Relief - Original 1985 Danish SAM Records 8-track LP - Incl. Booklet

1985 Danish SAM Records 8-track LP - the first and quite breathtaking solo full length from Danish post punk-experimental-synth wave ikon - crystalline synth carpets and patterns to manifest pounding rhythms

'Martin Hall played all instruments on Relief “live” in the recording studio. Despite the sound on the record, there was no drum programming involved. The album was recorded only a few months after his mother’s suicide and the process turned out to be the most challenging he had embarked upon so far in his career.
The grand, high-tech’ish sound on the Relief record, combined with its epic, fairly bombastic lyrical contents, made the album one of Martin Hall’s most popular releases during the eighties and secured the artist a cult following in countries such as Germany and the Netherlands.
A highlight on the album remains the track “Resonance”, a song written during a stay in Cairo in 1984.'
