Yazoo is Alison Moyet and Vincent John Martin (Clark) who brought an innovative synth-pop style during the early 80’s. Their project titled “Upstairs At Eric’s” was a new sound for 1982 and made this duo a part of dance music history. “Don’t Go” is from this project and one of the pieces which lay out a classic organ-like feel that is haunting and eerie to place in one's imagination. Alison Moyet is the match for this powerful synthetic sound as her vocals become just as intense in a roaring approach. Each of their numbers becomes a mark with these qualities. The eighties bring on a face with music as this when the creative move to reshape dance music is the focus.
I have taken the 12” vocal and acapella of “Don’t Go” and reshaped the piece for this ReStructure Mix. There is a use of the verse again in a new way to keep them upfront where they belong and some new breaks to give this classic another spin.
