I angsted quite a lot over this, in particular whether or not to include #FadGadget and #NineInchNails (who are technically bands but often referred to as solo projects). So I hope some good comes of it.
(Spoiler: it won't)
What is this I see? No FrankTovey hashtag on Mastodon? Better sort it aht.
This is the jewel in my modest vinyl collection, "Snakes and Ladders", solo album by the legend behind FadGadget (which does have a hashtag but not nearly enough action on it!)
Another superb Cherry Red Records compilation.
Independent British Synth Pop '78-'84
Sure there's the 'big names' like #TheHumanLeague #OMD #TheNormal #ThomasDolby #FadGadget but it's the bands who maybe released just one single or had a brief run of local fame before fading away that grabs the attention.
This song is a great example - Poeme Electronique w. She's An Image
I love the fact it sounds like it could have been made by Trisha Yates and the rest of the girls at Grange Hill. It's the DIY attitude that you don't hear anymore.
Did you know that #gangoffour, #scrittipoliti, #themekons, #delta5, #fadgadget & #softcell all emerged from the same years & art courses at Leeds uni & poly? This explosion of talent is the subject of a new book that features my beloved Andy Gill, as does this article https://thequietus.com/articles/32366-gavin-butt-interview-no-machos-or-pop-stars-leeds-post-punk-mekons-elta-5-scritti-politti-fad-gadget
