From the UK Financial Times:

When it was released in 1977, Brian Eno and David Bowie were working together in Berlin. Eno told Bowie to stop what he was doing and listen. “This is it, look no further,” Eno said. “This single is going to change the sound of club music for the next 15 years.” This was an understatement.

 

Hey, nice to finally talk after lurking for ages! This track is the root ofelectronic music, don't get me wrong there's so many others who shaped where we are today but this track in particular gavedance music, for want of a better term - hedonism - and without that feeling house, techno, whatever you want to call wouldn't be what it is today or tomorrow that feeling of abandonment is the core of everything. Am I wrong?
