BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1984
“Running” is a single by the band InSoc (Information Society) originally released on the Creatures of Influence album in 1985. The single for Running was distributed to club DJs, and became a favorite all over clubs, particularly in the Latin clubs of New York City. The original 12″ was released on Wide Angle Records in 1984 this 12″ was released before the song was remixed in 1986 when the band signed to Tommy Boy Records.
Unlike other singles in their catalogue, “Running” does not feature Kurt Harland on lead vocals, as the song was written and recorded by short-lived band member Murat Konar, who left the band in 1985 and would later be an integral part of the development of both SoundEdit (a Mac hosted sound editing application) and Adobe Flash applications.
This original 12″ has become quite rare and pretty expensive.
