    A Yangqin and a bellpepper?! What is this, the garden shed from Dead Can Dance?

    Berlin

    Hafen in Motzstrasse is a great place to start the night and see where it goes. It used to be a small restaurant (catering to lesbians) in the 1920´s and it is said that Marlene Dietrich used to be a regular. They have this fun downstairs room, which is just one big staircase leading to a door...

    Worst album covers

    Poor EBTG appearing twice on one page! The new one looks like it´s not even made to appear in a physical format. It´s all thumbnail and nothing else.

    Everything But The Girl / Tracey Thorn

    Thanks for bringing this up. I had noticed this trend since the 1980s and this one really brought it back for me.

    Everything But The Girl / Tracey Thorn

    Nice song, meh video (aren't popstars pushing 60 not allowed in their own videos anymore?). Just noticed that her last RECORD is now 5 years old. *time flies*

    Everything But The Girl / Tracey Thorn

    The Walking Wounded-era has some of my favourite product designs (even if the use of Kanji was not exactly original at the time). Then they followed it with the hideous graphical nightmare that is the Temperamental era. Are we now getting late 80´s Belgian tech-house?

    Italo 'Does It Better' Disco & Hi-NRG 'Your Love Is Lifting Me' Appreciation Thread

    Here´s a mix of one of the greatest of all Italo Disco singles (Hypnotic Tango by My Mine) with Depeche Mode (Policy Of Truth). Works so well together:

    Italo 'Does It Better' Disco & Hi-NRG 'Your Love Is Lifting Me' Appreciation Thread

    This and Get Closer were really big in Germany. The "jocks" all had the hots for "Valerie" (here presented by Monica) while "we" marveled at the fashion choices of the drummer and keyboard-player. The Goth fraction was also into these slow, melancho-Italo tracks. These are perfectly played to an...

    Italo 'Does It Better' Disco & Hi-NRG 'Your Love Is Lifting Me' Appreciation Thread

    Passion is indeed one of the greatest dance singles of all time. It brought us West End Girls and numerous rip-offs by its creator Bobby O. Interestingly it was never filed under Italo Disco. Well, it´s American (back then Italo HAD to be from Italy). Even total Italo sound-a-likes like The...

    Italo 'Does It Better' Disco & Hi-NRG 'Your Love Is Lifting Me' Appreciation Thread

    Did I already post my Mashup of this with the song Savage by Au Suisse?! You can tell by the song title that it´s a bit of an hommage. I haven´t received any Russian comments yet, though.

    Italo 'Does It Better' Disco & Hi-NRG 'Your Love Is Lifting Me' Appreciation Thread

    Wow, what a Frankenstein of a record! It borroughs/rips-off a bunch of previous records/projects, which are Visions - Everybody (1985) (same vocalist and same production team) which itself is build on Somebody (Hey Girl) by Video (1983) and THAT was reworked into Somebody (Hey Boy) with a...
