New? I think that while there has been an increase in 80s influenced music
over the last year or so, the electro "wave" isn't new at all. There have
been consistant releases of electro music for at least four or five years.
The labels are a bit more obscure and smaller in scale than say, Tommy Boy
or even Tresor, thus they have fallen below the radar of most people. Why
the increased interest in 80s influenced music I'm not sure...anyone care to
offer their hypothesis?
MEK
PS Weird thing is, just when the increase of 80s influenced music and
electro seems to be at a high point in the press, my local record shop
doesn't have a decent electro record to speak of. Figures.

What about this new "electro" wave ? Adult, Dopplereffekt etc ? without
falling in the "by the way, who's behind Drexciya?" FAQ-filler, there are
tons of brilliant records being released in this vein these days ?
