Claudia Brucken

Night Mirror

£13.99

Released: 4th July 2025. Written and recorded in London between 2023-2025 with longtime collaborator John Williams, 'Night Mirror' is a stunning collection of 10 brand new songs, suffused with optimism, loosely bound by themes of reflection and rebirth. Having first come to notice as the lead singer of Dusseldorf electronic music pioneers Propaganda, one of the first signings to the celebrated ZTT Records (Frankie Goes to Hollywood, Art of Noise, 808 State), Claudia's striking image and distinctive vocals made her one the most influential and inspiring female musicians of her generation. Propaganda enjoyed chart success with hit singles like 'Dr Mabuse' and 'Duel' and their 1985 album 'A Secret Wish' is frequently cited as one of the landmark electronic pop albums of all time. In subsequent years, along with collaborations with the likes of Wolfgang Flur (Kraftwerk), Martin Gore (Depeche Mode), ACT, Andrew Poppy, Andy Bell (Erasure), and Peter Hook (New Order). Claudia was most recently in the limelight fronting the reimagined xPropaganda whose 2022 album 'The Heart Is Strange' garnered ecstatic reviews and reached No. 11 in the UK Albums Chart. On 'Night Mirror' Claudia is reunited with musical partner John Williams, whose work as a producer, writer, engineer, and record label head has seen him work with such luminaries as The Housemartins, Alison Moyet, Blancmange, Simple Minds and The Proclaimers. Contributing to the album are an accomplished series of musicians, whose credits include The Lighthouse Family, Cathy Dennis, Orlando Weeks (The Maccabees), and Kaiser Chiefs.
