Wall of Sound label boss Mark Jones hosts a Bank Holiday new romantic special featuring Visage frontman Steve Strange and a guest mix from former Blitz club DJ Rusty Egan.

Electronic music enthusiast and Wall Of Sound label boss Mark Jones hosts a special bank holiday edition of 'Back To The Phuture', celebrating the new romantic sounds from the 1980s to the present day. Alongside classic tunes from Ultravox and the Human League and new music from Hurts and Ali Love, Mark talks to Visage frontman and club promoter Steve Strange about the part he played in the movement. Best known for their hit single 'Fade To Grey', Visage have been celebrating their 30th anniversary with a brand new 'Best Of' compilation and series of new cutting edge club mixes. In this in depth interview, Steve tells Mark about founding of the infamous Blitz club, appearing in David Bowie's video for Ashes to Ashes and putting on gigs by Depeche Mode and Spandau Ballet at the Camden Palace, as well as picking tracks which inspired him from T Rex, Grace Jones and Roxy Music. In the final hour of the show, there's a guest mix from Steve's former partner in Visage and Blitz club DJ Rusty Egan including music from Gary Numan, Kraftwerk and Duran Duran.
