Remastered and newly mixed by band members Dan Lacksman and Michel Moers, Telex release ‘Wonderful World’.
The record was originally released in 1984 as the band’s fourth studio album and saw Telex continuing to push a state-of-the art sound.
This is released alongside ‘Looney Tunes’ and ‘How Do You Dance?’ on vinyl, following the individual release of ‘Looking For Saint-Tropez’, ‘Neurovision’ and ‘Sex’ and the now sold-out coloured vinyl box set.
The Belgian synthpop trio - Marc Moulin (1942-2008), Lacksman and Michel Moers - launched in Brussels in 1978 and, as one of only a handful of synthpop pioneers at the time, helped bring electronic pop to the mainstream. Telex announced their retirement in 2008, following Moulin’s death, and in 2021 began a new partnership with Mute beginning with the release of ‘This Is Telex’.
Recent praise: “Telex were largely misunderstood during their time together in the late ‘70s and ‘80s, yet this boxset containing the arch Belgian synthpop trio’s six newly remastered albums suggests they deserve a closer listen.” - Uncut (8/10); “This release is a must for all synth music fans.” - Blitzed magazine; “a vital bridge between
Kraftwerk and arguably all subsequent EDM… New Beat’s ground zero.” - Classic Rock
Individual vinyl edition, using the original artwork and inner sleeve.
