On the 15th of October in the year 1999, the German synthpop duo Second Decay (Andreas Sippel and Christian Purwien) made a show at the legendary club Zwischenfall in Bochum/Germany. This recording from the mixing desk has now been remastered and FINALLY it see the light of day. This is Second Decay at their absolute peak performing ALL the hits and also their very appreciated covers of the Rheingold classic "Das Steht Ihr Gut" and Patrick Hernandez classic discohit "Born To Be Alive". This amazing live recording should be considered as a massive tribute to one of the best synthpop/NDW acts to ever come out of Germany. A must in every essential synthpop collection. And a fantastic time documentation.
