Info:

Hercules And Love Affair Ð The Name Itself Combines Images Of Strength And Vulnerability, Masculinity And Femininity, As Well As A Classic Disco Troupe. Their Music On Their Self-titled Album Debut Followed Suit. Strident Beats But Sweetness At The Core. Music With A Plan Of Attack But An Identity As Fluid As That Of Its Creators. A Gloriously Burnished Fusion Of Three Decades Of Dance, From Disco To House, Acid To Synth-pop, Derrick May To Giorgio Moroder (and Lets Not Forget Yazoo), But Sounding Like No Other Dance Record Before Ð Or Since. And Now Theyve Gone And Done It Again. The Troupes Second Album Blue Songs Represents The Best That Dance Music Can Get Ð Still Bursting With Freshness While In Touch With Its Roots. As Mainman Andy Butler Says, >its A Softer Record In Some Ways, And At Other Moments A More Aggressive Record Too.< The Album Also Reveals More About His World And His Songwriting, Resulting In A More Honest, And Yet More Universal, Record
