Mitte der 1980er gab es die Mode des ‘Remixalbums’, bei dem ein komplettes Album im ‘Dance-Dub-Gewand’ neu gemischt wurde – wie etwa ‘Love And Dancing’ von Human League oder ‘Non-Stop Ecstatic Dancing’
von Soft Cell.
Das ZTT-Label und Propaganda waren prädestiniert für dieses Mini-Genre und veröffentlichten 1985 – basierend auf das Erfolgsalbum ‘The Secret Wish’ – ihr Werk ‘Wishful Thinkung’, welches zugleich die neue Messlatte in Sachen Remixalbum darstellte. Das Ergebnis ist ein selbstständiges Album, mit Tracks wie ‘Abuse’, ‘Machined’ oder ‘Jewelled’, die ihren Vorlagen (‘Dr Mabuse’, ‘p: Machinery’ und ‘Duel’) ganz neue Erkenntnisse abringen.
Neben dem digital neu gemasterten Originalalbum enthält diese Deluxe Version sechs Bonustracks, darunter 5 Tracks, die bislang nie erschienen sind: ‘Strength To Dream (Outtake 04.02.84)’, ‘The Murder Of Love (Beta Wraparound)’, ‘Dr Mabuse (Outtake 24.04.85)’, ‘Frozen Faces (A Secret Sense Of Rhythm)’ und ‘p: Machinery (The Voiceless Beta Wraparound Edit)’.
"These ’disturbdances’ are a perfect free-form accompaniment to A Secret Wish (SALVOMDCD14). Proof that Propaganda are capable of divine interpretations and, if you’ve not already succumbed to their complex beauty, this could serve as an inspired introduction. These remix artefacts normally aren’t worth the plastic they’re engraved on but this limited edition is a real collector’s item. Call it a private indulgence.’ Melody Maker
Propaganda’s biggest hit, ’Duel’, is well known for its freaky alter ego, ’Jewel’. But less well known is this album, A Secret Wish’s disturbing counterpart, Wishful Thinking.
This refashioning of A Secret Wish into a whole new album is a definitive example of a lost art form, the ’remixalbum’, one of the formats and musical styles that made the middle of the 1980s quite different from any time before or since. Other classics of the genre had already been released by the time Wishful Thinking was created, with Soft Cell’s Non-Stop Ecstatic Dancing, The Human League’s Love and Dancing and Imagination’s Nightdubbing, all acclaimed pop-dub masterpieces, all appearing within a matter of months, all remixalbums (not remix albums) - full length, cohesive, brand new works, not compilations of disparate mixes.
Salvo is proud to reissue Wishful Thinking (as element 23), superbly remastered with six bonus tracks, five previously unreleased, and a 12-page booklet featuring rare photos and an excellent new essay from compiler Ian Peel.
