Great early 80's electronic soundtrack by Francesco Clemente (aka David Kristian from Canada) released in 2004, sounding a bit like early John Carpenter work but more twisted and dark.

Drawing parallels to both the world of Dopplereffekt and Arpanet it still manages to be very different and The Consumer has quite well establish his/her/their own sound based on different emotional feelings, techniques and creativity according to the use of analogue and digital expressions.

Powerful, potent songs yield a brutal post-punk sound. Just imagine WARSAW meet WIRE meet the FALL and you will already have a good idea of their musical universe. Add to their explosive cocktail the tension of retained violence and madness, a real singer who knows his craft, agitated spasmodic drums that make the drummer of ESG look like Christian Vander of Magma, and degenerate keyboards that will leave your head aching.

Vendetta is a vocal 5-track ep from GD Luxxe (aka Gerhard Potuznik from Vienna - Austria). Electro-pop music that would not sound at home on the International DJ Gigolos label (this is not techno music dressed in black leather and florescent pink gloves, no). Timeless variety electronic music. Here GD Luxxe takes the sound of classic-era New Order as a starting point, and makes his own statement for 2002. Honest, memorable, and sincere tracks for the home and for the dancefloor !

These 2 tracks shows the more poppy side of this German band with some minimal-electro influences. They are not too close to the good old typical new-wave sound of the band and so seemed to be the perfect choice for a release on Hamburg-based NLW label.

In 1982, they released the “Dreadful Dance” 7” and the “This is Future” LP, both recorded and produced by Ton Willekes from Ensemble Pittoresque. “Europe Calls” is great and danceable minimal dark electropop track, very simple with TR-808, sequencer driven synth and female vocals reminiscent of X-mal Deutschland or Malaria, so perfect for your dark wave disco dancefloors. “Radio Lines” is also very minimal, dark, slow, threatening, with guitar and vocal experimentation... Limited to 500 copies and come with a photo from 1985. Unmissable.

robotmachine / 12"

"Robotmachine" gets things started with heavy beat patterns while deeping things with nice layered strings and melodies but don't be fooled this track will get any ass shaking on the dancefloor anywheres on the planet. The inside cut gives you all the "Robotsequence" parts including the vocoder acapella. The B side does not let up for one second when the "Electronic Freakazoidz" comes to bat with some serious jaw shattering bass. Again this jam comes fully equiped with vocoder, bass, heavy beats, and deep melodies. Finally "Autobass" gets a little more old school on you with nice verses of electro funk that can’t be denied.. F**kkin' Good !

This is a pioneer work of the so called Neue Deutsche Welle and offers the best sides of it; naive but thrilling lyrics, adventurous soundscapes from keyboards and synths that were state of the art that time, an amateur production you don´t wanna miss, cheering vocals and catchy tunes. Brilliant and outstanding lp from a period when German music was on its peak. All we can do is to share these lovely memories...

Just as tantalizing to the eye as it is to the ear, fans of the abstract and the post-modern, early synth and contemporary noise should surely take note. Even if you’re miles away from the Lower East Side, you can still experience the very rare in the cold, dark confines of your home. Simply Enormous !

Strange Devotion (aka Dominic Butler from UK), recorded a single demo cassette in April 1982. "Again The New Formation" sounds perfectly like a mixture of Vice Versa and Transparent Illusion using Korg MS10 and Sound Master Memory Rhythm SR-88. "Danger Line" sounds like the perfect mixture of Human League’s "Being Boiled" and Vice Versa, pure minimal analogue electronics heaven !!! Oh boy, this is Tippp ;-P
