1982: the Factory backlash is in full effect. UK music weeklies gleefully shred to pieces most of the label's output. Section 25 are deemed dour Joy Division copyists, regardless of the merits of their work. Section 25 take a decision; to reinvent themselves, to follow their love of Kraftwerk and electro, to lighten up a little.

Fast forward to the first months of 1985: Section 25 are touring America coast to coast. They are trying to find a deal for From The Hip, an album of pin-sharp electro tracks, utterly ignored by the British media. For live performance, the group rely heavily on sequencing and on a sound they had stumbled upon two years previous whilst learning their new TB303; a harsh piercing "squiggle" that would later typify acid house.

This CD is a document of that US tour. This group of supposed JD-copyists from Blackpool, written off in their own country, toured a proto-version of acid chanced upon by mistake two years prior, through Detroit, Chicago and New York. Program For Light and Looking From A Hilltop astound. Squalls of feedback and pounding drums vie for air with punishing sequenced rhythms and keys. The (ab)use of the TB303, and in a live band context, is eye opening.

No US deal was forthcoming. The group dissolved, three members leaving unable to live of the meagre earnings. Section 25 recorded one final album as a duo under impossible financial circumstances, then faded away.

Maybe if they had been signed in the US… Maybe if they had released their first TB303 experiments in 1983… Maybe if they had taken this live sound to the studio… Maybe if Factory had given them just a little support… then maybe history would be just a little different.
