We're also gonna dive deep into modern Italo with Mr. Fantasy, Daddy Squad, and Lindo Joe Rizzo in the mix before launching into the second hour fully with Sinister Retro Volume 3. But before we keep the music going, I want to give a big shout out to DJ Night J from Mixed Time Radio. He's one of our premier radio station partners for the brand new imaging and spots he produced for Simpop Symphony. Always keeping the show sounding fresh, modern, and massive every single week. So huge thanks for all the support and creativity behind the scenes to DJ NightJ at Mixed Time Radio. Let's do this right now in the mix. Let's get started with Heaven 17 and Temptation, the Andrew Ectum remix.
SPEAKER_05I tried to understand that certain feeling carved by another's hand. But it's too late to hesitate. We can't keep on living like this.
SPEAKER_04You've got to make me an offer, but cannot be ignored. So let's head for home now. Everything that I have is yours The first step to be by me. Every second down that can break the waves.

SPEAKER_04I'm in the hands of faith. I am myself over the wrong way now. I am myself.
SPEAKER_00You just heard a special mini-mix to kick things off, featuring the brand new Andre X and remix of Temptation by Heaven 17. Quick facts on Heaven 17, the group was formed by Martin Ware and Ian Craig Marsh, who were the original founding members of the Human League. They also split early due to creative differences, which led them to create Heaven 17, leading more into the role and political energy. And I'm gonna feature a three track from the five three, including a later thing. So let's head to roam and dive into the sound of the final feet with a three-track minimax right here on the function.
SPEAKER_03But emotions won't grow, and we're changing our ways, taking different roles that we're so cold. You still wear It's night shining with love. Yet birthday we can prove along. Oh my feelings exposed, and there's a taste in my mouth as desperation tastes hold just for something so good just can function. Cracks inside you still truth is hiding there But I don't care No stores, no sound, my head has spin around, tension on slow, ready to blow, blow Crash down, press down, losing control, lights out, nice let me go smooths out broke. Night is pulling you in as your skin Where do we begin? Nothing left to man pressure too high cutting like a lights up, lights out. Calling through a noise. I can find my voice. Rose are closing tight. One case in a body side. Two eyes staring cold inside shows fear as it turns out.
unknownUn homme dans une carrière.
SPEAKER_23Une balise quoi s'écoute Des yeux fixés froids. Entre de la peur se tourne pour se cacher.
SPEAKER_03Sans la pluie comme un été anglais En tant les notes d'une chanson lointaine Sortant de derrière ton posteur Espérant que la vie ne fut aussi longue fivering like an English stammer Hearing notes from a distance Stamming out from a backdrop poster life wouldn't be so dumb Fate Gray Fate Gray fate to gray face gray Fate Gray Fate Wow what a set from Matthias P out of Rome, Italy.
SPEAKER_00You can really hear that incredible variety in his sound from the Joy Division cover to a beautifully produced Atello-inspired track to that darker interpretation of Fade the Grey by Vassage. Absolutely fantastic stuff. And if you're looking for his music online, it's kind of scattered everywhere right now. So the album Ashes in the Rain is actually up on video. The singles are showing up on Spotify, and there are videos coming all over YouTube. And here's a fun fact for you. Eight years ago, the very first game I ever played here on Synflop Symphony was really regarded by Marshall. Pretty amazing how this journey keeps coming full circle.
