Tuxedomoon?

: Japan?!? (Especially 'European Son' LP. - ? - there was no LP of that name; it was a 12/7 which has been featured on a few comps. * Yeah, you're right. The LP I've got is 'Assemblage.' No vinyl version listed in discogs though, (afaics), but I'm definitely not mistaken that I have it on vinyl, not cd! It's a great record imo. There's a version of Life in Tokyo (both it and the extended version where produced by Giorgio Moroder) but it's not the best thing on there, I believe. The title track 'European Son' with its hard quantizing (the first time I'd think I'd recognised the use of a drum machine, I think) comes close. Spot the 313ers pushing 40! ;-) Almost time for smooth jazz and slippers... K

This is the last one: check the two LPs Giorgio Moroder produced for Sparks...one is No.1 in Heaven. Seems like there's another, but I can't recall it and I'm too lazy to dig through my rack to see. And if you're going to do that, you might as well dig up Kimono My House and Propaganda (by Sparks) - neither of them are synthpop at all, but they're great records :-) And, oh - the band Propaganda, of course.

Re: (313) iPod DJ - more synth-pop please
Depending how much synth or pop one desires ... Propaganda, Scritti Politti, SPK, Strawberry Switchblade, Shakepeare's Sister, KTP, Blancmange, Camouflage, Boxcar Jeff I bet you got all these ;) Lisa listening: HBR1.com eating: a cinnamon-powdered doughnut drinking: tea with milk thinking: trying not to think too hard whilst typing up a paper due today - bleh theREALmxyzptlk wrote: [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: listening: Yazoo - Only You eating: my bottom lip drinking: tea thinking: Vince Clarke is a genius (and wondering why it's not time to go home yet) send me suggestions for more strangely cold and detached synth-pop please (I've got the usual suspects: BEF/early Heaven 17, Depeche Mode, Ultravox, early Human League OMD, Pet Shop Boys, etc.) any interesting side projects that seemed to fly under the radar? solo careers worth checking out? different ratios of synth to pop: Visage. Vicious Pink. PSB. Dalek i , also known as Dalek I Love You. Oh, that other Assembly single is Never Never. Haruomi Hosono: SFX and Philharmony. Sakamoto : B2 Unit. YMO : Technodelic. Bill Nelson : Quit Dreaming and Get On The Beam (has some guitar as well). Telex Peter Godwin's Images of Heaven track. Thomas Leer CabVolt. a few Red Flag tracks. newer: You should give the last Future Bible Heroes' record (Eternal Youth) a spin - prime synthpop (FBH is a spinoff of Stephin Merritt's Magnetic Fields) The first Ladytron record. ...I'll think of 400 more after I post this.

Scritti Politti as well (after the punk phase - but I liked 'em then, too). Oh yeah, KTP - Big Man Restless :-) Surgical Penis Klinik - fairly serious stuff!! jeff
