    Standing somewhere between the sounds of early 80s disco club land, electro-funk and synth-pop, Cloud’s ‘Visions’ session was a hidden gem amongst the tape archives of producer Alan Osbourne until now. On 12” for the first time, this single features four versions mixed by Sean P. from the original 1983 multi-track recording.
