Mini Viva's '…Tokyo' gets a fresh makeover

  • August 13, 2009

This is the very sprightly 'Pete Hammond Retro mix' of Mini Viva's 'Left My Heart In Tokyo'.

You may remember that ex-SAW musician Pete put together a his­tor­ic­ally accurate 80s-style remix of Alphabeat's 'Boyfriend' a while back and has been making similarly-themed forays back into the pop world ever since. His mixes are a bit like those men who dress up as round­heads and cavaliers and spend their weekends hitting each other with sticks just outside the M25.

Do you think the brief for this Mini Viva mix might have involved the words 'Mel' and/or 'Kim'?

At all?

Do you think?

A bit?

No?
