When two of the boffins who helped create the electronic art-punk sound of the Moonlandingz -- Adrian Flanagan and Dean Honer -- ran into Soundcarriers vocalist Leonore Wheatley at an electronics workshop, they decided it would be a cracking idea to start a band. They called the project International Teachers of Pop and the two singles they released in 2018, "Age of the Train" and "On Repeat," proved that it was a fine idea indeed. Both were shimmering songs that were part neo-disco, part synth pop, and part glitter pop; they utilized vintage synths and Wheatley's impressive vocals to craft dance music that is tongue in cheek, but also ready for the dancefloor.

He'd just spent the better part of three years living, collaborating and touring with David Bowie . These were the years, from the beginning of the Station to Station tour to the end of Isolar II, when Bowie was at the peak of his godly powers. Iggy, in the process, had made The Idiot and Lust For Life - both released in 1977, along with Bowie's Low and "Heroes".
