• Propaganda’s classic 1985 debut album A Secret Wish is reissued as black vinyl LP featuring a brand new stereo mix, by David Kosten.

  Formed in Dsseldorf in 1982, Propaganda signed with ZTT Records in 1983 and released their first single ‘Dr Mabuse’ in 1984. The album was written by Mertens and Drper and received considerable critical acclaim when released in early July 1985 and peaked at #16 on the UK Albums Chart.

  Other singles from A Secret Wish include ‘Duel’, which reached #21 in the UK singles chart and ‘p:Machinery’ which was issued a month after the album’s original release.

  The album was rebuilt from the multi-track tapes by David Kosten who says “I bought A Secret Wish on the day it was released in 1985 I still remember playing the vinyl and having a wonderful kind of out-of-body experience on hearing Jewel for the first time. This was music to be immersed in and inspired by, with vast creative ambition and endless sonic bravery”.
