Review: With this four-track salvo, Giant Cuts has decided to try something different. While previous releases have largely focused on disco and boogie, 80s New Wave Classics sees the label's mysterious re-editors take their scalpel to a quartet of skewed synth-pop classics. First up is "She Calls Me", a joyous fusion of baggy piano lines, rubbery fretless bass, chiming synthesizer melodies and tongue-in-cheek vocals, before "My Precious" delivers a heady trip into sharp electro bass, AOR guitars and sleazy vocal breakdowns. "Make A Change" is a vests-off interpretation of a thrusting, Bobby Orlando style Italo-disco chugger, while "2 Pies" expertly tiptoes the fine line between eccentric 12" remixes and club-focused synth-pop dubs.
