Dramatis



Dramatis was essentially the backup band for Gary Numan in the late 70's, early 80's. Gary Numan appears only on the track "Love Needs No Disguise"...
This masterpiece of kitch synth has a little of everything — mock symphonics, electro-disco, to mainstream pop rock.

An enjoyable listen, it will leave you chuckling with delight!

Landscape




Landscape began to experiment with computer programmed music and electronic drums in the late 1970s making records in the emerging genres of electronic dance music and synthpop. This Britishish electro/pop/jazz band from London led by Richard Burgess, producer of Visage, King and Spandau Ballet and onetime soft-rocker (as a member of Easy Street).. After the release of their 3rd LP, Landscape became a trio and recorded under the name Landscape III.

The sound is high-tech synth, with a touch of slick and polished Disco. Perfect for sophisticated dance parties, but the songs retain a lyrical cleverness that prevents total bland-out. Not quite an '80s version of 10cc, Landscape played rhythmic rock, but with a heavy dose of jazzy fusion.

Att Som



I recently found this Swedish No Wave / New Wave gem by trolling the newsgroups searching for obscurities...

I couldn't find much info on this Swedish delight except that Hans Thunberg of Elegi produced this album.

The sound is deep and dark at times, then moments of jittery abstract wave come through the mix.

A great find!!

Easy Going



Easy Going were an Italian disco group named after a famous club in Rome. Their first hit, "Baby I Love You" (1978), was produced by Giancarlo Meo and arranged by Claudio Simonetti, both of whom went on to become major names in the Hi-NRG and Italo Disco scene.

These are some smooth spacey, Italo Disco jams, that is sure to please your need for sleeze..
