Track Of The Day: Majic 12 - The Last Battle Pts 1 & 2 (Beau Monde)


A great piece of old school electro, lost in the winds of time. Beau Monde was one of those peripheral labels which dabbled in a genre that, when I was buying a lot of music back in the mid nineties, was peripheral to most of it. I have always loved electro though, and was very susceptible to boutique labels specialising in, what was at the time something that was already in danger of being forgotten. Except by the geeks. And thank god for them because were would we be otherwise. Now I know nothing about Majic 12, except that he was also known as Ultra Modern Art, Lexx & Uriel, all nom de plumes that he also produced as for Beau Monde. His real name is Scott Edward Hodgson and he’s made loads of ace music, a lot of which should be snaffled up while it’s not too pricey on the ‘cogs. Anyway, get your Adidas trackies on, Kangol your tete and start those headspins.
