Paul Thomas & Christian Burns - Enjoy The Silence

There’s been ‘Hero’s by the dozen, any number of ‘Angels’, likely hundreds of ‘Forevers’ and ‘Tonights’ … but when it comes to song titles, ‘Enjoy The Silence’ stands alone.

Even before you’ve laid eyes on its artwork below, likely you already had an excellent idea of what’s incoming (so good in fact that we won’t even mention the original artists behind it!) Suffice to say it’s a shared love of the group that’s brought Paul Thomas and Christian’s Burns together to re-envision ‘Enjoy The Silence’.

Production-wise, Paul’s brilliantly modded the original’s mode, turning its richly lamenting atmospheres into something more transcendentally blissed out and (dare we say!) sunset kissed. Underpinned by prog chug, the UV boss has married trickling melodies, rippling bass and melting harmonies to the echoing FX that hangs omnipresent in its midrange.

Tracking that tone, Christian’s delivery is nebulous, lingering and gloriously heat-hazed. Re-exploring the original's complexity, he ensures that each emotion conveyed is fleeting, with no one feeling lingering beyond a single lyrical line.

As its song says though, “words are very unnecessary” … so simply ‘Enjoy The Silence’.
