Since my age of 13 – that was the time when Bucks Fizz won the Eurovision Song Contest in 1981 – I am a huge fan of Jay, Cheryl, Mike and Bobby (and not to forget Shelley). I bought every single, every album, every maxi-single, every cd ... and still do so today. I know nearly every song of them by heart. They and their music accompanied my whole life until now.


These new versions are my tribute to Bucks Fizz and the production team behind them. This is my way to put their music out of the past into the present and future.


Thank you: Andy Hill, Pete Sinfield and Nichola Martin for all those wonderful compositions. You influenced my way of song writing and arranging.

Now you’re gone
(Ray’s Orchestral Mix)


Based on the original b-side of „The Land of make believe“, this new version now definitely  doesn’t have to be just a b-side any longer. More drums, more percussions, more strings, more guitars ... This one will blow you away. ;-)


If you listen carfully, you will find a kind of ABBA-citation at the end of the song. 

Oh Suzanne
(Radio Version 2009)


Put on your headphones,
turn up the base and dance!

Based on Cheryl’s original version
this one got more beat, more base
and additional Synths.

When the love has gone (Ray’s Speed Up Extended Version)


This one is the full length version of the track. It’s cool! :-)

When the love has gone (Ray’s Speed Up Radio Version)


Again a club version of one of my favourites. From originally 100 bpm I’ve speeden it up to 120 bpm. Get up and dance!

Piece of the action
(Ray’s Happy Action Version 2009)


Created with the possibilities of today this one sounds really 80s. When it’s getting best – it’s already over ... that’s life! ;-)

When we were young
(Ray’s New Extended Version 2009)


To my mind this one is the best remix I ever did so far ... Put on your headphones, turn up the base: This one will blow you away. My favourite Fizz track in an absolutely stunning club-sound. I am sure – you will love it!
