Una nuova doppia compilazione a celebrare una delle storie musicali più affascinanti di sempre quella cioè della Factory Records. ‘FAC.DANCE’ “covers the imprint’s early years, from 1982-87, and the wide range of musical genres tackled during that time period, from the “mutant funk” of Blurt to the dancey post-punk leanings of A Certain Ration and Section 25. The album also expressly documents Factory’s strong links and cross-pollination with New York’s 1980s club culture, as New Order joined forces with producer Arthur Baker, fresh from his pioneering electro work with Afrika Bambaataa, and acts like Quando Quango and Sweet Sensation’s Marcel King enlisted NY remixer Mark Kamins for tough-edged club treatments”. L’imperdibile documento sarà fuori l’11 ottobre via Strut Records in doppio CD con un’aggiunta bonus in MP3 di brani di Minny Pops, Kalima e Royal Family & the Poor. Il booklet riporta tutte le copertine originali in 12″.
