Strap yourself in, it’s going to be a bumpy ride. We start with Shock, everyone’s favourite New Romantic robot dancers (a hotly contested accolade), Family Fodder at their most delightful, and finally some more of the magnificent Danielle Dax. I went to her flat once, remind me to tell you about it someday. Saint Etienne spook it up for Peter Thomas and John Foxx’s masterpiece The Garden simply dares you not to love it. Dares you.
