SHREM'S FUTURE ANTHEMS: "STOP & GO" - The Galleria

The Galleria is back. Morgan Geist and Jessy Lanza's 1980's-flavoured side-project first caught our attention with their excellent "Calling Card/Mezzanine" EP back in 2015. I have recently selected it as one of the Top 100 Greatest EPs of the 2010's. The yellow edition of the project - "Stop & Go" is an ultimate and immediate retro dancefloor-focused synth-pop smash which would not sound out of place tucked between the greatest 80's Janet Jackson or D'Train singles. I am struggling to figure out if there was any other single released in 2019 which is more "up my street". Bring back the sequined shoulder pads, baby!
