Wonderful italo track from '83 (though it takes about a minute to get cooking) from N.O.I.A.
F.Y.I. - This is a group with a Klien & MBO connection...make sure you read the in depth bio here. The cover is a bit "Country Life"esque too if you catch my reference.
The sequenced bass parts get me every time. Looking for love!

The Seebach Band - Bubble Sex (1977)

Kasso - Dancing On The Beach (1984)
NOTE, FOR SOME REASON THIS POSTED AS ONLY 1 MINUTE LONG. THATS BEEN FIXED...
This b-side I love more than the A. Another very pretty italo track, much in the same vein as Tea For Two.

Pierre Moerlen's Gong - Time Is The Key (1979)
Astral-slowgroove-fastsynth-jazz freak out into the stars. This song is so great, and SO short it begs to be listened to on repeat at least 5 times straight. I'm serious...

Tommy Seebach - Hit (1981)
Tommy rocks it as usual. Killer sequenced groove with those oh-so-lush and trippy harmonies with majestic pianos.
Enjoy! "Ohhhh Yeaaah!"

Phyllis Nelson - I Like You (1985)
This song is soooooo damn good! Killer pop tune with bad ass High NRG mid-80s vibe, some nice "Relax"esque digital bass groove going down. "I Like Yooooou!"

Secret Service - Let Us Dance Just A Little Bit More (1985)
Love Love LOVE this Secret Service song. Sweeping and beautiful.
This is one of many wonderful songs by this excellent early 80s synth pop band from Sweden. Definitely do your homework and check out their other great albums and other 12"s too!
You might already know "Flash In The Night" which of their biggest hits (and used for a great climax to one of the RR's favorite movies of '08, Låt den rätte komma in aka Let The Right One In, check it out!)

Nona Hendryx - Transformation (1983)
Here for you is one of my favourite discoveries from the NYC trip. Nona Hendryx - Transformation, killer slow-jam-groove with tons of killer moody vibes, textures, some intense lyrics & great production that is to be expected from the GREAT Material.
"Cash a check, change your sex"
Play it loud!!!

Mr. B - Ibiza Goodbye (1988)
Put this in the "been wanting to post for about a year" category along with many others. From Mr. B circa '88, is this ZYX release, a very pretty instrumental dance track. Hope you like...
In other news, just got back from a few days in NYC, and got TONS of great music I look forward to sharing. (see photo)

Zaine Griff - The Scandinavian (1980)
Cool bowie-ultravoxish track from Zaine Griff circa 1980. Produced by Bowie/T-Rex producer Tony Visconti and... If I recall correctly, I think all the synth work is done by (now big-time composer) Hans Zimmer.
