CROCODILE TEARS (RSD RELEASE)

TRACKLIST:A. Crocodile Tears (vocal version) B. Crocodile Tears (instrumental version) INFO Music Mania is proud to present the next instalment in their Reprise series. Following the highly sought after classic ˜Elle et Moi™ (MMR001), comes the blissful Belgian synth pop anthem ˜Crocodile Tears™ (MMR002). The track was one of the first singles of Kuruki, the minimal wave project spearheaded by Ghent-based musician Gerry D'Haeyer and Alain Bureau (Sally Joy). In an age of electronic sequenced experimentation, the band managed to find a distinctive sound that easily puts them between the likes of Telex. The original ep ˜Such A Liar™ was released in 1981 and clearly echoes the new wave of its time. The scenes described by vocalist Sally Joy as well as the melancholic keys of the main track ˜Crocodile Tears™ breathe tristesse. Nevertheless, it has a playful sound full of catchy synths. A dualism between such beauty and melancholy: this track was undeniably made in Belgium in the eighties, but should also appeal to lovers of Italo Disco. Be aware: for their second reprise Music Mania managed to include an exclusive instrumental version of this Belgitude. Even more synths for your listening pleasure.
