Surely the LP title gives it away?

It's 28 years after the first one, which was in 1978 I believe.

Having just had a several hour Ableton Live warping party -- including
several old Salsoul classics, which I'm sure are hell to beatmatch on
vinyl -- I've come to a conclusion about the Black Devil Disco Club
'28 After' album:  All the tracks are of recent vintage.

Why? The tempo is rock solid all the way through.  A computer was
involved, or at a minimum, the drummer was playing to a very steady
click.  I'm not sure a drummer was actually used for the tracks at
all, based on the regularity of the beats.  I don't know which is more
impressive -- a drummer that can play for 6 minutes rock steady down
to the millesecond, or how carefully they faked a live drummer.  Or,
for that matter, how organically the live and machine drumming is put
together, if both are used.

In other words, it's a tremendously well done fake of the sound of
1982, done recently, which incidentally is some of my favorite Italo.
