SHARE: Best of Lost Wave Vol. 10 (final)

Postby Passing_Stranger » Sat Jul 11, 2020 7:06 am

I see there are quite a few people here recently sharing lots of interesting compilations of 1980s music. Finally having some spare time, I'd like to join (or rejoin) this fine group. Over the years I've been a firm supporter of CD reissues of rare 1980s albums done under the label of "Lost Wave" and some others. The guys do a stellar job of preserving this music and I've got quite a few of their CDs already. And it is from them that I decided to get stuff for a new series of compilations that I called "Best of Lost Wave". This "best" is completely arbitrary, of course, but I hope will be of interest to the music lovers here and maybe will prompt someone to seek out some of these CDs.

Will be sharing one compilation per week. I tried not to clash with other series regarding song choices, though sometimes it's damn hard :D

01. Tokyo Vogue - New Tomorrows
02. Glass Museum - Dumping Cart Motion
03. Jullan - Electric Day
04. Trees - Shock of the New
05. The Body Electric - Babies on Parade
06. Planning by Numbers - Red Flags Fading
07. Rezistance - Ground Zero
08. Positive Noise - Feel the fear
09. Minor Detail - 20th Century
10. Nómo - Dance the Dance

Enjoy!

Guys, thank you very much for feedback - much appreciated! Always nice to share with like-minded people, knowing there are quite a few with the similarly great taste :D

Now, the second volume. The first one turned out to be a bit social in content, now a bunch of relationship-oriented stuff for variety:

01. Virgin Dance - Night Call
02. Sense - Escape
03. Eternal Triangle - Nothing But a Friend
04. Peter Godwin - The Dancer
05. John O'Banion - White Light
06. Dhuo - On Video
07. Jon St James - Trans-Atlantic
08. Mummy Calls - Sexual Desire
09. Blanket of Secrecy - Something I Don't Need
10. Beranek - Dancing in the Wind

Re: SHARE: Best of Lost Wave Vol. 3

Postby Passing_Stranger » Mon Feb 22, 2021 11:05 am

Seven months on, here's the 3rd volume of the series :D Again, all songs are taken from the "Lost Wave" series of reissues of obscure and unsuccessful New Wave albums of the 1980s. Some gems here, especially the Auckland Walk album, which is perfect and should be known much more widely. Highly recommended.

01. TicToc - Twenty Questions
02. Person to Person - Running out
03. Alastair Riddell - Do You Read Me
04. Dial M - Motionless
05. Auckland Walk - Love Slides Backwards
06. Play - This Little Girl
07. Espionage - The Great Escape
08. Moral Support - Hold on to Time
09. Satellite Spies - Nothing I'd Rather Do
10. Bone Symphony - I'll Be There for You

Hey guys! Glad the previous one is appreciated! Following swiftly on, here's the 4th compilation in the series. Rather upbeat, with some unusual themes for pop songs - but that's great, makes a change from the tired clichés :D

01. Sunday Club - Grete Weitz
02. Cube - Concert Boy
03. Beat the Drum - This City
04. Prima Voice - Respect for Metal
05. Sons of Heroes - Dream Machines
06. Dekka Danse - Movement is Tranquility
07. Language - Touch the Radio 'Dance'
08. Rodway - Dotted Line
09. Transmuters - Creatures of Time
10. Episode I - Equal Balance
