Originally recorded in the early 1980s and reissued by the esteemed Music From Memory, Perfect Stranger is a stunning collection of tracks by Dutch artist Richenel — blending leftf ield pop, electro-funk, new wave, and soulful vocals into a deeply unique sound. With roots in Amsterdam’s underground art and fashion scenes, Richenel (a.k.a. Hubertus Richenel Baars) delivers music that’s both intimate and experimental. Lo-fi drum machines meet haunting synths and powerful, androgynous vocals — creating a mood that’s dreamy, sensual, and unlike anything else from the era. Show more
