thank you

Cool. Thanks for sharing!

Nice job! Well done on the tracklist - it's a thoughtful thesis. I never considered it myself until now, but the far more "renowned" early synthpop of the time (YMO or Art of Noise as examples) so often had a connection to another genre, as if the electronic instruments were another palette and not so much a core feature of the music itself.

Check this one we are working on: http://rwm.macba.cat/uploads/20130626/13Interruptions_eng.0.pdf
