Wolfgang Flür’s Birmingham (Imppu Remix)

In February a few days before my birthday I received an email from Herr Wolfgang Flür, asking if I would like to make a remix of his brand new track Birmingham, co-written and produced by Peter Duggal.

And what guest stars! Birmingham also features Claudia Brücken and Peter Hook. I grew up listening to New Order ever since seeing the Blue Monday -88 video on grainy VHS and after discovering Propaganda about a decade ago A Secret Wish instantly became one of my favourite albums. Being able to listen to Claudia’s vocals and Hooky’s trademark bass lines in my studio I felt the need to pinch myself every few minutes 😀

I wanted Hooky to step into the spotlight and give the track a New Order-y disco flavour, and also bring a bit of the pop sensibility of Duran Duran, who happen to be my favourite band out of Birmingham❤️

Be aware that the my remix is currently available ONLY on this limited cd, so better act and order now:

Collaboration with Sanes Lidger

I provide guest vocals for Sanes Lidger’s new song and video Against the Irrelevancy. A very synthtastic piece of pop art.

Pleasure Lane (Imppu Remix) is out

He who once was a robot in Kraftwerk, Wolfgang Flür’s Pleasure Lane (Imppu Remix) has been released digitally and physically on the Eloquence Expanded album by SFE Records. Originally the winner of a remix contest held by Electronic Sound magazine, Pleasure Lane features silky vocals by Miriam Suarez and I added a bit of my own singing to create a kind of duet.

I Think Your Boyfriend is Remixed

Acclaimed single I Think Your Boyfriend is Gay has been given remix treatment and the resulting EP is now available digitally everywhere. Lifting Peaks Club Mix gives the track a pumping house flavor, and Imppu provides two mixes: an 80’s 12-inch style Extended Mix and a floating “robot yoga” Ambient Mix.

Single release!

Today’s the day!

I Think Your Boyfriend is Gay featuring Stephen Paul Taylor is released in all major streaming services. High quality download is available to buy in bandcamp.  The track has already been regarded as “pure gold to friends of 1980’s pop” by the Finnish paper Rumba, and “not a soulless pastiche, but standing gloriously on its own in its glittery boots” by Mika Roth at desibeli.net.

Go get it and fool around every day!
