Demon Music Group are delighted to confirm the release of ‘Night Mirror’ in July 2025 – the fourth solo album from electronic music legend, Claudia Brücken.
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 Düsseldorf 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 Jimmy Somerville, Andrew Poppy, Andy Bell (Erasure), Peter Hook (New Order) and Wolfgang Flür (Kraftwerk), 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 album 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.
This exclusive limited 2-disc Lexer Music edition includes ‘Night Mirror’ in an alternate sleeve and exclusive bonus CD EP of ‘Nighttime Mixes’ by esteemed electronic producer Jason Mayo. There will also be a limited signed print as part of the package. A single batch of 1200 units only.
"Claudia Brücken - Night Mirror" is out Friday, 4th July 2025 on Edsel Records and available for pre-order now.
