Musik Music Musique 1979 - The Roots of Synth Pop
The fourth volume in this critically acclaimed series - this time a prequel, exploring the transitional year 1979, a period which saw electronic pop move from curio, fad and novelty status into the credible post-punk pop landscape. A story of experimental and eccentric artists, outsider aesthetics and the fusion of the spirit of punk with a pop sensibility.
Featuring an array of artists who would become household names and dominate the pop scene during the first half of the 1980s, alongside lesser-known scenesters, independent innovators and one-off scene hoppers, Musik Music Musique 1979 provides a perfect backdrop to our previous three volumes. Call it a prequel, call it back story - packed with great pop music, a twist of the weird and wonderful and plenty of floor-fillers, this is a snapshot of a vital year in the wake punk rock, when a new path suggested throughout the 1970s was finally cut, paved and explored.
Eclectic, endlessly innovative and, most importantly, enduringly listenable, Music Musik Musique 1979 is an international adventure, throwing the spotlight on those brave enough to take the first steps into the rainbow of electronic music that would come to define the 1980s.
