It's a big thrill to have German synthpop heavyweights PROPAGANDA on the cover of the first Electronic Sound of 2026. And it's no less of a thrill to have a clear vinyl seven-inch boasting brilliant new mixes of 'Dr Mabuse' and 'Duel', probably the band's two best-known tracks, to accompany the magazine.

Alongside this month's issue, we're releasing an exclusive seven-inch featuring subtle new mixes of PROPAGANDA's 'Dr Mabuse' and 'Duel', the group's biggest hits. Pressed on clear vinyl and adding another layer of luxury to the much-loved 1980s tracks, the updates are the work of acclaimed UK producer David Kosten, whose credits include Everything Everything and Bat For Lashes. 'Dr Mabuse' is as dark, enigmatic and enticing as it always was, while 'Duel' remains one of the smartest and coolest synthpop cuts ever. You don't want to miss out on this one. Sell your soul if you have to.
