mabuse.

I remember Duel, but nothing else. I see they were on ZTT which explains the Howe connection - via Horn.

Duel is great. P-Machinery also.
This? Meh. Steve’s solo is the best thing about it.

I saw xPropaganda - the two "girls" plus Stephen Lipson - live last night. Good stuff.

The new xpropaganda album is awesome.

"Murder is love, the Man without a shadow offers you the World, power,force,motion and Drive."

Back in he 80's. As a pretentious Art school student, dismissive of Duran Duran and Spandau Ballet. Imbibed the ZTT
manifestoes, quotes from French critical theorists, Derrida,Forcault. It sounded like the future. In reality, lookin' back it was typical
Psuedo Intellectualism favoured by Antipodean Tertiary Education professors.
Anythin' continental must be the truth. If such a thing exists at all? hehhehehehehehhhehheeeeee

Anyhoo. Great job guys who did the video. They captured the zeitgiest.
