Victor Fritzsche - Heatwave (1976)
Released in October 1976 under BLOCKYEEN Records, this is notable for being the first time Victor Fritzsche and David Wojciechowski collaborated in a song. Victor's main gig was working on making music and sounds for television and radio, eventually working for BLOCKYEEN Entretainment and creating library music, as well as other things. In parallel, David was studying music composition in the UK, but he had his eye on synthesizers. His love for the electronic would blossom as he experimented with modular and semi-modular gear such as the Roland 100M.
One faithful day, at some café near the WC2 area in London, David and Victor, who were only 19 and 22 at the time, met up by chance. David recieved his rather tasteless croissaint and it somehow triggered a conversation relevant to music. Victor was in need of a spicy and otherworldly sound for a song he was tasked to produce, and David brought up his knowledge synthesizers...and that is how David was invited to help with synth work for this very song, starting a bond that would last several decades. Of course, around 10 months later, they would start to record their first big project: Gato, which would be released in December 1978.
In this song, Victor plays drums, bass, guitars and electric piano, while David is in charge of the synth work.
