Forbidden Fruit - The Age of Consent Remixed Black Vinyl
The first incarnation of Bronski Beat unfolded over a short but sweet period from April 1984 with 'Smalltown Boy' and ending in September 1985 with their post-split remix album 'Hundreds And Thousands'.
With a nod to the original 'Hundreds And Thousands', and following on from last year's 40th Anniversary editions of 'The Age of Consent', London Records announce an all new Bronski Beat album - 'Forbidden Fruit - The Age Of Consent Remixed'.
The album features new reworks from the likes of Gareth Jones (Depeche Mode, Erasure), Kinky Roland (Boy George, Marc Almond) and more, alongside exclusive extended versions of the 2024 remixes by Superchumbo (ft. Neil Tennant) and The Knocks (ft. Perfume Genius).
A long-lost 16-minute mix of 'I Feel Love / Love To Love You Baby', featuring Marc Almond, has been reconstructed and included as 'I Feel Love (Ultramix)'.
Traversing electronic dystopia, italo-disco, NRG , sultry jazz and more, 'Forbidden Fruit' makes for a fitting finale to 'The Age of Consent'. All versions are unreleased and appear on vinyl for the very first time.

The Age Of Consent (40th Anniversary Edition) Double Vinyl
Synth pop trio Bronski Beat's 1984 debut The Age of Consent is a rarity in musical history - an album that both defined a generation and challenged the status quo. 40 years later and The Age of Consent remains as prescient and vital as ever as it did on its original release; truly transgressive - defiant, queer, and laden with hooks. To celebrate this important anniversary, London Records revisit the album across a series of formats.
The 40th Anniversary double vinyl edition includes:
The Age of Consent
(2018 remaster)
Hundreds & Thousands
(2024 remaster)
