Investigate in any length the history of electronic music in Europe and sooner or later you'll run into the name Mark Reeder . A legend amongst those of us raised on the musical experimentalism of early synth pioneers, and later the birth of dance music, Reeder began his journey on the Manchester post-punk scene (in The Frantic Elevators with Mick Hucknall) before setting sail, in 1978, for the avant-garde music/art underground of Berlin where he became a producer, engineer and Factory Records German representative. It was in Berlin that Reeder became embroiled in the new electronic music [...]
Ever since I stumbled across a copy of Kick by White Rose Movement in a bargain basement somewhere in Soho, like the hipster [insert expletive] I am (I'm even wearing chinos today, although I think the fact they are from Primark makes it OK), I have loved the post-punk electro sound.

May68 have just announced their new single, 'White Lies'. Part retro SynthPop, part Tropical, 'White Lies' is a strangely schizophrenic beast. The jangly IndiePop of many of their former Kitsuné label mates sits alongside bouncy analog synth bass and occasionally the track feels like it looses focus.

Buy May68's [...]
