Computer - Nobody Loves A Computer Because A Computer Does Not Dance (1977)

Funny trivia: this track was written by the future CEOs of AB Groupe, the French television network holding company (before becoming a huge channel network firm, AB started as a very small record label): Jean-François Porry and Gérard Salesses, two infamous names known to every French teenager and child in the 80s/early 90s.

The Glasgow-based band Den Haan produced this funny tune for the underground label Dissident. They keep a pure old school italo style just adding their own electro touch.

Thanks to the Keytars and Violins blog for sharing.

Stay tuned for their forthcoming “Release The Beast”

Not recent at all, but it could have been written nowadays as well. Future-proof, in a way.

Ellison Chase - Welcome To Tomorrow (1983)

Cécile - Nocturne No1 (2009)

Santa Caecilia is the musicians and singers’ protector and Cécile is also the name of the italian project led by a mysterious C.D. producer from Milan with a classical background. (more…)
