#electroclash #2000s

Sorry, I got mixed up. The previous track was a remix by John Lord Fonda, who also wrote this song, which is the "rather haunting" one.

#1990s #Americana

Yes, I remember being young...

#1980s #NewWave

A really cool (and quintessentially "British 1980s") song, Good Technology by Red Guitars.

#2000s #Britain #Indie

If this doesn't get your head bopping up and down, there's something wrong. Uberly catchy experimental pop from the 2000s.

A little-known love song by 90s-era OMD, Walking on Air, here performed live. Lovely and inventive sound palette, and beautiful tones of bitterness, loss and longing in the vocal.

#Kraftwerk

A sinister and haunting cover of Kraftwerk's Showroom Dummies by French musician Para One.

#1990s #Britain #Scottish #femme

The rare full-length version of Annie Lennox's song Little Bird. I love the outro!

#Kraftwerk #RobotPop #1990s

The Brothers Kraft with the longest version ever recorded (AFAIK) of their funky meisterwerk, Music Non Stop. This was performed at Edinburgh's Playhouse Theatre in 1991.

#1990s #dance #acid

The terrific album version of the Shamen's 1992 hit Phorever People. Note the exciting change of key towards the end!

#1980s #Britain #miserablism

Post-Twotone melodrama from the Fun Boy Three. Oddly catchy.

#1980s #club

Funky soul bliss from The Pool, with his 1983 hit Jamaica Running.

#1990s #dance #alternative

A slow-burner, this one, but give it time! Banco de Gaia's masterful multi-tonal dance piece, Drippy, which featured on the Pi (1999) soundtrack.

#1980s #funk #soul #dance #club

Dutch pianist Jasper van 't Hof with this 1984 hit, Pili Pili.

#1980s

A nice song, which begins and builds up in phases - Nowhere Girl by B-Movie.

#1980s #electronic

A little-known track by Depeche Mode, But Not Tonight, found at the end of the reissue of their excellent Black Celebration album (1986).

#1990s #rock #Scotland

I don't know Idlewild at all, but I do love this song of theirs, especially the bit where half of the instruments disappear and it builds back up again!

#rock #1990s #indie

A literally-unknown band called Frisby had this song on a magazine (possibly VOX Magazine) compilation CD at some time in the 1990s. I cannot find a single mention of this band on the Internet. How about that?!

#2000s #pop #electroclash

One-time girl band Discoblaster with their 2005 song Fading. Quite fun!

The original 1978 cult song Warm Leatherette, which launched the Mute Records label.
Then, a 2004 remix/cover by electroclash artist Glomag.
