Nancy Nova, the queen of 80s underground disco, is back in a big way with, Tour De Force, a 16-track masterpiece that feels like a time machine to the golden era of electro. From the moment the first track ‘Heavens You Know’ drops, listeners are catapulted into a dazzling world of pulsating synths and heart-thumping basslines. Nancy’s unmistakable voice, shimmering with passion and nostalgia, breathes life into each song, reminding us why she was a mainstay in the disco scene.
The album is a treasure trove for fans of vintage beats, offering a mix of new material and revamped takes on her classics. Nancy’s covers of ‘The Winner Takes It All’ and ‘Wuthering Heights’ deserve special mention—these reinterpretations add an 80s synth-pop twist that both honors the originals and makes them unmistakably hers. The balance of drama and danceability is a hallmark of the album, making it a perfect listen for both diehard fans and newcomers alike.
Nancy’s lyricism shines throughout, especially in tracks like ‘Lily’, an anti-war anthem that’s both poignant and powerful, and ‘Lifeline’, a haunting ballad that lingers long after the final note. ‘Copy’ takes listeners on a darker, futuristic journey, highlighting her versatility as an artist. The production, helmed by Kingbones, is a revelation—sharp, sophisticated, and brimming with retro authenticity.
What makes, Tour De Force, particularly special is its emotional core. Nancy doesn’t just revisit her past; she reimagines it, creating an album that feels both nostalgic and refreshingly new. The ‘Megasong’ and ‘Force Megamix’ are irresistible closing tracks, perfect for dancefloors around the globe.
With plans for a live tour next summer, Tour De Force, is set to be more than just an album—it’s a movement. Nancy Nova proves she’s not just a relic of the 80s but a force to be reckoned with in today’s electro landscape.
