Description
Throbbing Gristles Chris Carter and Cosey Fanni Tuttis hugely popular mid-eighties Exotika album was originally released in 1987 by Play It Again Sam. It includes such Chris & Cosey classics as the crowd-pleasing BeatBeatBeat, the haunting ballad Dr. John (Sleeping Stephen), and the original version of their seminal title track Exotika, which was adopted as an electronica anthem, most notably on the GOA scene and in the US West and East Coast gay clubs of the later 1980s. This 2019 colored vinyl LP repress includes a glossy insert with historic photographs and press clippings.
Chris & Cosey have made a great dance record, but its their kind of dancing. No junk here. Theyre crazy enough to be sincere about their musical Pleasureland and they want to share their discovery. Come and feel the sound as though your life depends on it: if it were up to them, it would depend on it. Rockpool, 1987
Chris & Cosey beat most of 87s mainstream dance-floor contenders on their own territory of sheer pleasure, urged joy. BeatBeatBeat is extreme, a revelation. Ian Gittins (Melody Maker, 1987)
