Retrowave / New Wave
Frankfurt am Main, Germany
Return of the Dynamic Duo
They did it before, and hopefully they will do it again. Luke Tangerine from Frankfurt am Main and Carlos Ucedda from Granada have teamed up another time. Recently, they have complemented each other’s skills and talents when they released the single I adore you. This time, the two artists from Germany and Spain undertake an even deeper dive into the Golden Age of Synth Pop. By using wit, delicacy, and sensuality, they have re-designed the evergreen You Spin Me (Like A Record) by Dead or Alive, originally released in 1984.
Releasing a cover version of such a great and famous tune can be deceitful since alomst everybody will immediately compare the new song to the original. But Luke Tangerine and Carlos Ucedda easily master this task, and they present a holistic re-invention of the classic. Staying true to the original on the one hand, and providing it with a modern twist, they serve past, present and future simultaneously.
