Capturing the soaring sound and emotional intensity of classic new-wave pop circa 1985, Los Angeles’ Basic Elements are premiering today their lyric video for “Lucky.” The song is described as being written in the ’80s but with modern production courtesy of Ed Buller (Suede, Pulp, Psychedelic Furs).
Following “Lucky,” Basic Elements will release the rest of the Buller-produced songs over the course of 2021, building to the full release which will be pressed on collectible vinyl. It’s not often you get to discover new music from the ‘80s but Basic Elements achieves just that. Each song delivers a euphoric mix of nostalgia for original fans of Post-Punk/New Wave, and an exciting sense of discovery for the next generation finding the band on streaming platforms.
