Re-Flex

80s British New Wave Synth-Pop Band

Re-Flex was a British new wave band active in the early 1980s. They are best known for their hit single "The Politics of Dancing," which was the title track of their debut album released in 1983. The band consisted of members Baxter, Paul Fishman, John Baxter, and Roland Vaughan Kerridge. Their music combined catchy synth-pop melodies with danceable rhythms, characteristic of the new wave genre that was popular at the time. Despite the success of their debut album and its lead single, Re-Flex struggled to replicate this success with subsequent releases. They released a second album, "Humanication," but it did not achieve the same level of recognition as their first. The band eventually disbanded, and while they have not maintained a high profile since their peak in the 1980s, "The Politics of Dancing" remains an enduring hit from that era.
