Completement Nue Au Soleil is a 12" EP by Manchester post-punk band Ludus. It was recorded in summer 1982 and due to be released on the Belgian Crepuscule label in early 1983, but it was cancelled and eventually released only on Base Records in Italy in 1984. The first 3 tracks from the EP was later included in the Crepuscule 1988 compilation Nue Au Soleil (Completement), and all the 4 tracks from this EP were eventually included on the 2002 compilation CD The Damage.
This EP was marked by a richer sound, achieved when Ian Devine and Linder Sterling were joined by keyboard player Dave Formula (ex-Magazine), bassist Paul Cavanagh, drummer Roy O'Shea and sax players Lee Buick and Graeme Revell.
After the experimental 1982 LP Danger Came Smiling, Ludus made a shift towards more accessible, pop-oriented music, represented by songs such as Let Me Go Where My Pictures Go (described by journalist and musician Cath Carroll as "a fine example of Reichian disco"). This song would eventually become one of their best known songs, largely due to its inclusion on Morrissey's compilation Songs To Save Your Life. The title song is the cover of a Brigitte Bardot 1970 pop hit. However, Ludus proved their versatility on this EP: She-She has lots in common with the early Ludus work, while What A Falling Off Was There - an intense jazz improvisation accompanied by Linder's screams and cries - is reminiscent of Danger Came Smiling.
