This very fair priced 4CD BOX-SET contains the first 3 albums, that appeared on the German Strange Ways Records label (Wolfsheim, Beborn Beton, Goethe Erben, Carlos Peròn…) in completely remastered quality:
featuring selected Bonusmaterial from the respective singles on Strange Ways.
De/Vision’s debut album ‘World without End’ in 1994 was following a number of self-produced singles and tapes and also features the first single ‘Try to Forget’ on Strangeways (1993). The album was an instant success in the scene and also included the single ‘Dinner without Grace’, released after the album.
The new remastered Version in this box features 5 bonus-tracks, taken from the singles ‘Try to forget’ and ‘Dinner without Grace’. It was with the following singles ‘Love me Again’, ‘Blue Moon’ and ‘Dress me when I bleed’ and the album ‘Unversed in Love’ (1995) that the band found their big breakthrough in Germany and all over Europe. Frankly: I firmly believe that ‘Unversed in Love’ is still one of the best synth-pop albums of all times and even after 18 years I don’t get tired of listening to it.
'Fairyland?’ was the last album released on Strangeways and featured the singles ‘Sweet Life’ and ‘I regret’ – both highly successful, but not really ‘my cup of tea’… The remastered version of ‘Fairyland?’ comes with 5 remixes, taken from the two singles.
The Bonus-CD features additional tracks, taken from various singles and EPs released in the Strange Ways Years and all deleted for many years. The Box thus features a total of 52 Tracks, many of them unavailable for very long, and at a very fair price! A MUST not only for fans of De/Vision but all lovers of quality electropop!
