The UK's
Hiem
(featuring
Bozzwell
, from
Suicide Recordings
fame) became world famous thanks to both their brilliant releases on Crosstown Rebels, and this is their debut on Eskimo, with the beautiful "Clubscene Popscene" anthem. Even better -- if possible -- is the
Justus Köhncke
remix on the flipside -- slightly darker, a bit more throbbing than the original, with vocals laid bare against some real snappy hand-claps. Completely pop, completely danceable.

finally get round to releasing their first full-length long player through the new Startalk International imprint. After 10 years together,
Bozz

Daft Punk
,
Roxy Music
,
John Cooper Clark
), they have produced an album that passes through lissom disco, electro and techno and all points in between. They boast a back catalog of hits under their belt for illustrious labels including Eskimo Recordings and Crosstown Rebels as well as front man Bozzwell's critically-lauded solo album
Bits & Pieces
released through Firm, even managing to scoop an award nomination for German music critics' record of the year.
Escape From Division Street
sees Hiem delivering a fresh, uncompromising and intelligent slant to electro-pop. Includes collaborations with artists such as
Phil Oakey
(
Human League
