EP223: Michael Mertens and Ralf Dorper / Propaganda

Electronically Yours with Martyn Ware

Today’s episode of Electronically Yours features two of Martyn’s oldest friends – Michael Mertens and Ralf Dorper from Propaganda, famous for a string of ’80s hits that include “Dr. Mabuse,” “Duel,” and “p:Machinery.” And their alliance with producer Trevor Horn. The classic lineup split in 1987 amid legal disputes with their label ZTT.

At last they have some excellent new material, featuring a new lead singer, Thunder Bae!

Ladies and gentlemen, meet the enduring talent of Propaganda.
