Trans-X

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Trans-X was a Canadian 1980s dance band, started by Pascal Languirand, and best known for their hit song, "Living on Video".

Trans-X was started by Pascal Languirand in 1981, when their first song "Living On Video" was released. In 1982, Trans-X released another song "Message On the Radio" which didn't make the charts. In 1985, Pascal decided to retire as Trans-X after his last song as Trans-X was released, which was "3-D Dance." This song made the charts in Canada but not in the United States. After the song was released Pascal went silent for a few years and decided to continue his solo career with New Age music instead of Electronica music. And in 1998, he released his "Greatest Hits" album. In 2003, Pascal decided to return as Trans-X and made a remake of his popular song called "Living On Video 2003" The song was a combination of New-Wave Electronica synthesizers and higher-pitched vocals. Pascal's newest hit, "Living On Video 2k6" was released on May 6, 2006, and is available for purchase on iTunes.
