Telex

My guests this week are Dan Lacksman and Michel Moers from legendary group Telex.

Formed in Brussels back in 1978, the group are considered to be one of the first ever synth-pop acts.

We discuss the groups early days, the time they performed on iconic music show, Top Of The Pops and what is was like representing Belgian for Eurovision 1980.

A much-anticipated box set, featuring six Telex albums, lovingly remixed and remastered by Dan and Michel, is released via Mute records on April 14th. You can pre-order it here: https://mutebank.co.uk/collections/telex
