Blancmange, Girl Friend, I Love DJs
British synthpop band, Blancmange, who came to prominence throughout the ‘80s, returned in 2011 to great acclaim with their fourth studio release. Now, with their fifth album ‘Semi Detached’, fresh out, which demonstrates a darker, edgier side of the band compared to their previous records, Blancmange are taking their new material to the stage.
‘Instantly memorable melodies. Wonderful pop songs. Music Pop Art has seldom been as good.’ – MOJO Magazine ****
Started in 2014 and inspired by the classic ‘80s electronic pop of Roxy Music, Soft Cell and Japan, Manchester band Girl Friend found a sound all of their own.
The band’s songs channel the muse of lead singer Amory who states “I found it interesting to juxtapose the dour moods and fatal flaws, with almost clichéd views on style and glamour. To dress the misery in something beautiful. The experiences of sexual frustration and amorous longing are portrayed with a graceful exterior.”
Since launching in 2007 I love the 80s vs I love the 90s has become the ultimate retro party in London with sell out parties on a weekly basis. It has appeared in many press features including The Guardian, The Evening Standard and Time Out and continues to be one of the biggest and longest running parties in London
