A complete and previously unreleased 1983 song. Sampling The Blast Furnace has its roots in an unrealised project called The Partnership. This track features Andy McCluskey on vocals and was written by Brett Wickens, better known as a design associate of Peter Saville. It also features Martha Ladly and was produced by William Orbit.

The track has only been made available as a sound file via the OMD Website here: Sampling The Blast Furnace

 

Brett Wickens is probably better known for his design work with Peter Saville on Architecture And Morality.

Martha Ladly had been part of DinDisc outfit Martha And The Muffins and had also embarked on a brief solo career before working as a designer herself. She is probably better known in OMD circles for suggesting the titles for Architecture And Morality and Tesla Girls.

William Orbit was also responsible for a special remix of Dreaming released on a 10" format in 1988.
