And the first track of the night came from Andy Bell of Erasure, his brandy remake of Vanadu, originally performed by the legendary Olivia Newton John and Electric Light Orchestra back in 1980. Speaking of Andy Bell, that was such an underrated track when he came up with Claudia Brooken from Propaganda with Love One's Health off the fantastic electric blue album from 2017. Coming up next, it's time for our first mini mix of the night, and this one's extra special. We've got the very first remixes from the upcoming Tron Aries movie by Nine Inch Nails, a stunning new disco-infused remake of New Order of Blue Monday by DeFor, and Hedgehog Boys with Always on My Mind.
