Data - Opera Electronica

Facts Digitally remastered and expanded edition. Georg Kajanus is a Norwegian composer, singer/songwriter and lyricist best known for writing the hits "Glass Of Champagne" and Girls Girls Girls" for his band Sailor. After the break-up of Sailor, Georg decided to experiment with electronic music and formed Data with vocalist's Frankie and Phil Boulter. One reviewer aptly said "Blending Italo-disc, Giorgio Moroder, ABBA and telex influences, Data befriended synthetic experimentation with melodic pop sensibility to great effect". The classically orientated title track of Data's first album released in 1981 was used as the theme music to the film "Towers Of Babel" which was nominated for a BAFTA award in 1982 and won the Silver Hugo Award for best short film at The Chicago International Film Festival the same year. Georg has digitally remastered the original album adding two bonus tracks.
