Some genuine electro goodness can be found at this amazing FREE MP3 site, smart-music.net. [Unfortunately, the link doesn’t take you right to the bands/MP3s. Just scroll down to find them — they’re both on the first page.]
SOLVENT >> “Wish“
MYSTERYMEN >> “Waiting“
These two tracks were mainstays on my iTunes playlist for months. Both bands managed to capture the essence of the 1980s for me, but in a completely ageless manner. These two fine cuts aren’t dated but are best swallowed with a dose of nostalgia. And possibly a Bartles & James wine cooler.
Lest I be accused of shameless stealing others “finds”, fellow free music site 3hive also just re-featured Solvent and got to it before me. (Adding insult to injury, Arjan also beat me to the punch by posting a link to Hard-Fi’s “Cash Machine”, a track which was featured on Fluxblog at the end of July and I’ve been enjoying ever since.) Boy, it just doesn’t pay to horde good material!
