REISSUE: “L'Amour Toujours” by Telex – Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera





REISSUE: “L'Amour Toujours” by Telex – Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera Telex is Dan Lacksman, Marc Moulin and Michel Moers – an innovative synth-pop ensemble whose 1984 project “Wonderful World” featured the single “L'Amour Toujours” which translates to “love always” and play out in a strange mixture of jittery sequencers and romantic vocoder verses. It was a big underground club hit and displayed the elements of early techno and influence of early groups like Kraftwerk. I have taken scenes from the 1981 romantic comedy “Heartbeeps” with Andy Kaufman and Bernadette Peters to play out the robotic feel matching both the dance track and the films outline. It is a dreamy scenic edit for the song and makes the film feel as though it belongs appropriately. The film was directed by Allan Arkush Featuring scenes from “Heartbeeps” – RENT THE DVD!
