New Wave Outpost Forum

Hi all! Simple story here - once not very long ago I decided to do a compilation for my own enjoyment and quickly assembled an hour-long program to listen to outside. Just a set of simple synthpop tunes, nothing heavy-going or ambitious and with "real instruments" kept to absolute minimum (as I usually prefer). Gave it a grand title and filed away on my phone. Now, having gotten to listen to it I find it more and more appealing with each spin, a surprisingly solid thing blending together quite well despite an international cast and varying years of original releases. So I thought it'll be interesting to people here too, maybe someone will find something to his own taste here (though unlikely any revelations to real fans of the genre). Some sound inconsistencies but hope it won't detract from the hopefully pleasant experience.

Songs:
01. Almost Alone - Blue City
02. Turquoise Days - Grey Skies
03. Immunity - Strange Days
04. Twilight - Talk to You
05. Tres - Operator
06. Body Electric - Magic Electronic
07. Soma Holiday - Shake Your Molecules (The Neutron Dance)
08. Future World Orchestra - Roulette
09. D.I.A. - Passion Play
10. Laugh Clown Laugh - Feel So Young
11. Night in Cologne - Just a Whisper (in the Air)
12. 1-Syntax-1 - Negatives
13. New Scientists - The Storm
14. Ian Messenger - Livin' in the Night
15. Hilary - Kinetic

Enjoy!

Looks like a nice collection, thanks Passing Stranger!

Thanks Passing Stranger. I hope these are DOWNbeat New Wave.

Hope you enjoy it guys! It is absolutely the toppest suicide soundtrack ever conceived by man! Not once I saw people on the brink of nervous collapse due to its overpowering depressiveness So not for the faint-hearted, proceed with caution!

D.I.A - Passion Play is one of those rare infectious gems, if I dare call it so......
It would have been a worthy one hit wonder, if only it were a hit at all....


Glad to see you decide to include it in your compilation.

Thank you!

Interested to hear this.

There's some good stuff on here.

Along with D.I.A. you've also got A Night In Cologne and 1-Negative-1. Thanks for making this available, PS.
