    Wild Party sounds like a funky Cabaret Voltaire around the same time. Especially with the background vocals. Almost sounds like Thomas Dolby meets Cabaret Voltaire. Highly funky track and I really like the smoothness to it. And ya, the b-side might be one of my top 3 ACR songs. One of their best singles for sure.

      A side is just OK but the B side instrumental jam is the track
