This week, to celebrate Extended Play number 242, we get into camouflage gear for a total blitz on Belgian electronic propaganda mongers Front 242, purveyors of fine Electronic Body Music. First in, first out…
As an extra warm-up for Extended Play, we took the controls on the Paradigm Shift, the brilliant program immediately preceding EP, so our playlist is a double-headed banger!
