Not exactly a new track, being from 1987, but I’ve been having a week of listening to 80’s only tracks to see what I missed out on and have become rather enchanted at this super groovy, yet angry, shouty classic.
Tag: Electro
This reminds me of all the extravagances of the electro-clash era, a short electro track about wanting to fuck a mannequin.
Dopplereffekt – Plastiphilia 2
You do not hear enough electro nowadays. This is a charming little beauty full of melodic snyth stabs.
Dmx Krew – Astro Logical
Tiga right back on form with this clinky electro-soaked track. Tiga made his made producing electro monsters when electro was good, back in the early to mid-2000’s – before it went all electro-house. Rediscover electro with this very cool and catchy track.
Tiga – Bugatti
One of my favourite tracks to sing out loud at work. Ashamedly I do not have that much of a grasp on the discography of the legendary Kraftwerk but am slowly gaining knowledge of their impressive volume of work and suggest that you do too.
Ich bin ein sex object.
Kraftwerk – Sex Objekt
What a classic mid-2000’s electro tune. Delighted to have rediscovered it. Surely cannot be more than a year or two before electro becomes cool again? Maybe 3 years away. I miss the power and performance of such monstrous delights.
Poni Hoax – Hypercommunication (Alter Ego Remix)
I love a bit of 80’s electro and this remix strips out the vocals (mostly) for a real audience teaser.
Yazoo – Don’t Go (Re-re-mix)
German Nintendo music. Yes. Only a small clip available on Soundcloud. I haven’t the foggiest where I discover some of these tracks sometimes.

Deichkind – Leider Geil (Solomun Remix)
Proper sleazy electro remix of a house classic which you will recognise.
Oh and it’s from 2004 so before electro went shit.
Marco Passarani – I House You
Incredibly cool piece of German electro from the 80’s, with a vocal that you will recognise and a delightful 11 minutes long.
Donna Allen – Serious (Special Extended U.S. Mix)
Ah the return of robotic electro music that sounds good, sounds fresh and sounds modern – a big welcome back to electro! None of that ra ra ra wub crap.
Jimmy Edgar – This One’s For The Children
A 3 minute track on my blog! This is like some kind of quirky pop tune, bit of an electro feel to it and quite catchy. Will I like it next week? Unlikely, so enjoy it before I delete it.
