Warning
Are you ready for some dark sided stuff?
Icy-yet-still-very-analog synths, we get a vocalist who sounds like he really wanted to be in a death metal band, but was kicked out for sounding too much like a satanic Cookie Monster. There's also an occasional disturbing female vocalist chiming in. [Dr. Schluss' Garage Of Psychedelic Obscurities]
Sounds like a bunch of silly cenobites on schrooms playing with synths with little sisters!
Its VERY freaky!

Patrick D. Martin
Here he is.. the kooky black sheep bastard of I.R.S. records!..
This American 12-inch was gathered from a batch of British singles. The mysterious Mr. M. plays bright electro-pop that sounds like a simplified \"Pop Muzik,\" but the heavy British accent in his singing eliminates any taint of mechanical coolness. \"Computer Datin\'\" is the standout track. - [Ira Robbins] Trouser Press
Yeah yeah yeah. You decide!

Frank Chickens
The two Japanese women (Kazuko Hohki, Kazumi Taguchi) who comprise Frank Chickens are both proud of and amused by musically mixing synth-pop (created in the main by the English writing/production team of Steve Beresford and David Toop) with funk and jazz, the Chickens also incorporate Japanese musical traditions.
Very entertaining.
Always in danger of being viewed strictly as a novelty act, Frank Chickens manage to avoid such trappings by remaining uniquely bizarre.

Vitor Hublot
Here is a word for word google translation from a french fan page..
Neither god nor master>
The Belgian group is colorful as funny and mysterious. With versions of revisited The P'tite Gayol "or" Mary Clap'sabots "is all over Wallonia who took a solid smack in the middle of the eighties. As evidence, there are two 45s and a 33 rpm called "185 million Francophones and me and me and me". Even Georges Brassens had the honor of being cooked in the sauce Hublot! Jeff Bodart is stuck in it for "Bad Reputation" but this new home will delirium - incomprehensibly - cold ...
From Vitor Hublot, a bit of everything ...
Throughout these years, we find the music and sometimes singing Guy Clerbois Braine l'Alleud (whose original business was a stonemason) ... who, whenever he could, put the sub side to go register a disc in the studios of the Martin brothers. Around him, a clique of musicians or singers who come and go: Mimi Crofilm, and Françoise Chantal Talbot, Renaud Janson, Eric Adam, Marc Van Eyck, Jean-Luc Fonck, Mondelaers Thierry, Jean-Louis Sbille (Cargo de Nuit on the RTB) and Pierre Vervloesem.
A new version of "The P'tite Gayol" released in 2009 and a remastered reissue of the album "185 million" accompanied by two titles in his first 45 rpm max. Other projects of remixes and new songs rehabilitation are underway!
I've been looking for this Lp for a while and FINALLY we meet!
It's as if Jerry Lewis joined DEVO and became part of the French electronic Wave scene in the early 80's!!

Space Art
Space Art is a French band that was formed by two friends in Paris in 1977. The group consisted of Dominique Perrier on keyboards and Roger Rizzitelli on drums. Their first (self-titled) of three albums was released in the same year as Jean-Michel Jarre’s, “Oxygene.” Knowledgeable Jarre fans will recognize the names, because both went along on the 1981 China tour...
Amazing hypnotic sweet epic sleezy progey DISCO jams with sooo much class..

Deo
Deo was a Synth Wave band from Oberhausen Germany. Their album with the same title was released in summer of '81.12 wonderful,fresh,cool and punk-like songs with monotnous vocals,keyboards and strange sound effects.The band counts as an uncommon group from the German new wave period,their music is close to Freiwillige Selbstkontrolle and Fehlfarben.It is a wonderful mixture that makes you dance and dream.This made Deo the most sophisticated punkavantgarde band.Their funny texts and usage were impressive indeed.Their producer was the famous Klaus Schulze from Tangerine Dream and from Innovative Communication ,who is is one of the pioneers of electronic music. - http://www.ichwillspass.de
They made only one album.

Frederic Mirage
Melodic synth music somewhat similar to Space and Jean-Michel Jarre circa 76-78. The back cover says that the music was recorded by Frank Martin-Solf in Hamburg, Germany. However, Frederic Mirage could also be a pseudonym of Bernard Estardy, as some tracks on this album were apparently taken from Universal Energy's album.
Awesome swoohsy Spacey Synth..

Parade Ground
Parade Ground were pioneers in EBM and Coldwave (hi Craig),the band consisting of Belgian brothers Pierre and Jean-Marc Pauly.
In 1983 they released their debut EP Moans on the Sly on the New Dance Label. This began their on-going collaboration with producer Daniel B, a member of the seminal Front 242.
The following year they released Man in a Trance (which I don't have..HELP!!) on Front 242's label Mask including the pulsating track The Net. Continuing with more EPs they released 'Dual Perspective', one side produced by Daniel B, the other side produced by Colin Newman of Wire, then came Strange World 12", title-song that was included on the definitive compilation album This is Electronic Body Music in 1987, giving way to their first full length album, entitled Cut Up (1988), followed by a tour in Germany and Sweden . In 1993 , the brothers wrote and composed the vocals on two Front 242 albums 'Up evil' and 'Off'. Original extreme noise industrial sound without concessions...

Judy Nylon
Judy Nylon is an American artist who moved to London in the very early 1970s. She was half of the punk act called Snatch, which also featured Patti Palladin. Only those who lived in New York and London during the era that spanned glam and punk are likely to appreciate her importance, most of which isn't preserved in print, vinyl, or CD. In terms of cultural significance, she has been ranked with Patti Smith, The Raincoats, Chrissie Hynde, of The Pretenders, The Slits, Lydia Lunch, Siouxsie Sioux of Siouxsie & the Banshees and even Nico.
Her Pal Judy record was released in 1982 and has been described as "a classic rainy day bit of sound and song to drift away to"[who?]. It was co-produced by Judy Nylon and Adrian Sherwood of On-U Sound and Tackhead.
She is the Judy in Brian Eno's Back In Judy's Jungle[citation needed]. Nylon is responsible for inspiring the Eno version of ambient music[citation needed] (the back cover of his Discreet Music contains his version of how this happened). - Wikipedia®
