With their first commercial single release, 'Fascination', selling over 100,000 copies, it's clear that Britain has taken Alphabeat to it's heart. Ever since they made the move from Copenhagen to a shared house in East London, these six young Danes have been winning over critics, club kids, indie scene and fashionistas alike with their infectious brand of high-octane, organically produced Modern Pop and incendiary live performances. Now with a bona fide breakthrough single under their belts you know that this band aren't going to stop until they have made 2008 their own. Also includes the second single, '10,000 Nights'. 10 tracks. EMI. .com It’s difficult not to like Danish six-piece Alphabeat. Their retro-fuelled ‘wonky pop’ is pure optimistic fun of the kind that only po-faced too-cool-for-schoolers could possibly diss. This Is Alphabeat is a version of their platinum-selling Danish release minus some of the cheesier moments and with three brand new tracks produced by Mike Spencer (Kylie, Beverley Knight, Jamiroquai). 80s-style pop is still very much the motto here, with singles like "Fascination" and "10,000 Nights" manifesting more than just a casual aura of fame school about them. "Boyfriend" is reminiscent of 80s Madonna and the skewed electro of "Touch Me Touching You" is ridiculously saccharine and highly infectious. One of Spencer’s additions is worth noting--a cheerful romp through PiL's "Public Image," chirpy whistling and all, that will undoubtedly make John Lydon purple with rage. This Is Alphabeat packs in the musical clichés for sure, but there’s no denying the band’s zest and sincerity. At only ten tracks, this is a short but defiantly sweet statement.--Danny McKenna ## Images ![This Is Alphabeat - Image 1](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/61aKcS98f2L.jpg) ![This Is Alphabeat - Image 2](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51oq%2B%2BTEyAL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Prepare to be Fascinated. *by D***N on Reviewed in the United States on November 16, 2010* If happy, upbeat, and cheerful music isn't your thing then prepare yourself to be converted, cause thats just how good Alphabeat is. This group has completely captivated me and my friends and I couldn't suggest purchasing this album more. Priced at an average $15 range, its a steal and I would venture to say you won't regret it. If you're not familiar with their songs try looking them up on Facebook, YouTube, or Grooveshark before committing to buying the album.This CD is definitely 80s inspired and has super fun and upbeat tracks mixed with some sappy love songs that are sure to get your heart throbbing. Trying to compare this group to another artist is a bit difficult since they really are their own voice. I strongly recommend purchasing this album as they are unlike any group right now in the USA. If I had to sum this album up in one word it would be "HAPPY" and we all know thats not a bad thing right? ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This Is The Beat! *by J***E on Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2012* This is such a great album, it has everything I love about todays music mixed up with the style and emotion of the 80s and early 90s. Alphabeat not only sounds amazing but they look great! I love their style. I wish more bands were like this. The songs on this album are all catchy and you will be listening to them over and over and perhaps even singing them without even knowing! This is a must have album that anyone can enjoy. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Upbeat stuff *by E***R on Reviewed in the United States on July 4, 2019* Enjoy this cd --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/203300961-this-is-alphabeat](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/203300961-this-is-alphabeat) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
