Great to know you're impressed! The Electronic Ensemble song was recorded at Smile studios, chorlton Manchester and was published by Radio Luxembourg's Lougviny music so became a powerplay and got released all over Europe. We thought the Sonovox vocals were rubbish and got Russant the duo to sing it and that was released only in the UK. This new version is done by scratch in Cubase and an excuse to have fun and put a dumb video together!

It's a great song, but will this style ever get back into fashion? Will this be a hit?!!

This is such a truly amazing track though I am slightly confused! Is this a remix of the Electronic Ensemble "It Happened Then" from 1980? And is the 1982 Russant single "It Happened Then" the same as the Electronic Ensemble track? Either way, all three tracks are amazing and I would love to put the tracks on a blog I contribute to called 'Overfitting Disco' - I think the tracks would go down so well with everybody - leave us a message if you can help at all with any MP3 that would be so cool!
