Hallo! This whole new order thread reminded me of something I once read in the FAQ section of the 313 mailing list at Hyperreal: The MI, through Derrick, brought a European vibe to our city, something that there never was before. Before, we were just a bunch of middle-class black kids who

Wow, thanks for that. I always wondered. I really disliked that second ABC album. We had the cassette and I have not seen it for years! I just found it abrasive. I really get annoyed how 80s synth-pop is referred to as electro now, as it wasn't. It was New Wave or New Romantic - (I am feeling

I know in Sicko's Techno Rebels, he lists such groups as ABC in lists of records pertaining to various chapters within the book. I'm still playing Heaven 17's Penthouse and Pavement to this day. ;) On Sun, 10 Aug 2003 14:19:00 +1000, Cyclone Wehner [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: While we're on this

You guys gotta be kidding, Duran Duran is so cheesy! Whereas Depeche Mode I like musically--they had a pretty innovative sound for the time, and also find the things they sing about to be pretty interesting. Of course one could fault them with providing lots of ammo for future goth posers, but

We hear too much the getting old theory of musical taste, but maybe whether people came to techno through an enjoyment of some type of industrial music also has a lot do with the direction of their musical tastes??? Please discuss. Sure. The old TG/EN/Cab Volt/Mute stuff certainly threads

To add another layer of contentiousness to this fascinating discussion, I'll throw in my 2 cents... I like D2 AND DM. That (along with Tangerine Dream) was basically what turned me on to electronic music in the early days. And I agree, Save a Prayer is ridiculously beautiful. That little

I never did understand the OMD appeal though. I think maybe it was because every song was in the shiniest, happiest unrelentingly major key - it all sounded like a vapid commercial for girls' toys or something... No flame suit necessary but I bet hearing their really early stuff like
