What an electro-pleasure.
This label always amaze me.


Would love to hear ANY from the catalog! (other than the ones I already have which are 202,204,206,211,217 probably all from Retro, and available for a re-up if someone's interested).

Thank you very much Retro.

Thanks Retro, I only had SPEC 211 from LMTH303

Very eager to hear more Spectrum and will keep an eye on this thread

@Greta I'll take you up on your offer, whenever you find the time!

Many thanks and have a nice Sunday

SPEC206 - El Gringo - has a pretty hefty skip in it. This tune, however, is so mesmerizingly beautiful and haunting at the same time I had to stitch that song back together. Just like a skin transplant, I took the first part of the song which has the least difference in key/keystrike/melody/synth backdrop compared to the other possible sections and placed it where the skipped part used to be, together with a bit of a quick fade-out for an easy "hand-over" to the actual track.

I know this is against the rules of many people when it comes to archiving as I altered the source, and I do understand that in this special case. However, if someone from the WWW is accessing this and rather wants to have a patched-up track instead of an unaltered one with a skip that does not only interrupt the song and disrupt the rhythm and pace of this awesome bit of music but also makes it shorter than it actually is (about 1 second!!! :D), I have my rehab'd file attached here. Unfortunately, I could not completely hand over the transplanted part back to the main track, so there is a little "scar" at 1:06. I tried to let the parts "handshake" (by one fading in while the other fades out), however, the main track needed to be "dominant" due to the fact they go out of sync after a bit of playtime which leads to having two of those snare drums playing within a split second creating an even worse echo effect. Decide for yourself. When I put both the long transplant and the source on top of each other, they'd go out of sync anways after a couple of seconds, so that is the best I could do.

Stitched-up "El Gingro" (https://www.mediafire.com/file/ps3r5qok9ak42j9/05_-_El_Gringo_%255BStitched_up%255D.flac/file)


No other changes than those cuts have been done. All other "weird things" going on (e.g. at 0:28 which sounds like a clumsy cutting as well as at 1:08 and 1:11) are placebo and happen in the source file like that too.

The B-Side 'Mindbending' sounds like the soundtrack to a mid-80's latter day video nasty from Italy or Spain that is probably Jess Franco in a nom de plume about ritualistic murders at an exclusive girls' school for the daughters of the rich and famous.  Could it be the randy gardener, the young handsome repressed priest, the tyrant Governess or someone else unknown....?
