thats right.
this thread is dedicated to the pioneers of dance.

its all about;
kraftwerk, JMJ, vangelis, depeche mode
giorgio moroder and various other musical gems.

since there are so many other appreciation threads around, why not make
a thread acknowledging the musical geniouses that started it all.

Ah, the beauty of the Arp Odyssay. Got the VSTi emulator - makes lethal sirens.

Oh yeah... uh.

Big fan of Human League and Giorgio Morodor. Are we allowed to talk electrofunk here too?

Well, don't mind me posting these links to these electro sets. These are new stuffs made in the old style for the most part.

Electro Lovers
The Hycon is an awesome electro dj with a very retro-future tip.
CBS Internet radio - some old italo, electro and synthpop is found in some of these sets. I recommend I-F's and X-BOBO's sets here - in particular his high energy sets.

I really like Giorgio Moroder's colourised and re-scored version of Fritz Lang's "Metropolis".

Also, do you remember this?
