Electro-pop duo La Roux have mixed the latest album in the Renaissance mix series, Sidetracked.
And as you would expect, Elly Jackson and Ben Langmaid's selections are heavy on the 80s synth influences, as well as some more recent fare from the likes of Fever Ray and Elly's own mix of I Blame Coco, the outfit centred around Sting's daughter Coco Sumner.
Here's the tracklisting:
Japan – I Second That Emotion
Heaven 17 – Come Live With Me
Joyce Sims – (You Are My) All And All
Hally & Kongo Band – Afrikan Man
Fever Ray – When I Grow Up (D. Lissvik Version)
Doris Troy – Just One Look
Freur – Doot Doot
Jam Crew – Exotic Nations
Ellis, Beggs & Howard – Big Bubbles, No Troubles
Fox The Fox – Precious Little Diamond
Tears For Fears – Suffer The Children
Blancmange – What’s Your Problem
I Blame Coco – Self Machine (Coconut Candy "No Need For Plastic Palm Trees" Elly Jackson Remix)
Paul Haig – Big Blue World
Kavinsky – Testarossa Autodrive (SebastiAn Remix)
La Roux – Under My Thumb

The album is out on July 26 and follows Andy Butler of Hercules and Love Affair's excursion for the series.
