Re-issue of US minimal synth 12" from 1983 - composer Aret Madilian performs now under the highly acclaimed Deleyaman moniker.
VOGUE was formed by American musician and multi-instrumentalist Aret Madilian, back then equipping himself with Moog and Roland synthesisers, plus a Boss DR-55 and a piano, and recording two of those ultimate dark minimal synth hits, "Sahara" and "Shattered Peace", think of Das Kabinette, Those Attractive Magnets, Inertia, Ceramic Hello, just to name a few. Aret added Julie Kubat (vocals and lyrics) and Teresa Kubat (vocals) to the line-up and self-released both tracks on their sole release, the "Sahara" 12" in 1983 (Aret Records, Ar 42266). Ultra rare and very expensive in its original form (if you got the money, then you can still buy resurrected original copies from TTO Records on Discogs), Anna Logue Records now offers this gem for small money, with a beautifully remixed artwork, and carefully remastered. Dark analogue synth bliss, not to be missed!
Since 2000, Aret records and performs under the name Delayaman, a highly acclaimed multi-instrumentalist group often compared with Dead Can Dance, Cocteau Twins. They have just released their sixth album, check them out!
