Description:
This lavish 5CD box set, "Requiem - The London Boys Story", celebrates the complete legacy of the London Boys, the Euro-dance/pop duo who lit up the late 1980s and early 1990s with their irresistible blend of Hi-NRG beats, catchy melodies and heartfelt pop songwriting. Across five carefully curated discs, you'll find a comprehensive collection of their key singles, extended mixes, album cuts and sought-after rarities, offering an immersive journey through their signature sound: driving electronic rhythms, rich vocal harmonies and instantly memorable choruses made for the dancefloor and radio alike. Housed in an attractive box with detailed annotations and a strong focus on musical content, this set is designed both for long-time fans and for listeners discovering the London Boys for the first time.
As a band, London Boys became synonymous with euphoric Euro-dance pop at the turn of the 1990s. Fronted by their distinctive vocal style and uplifting, positive lyrics, they carved out a recognizable identity in a competitive dance-pop landscape. Their tracks combined club-ready production with a strong melodic sense, allowing them to appeal to DJs and mainstream audiences alike. The 5CD format offers the space to trace this artistic arc in depth, from high-energy floor-fillers to more melodic and emotional titles that revealed their versatility.

Llego rapido el contenido es estupendo y la presentacion, pero la calidad de sonido no me convence, no es tan nitido ni puro como un cd original y si es remasterizado no se ve esa gran calidad
