Hi - Here's a compilation of various 80s vinyl tracks. None of these tracks have been released on cd.

Very nice, thank you Jon!

Lots of thanks, Jon! That's the kind of posts I love Great that you include some "minimal synth" gems like Basking Sharks (one of my faves of the genre!) and Ice the Falling Rain. Music for Pleasure are also great. And The News one I have (I actually have all of their singles) and love dearly

Do you by chance have The Quarks track on 7"? I feel the dance mix stretches a bit... And maybe you also have "Urban Foxes" by Search Party? Can't get it in a bitrate higher than 192 for quite some time now

Unfortunately I don't have the Quarks 7". I've possibly got Urban Foxes (I recognise the front sleeve). I'll have a look for that one. I've got the 7" and 12" versions of All Around The World with a shorter version of Lost Paradise.
I have those 3 singles from The News as well.
I have only got the Basking Sharks album, Shark Island as 128kbps.
I've got a few Music For Pleasure vinyls (The Human Factor and Fuel To The Fire on 7" and Time on 12"). I've also got Into The Rain (1982), with bonus tracks as 192kbps and Blacklands (1985), with bonus tracks including Chrome Hit Corrosion 12" as 256kbps. I can upload any of the above if you are missing them.

I do like minimal synth. Looking around, I can see Industry's 12" ep from 1980, so I guess that will be my next project. Ready For The Wave is a top track

Cheers,
Jon

Thank you! Awesome, the quality is outstanding! Love President President/The Quarks!

Thanks. I'm looking forward to discovering some new things here for me.

Thank you! Look forward to listening to this.

BTW, Here Comes The Man (12') finally came out on CD on a Pop & Wave compilation, Kult Prasentiet (spelling?)

I didn't know that. Hopefully they will release the other tracks. I am missing a couple of their 12" mixes.

Really?? I thought I had all of the Pop & Wave collections. Is a recent one? Which volume?
