Virtual Reality 123/Charlotte 12” single

Big Stir Records

This is an old-fashioned style 12” single made for today, to mark the 1 year anniversary of their album Museum of Tomorrow.

These extended remixes make “Virtual Reality 123” sound like a mix of jangle pop and goth, “Charlotte” is 80s style goth. The album had been a concept album about sci-fi themes. The single carries this theme, but sounds a bit more ominous than the original versions.

So if you want to remember what 80s 12” single remixes sound like, want to revisit the album in a new way, or both, give these remixes a listen, then check out the album, which is really good too.
