And here is the album on Bandcamp.

In the early 1980s, Dirk Da Davo was a driving force in the Belgian (and European) electronic music scene with his initial project, The Neon Judgement. From the late 1980s onward, he started to diversify, beginning with the release of a solo EP, “Where Even Angels Fall,” and later reinventing himself as Neon Electronics while also establishing a record label (Dancedelic-D). Nowadays, having relocated to Spain, he collaborates with Mexican bass and slide guitarist Sanchez (under the DD Sanchez moniker) and Jean-Marie Aerts (under the DDDJMX alias).

This retrospective album provides a glimpse into his work, spanning from the early solo sessions of the 80s to present-day material.

Why we ask

Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.
