Alison Moyet – Raindancing (Deluxe Edition 2016): A Sonic Masterpiece in FLAC

In the pantheon of 1980s pop icons, few voices command the gravity, grit, and emotional resonance of Alison Moyet. From her raw, punk-inflected beginnings with Yazoo (Yaz in the US) to her sophisticated solo output, Moyet has always defied easy categorization. However, one album in her discography often serves as the litmus test for true audiophile appreciation: 1987’s Raindancing.

Disc One (Original Album Remastered): Features the classic 10-track lineup, including the top-tier hits "Is This Love?" (co-written with the Eurythmics' Dave Stewart) and "Weak in the Presence of Beauty". Alison Moyet - Raindancing -Deluxe 2016- -FLAC-

Why the 2016 Deluxe Edition Matters

“Love Letters” (Opening Track): The kick drum hits your chest. The electric guitar snarls with presence. Moyet’s vocal—a controlled growl—sounds like she’s in the room with you.
“Weak in the Presence of Beauty”: The signature hit. In lossless audio, the reverb on her voice decays naturally into the silence. The backing vocals, previously a wash of sound, now separate into distinct harmonies.
“Ordinary Girl”: This deep cut benefits most from the 2016 remaster. The bassline is liquid and warm, not boomy. You can hear the fret noise, the room tone—it’s intimate.
“Sleep Like Breathing”: A haunting ballad. In FLAC, the piano’s harmonic overtones linger. You’ll hear Moyet’s breath control, the slight crack in her resolve. Heartbreakingly beautiful.
