I think its great they have done a song like this, it seems JJ has written most of the songs for this album? Bit Baz has developed them, they have a great rapport, I do really like Kraftwerk so I'm a happy bunny, Stranglers doing synth pop. :smt005 Lt Kudu.

Doesn't Thrown Away have a real bass guitar though?

Perhaps All Roads is fully electronic, I can't remember..

Waltzinblack yes of course, just a keyboard though no drums at all..

Yes, you can't include Thrown Away in the 'electronic' collection. It's a normal band arrangement.

Yep agreed..where Baz has developed for the better and improving some of DM tracks, he certainly improved White Stallion with his disco beat idea from JJs first acoustic version, which then went bananas by taking on a life of its own with full production including opera WOW! great stuff,i just cannot wait to hear White Stallion the full song in September along with Water and Last Man On The Moon,there's certainly alot to look forward to with Dave's last album.

I really like these preview vids more and more although it does spoil the first listen in September a bit imho. This song sounds like one of the more challenging and modern sounding things they've done since Written in Red.

As for these videos, I mostly enjoy our Louie in his Hawaii-esque shirt, built like many of us, chatting away about it all.

So, back to the main point… is Louis Nicastro the new keyboard player?
