Beat Club, The – Paris
A remastered CD edition of the first album by Miami electro duo The Beat Club (Ony Rodriguez and Mireya Valls), best known for their club favourite Security.
Originally issued by Electrobeat in 1994, Paris explores a variety of styles including electro, trance, Miami Bass and synthpop, notably on singles Security, Dreams Were Made To Be Broken, X and Transamerica.
Reflecting Beat Club’s early association with cult Manchester imprint Robs Records, the album also includes remixes by Martin Moscrop of A Certain Ratio and Bernard Sumner of New Order, whose vocal rework of Security is reminiscent of Electronic.
This 2010 edition on LTM includes 5 bonus tracks, new artwork and liner notes. Beat Club also appear on the compilation Auteur Labels: Robs Records
