Jerry and the auto


As I just cant get myself around to post as often as I’d like to I thought that I would throw in a couple more songs this time. Anyway, I guess I’ve got an early 80’s electro theme going here. All tunes where released between 1982-84 and delivers the full spectrum of sinister beats, robotic synths, futuristic vocoders and rough basslines that we all love so much.

Bobby Davenport



Bobby Davenport’s “Time (Has Come Today)” is a forgotten italo classic that was produced by Randy Sills and Peter Hirsh in 1983. The bassline is tighter that your grown out stretch jeans and the hand clap is as constat as it is frantic.

Adeyhawke


Adeyhawke has lately created quite a buzz around himself. Adeyhawke has a distinct, utterly refreshing sound with references to late 70’s and early 80’s dance music. Although he would pass as a French producer any day, Adeyhawke is Irish and a Dubliner with a feel for restless bass lines, and retro harmonies. While eagerly waiting for a new release the tracks below will have to suffice for now.

KANO


KANO was formed in 1979 by Italian-based producers/musicians Luciano Ninzatti, Stefano Pulga and Matteo Bonsanto. KANO’s debut in 1980 with the single “I’m Ready” became an instant hit that helped propel the genre further. However KANO’s career wasn’t long lasting but songs like “Another Life” and “I’m ready” has lately been heavily sampled.

The Cansecos


This morning started out with some gruesome weather but somewhere after lunch the sun came out and the day turned into a really nice spring day and with the track Raised by Wolves playing on my iPod things where solid, hence I thought I would share the song with you. The band behind the tune is Canadian The Cansecos who recently performed at the South by Southwest festival. Their latest release “JUICES!”, which came out last November, provides a sweet electro influenced pop sound and is highly recommended.
