Bachelorette From: Christchurch, New York, United States After Newcastle (see feature Newcastle United ), Christchurch is the next most featured city outside of the US on this year's Devil's blog. Following on from the recent feature on City Kids Records ( Christ You Know It Ain't Easy ) today's post is on the oddly captivating home recording tinkerer Annabel Alpers aka Bachelorette. Annabel has a sound all of her own, a sound that just has to be [...]
I am now a contributor to the blog for Dossier Journal ! I made my first post about the BBC4 Documentary Synth Britannia , which is what I spent 90 illustrious minutes heavily absorbed in last night per Devine's recommendation. Here is the documentary in its (near) entirety. The 9th installment was taken offline for some God-awful reason.
We were joined by guest DJ Nick Hills (with a silent H) and his trusty box of seven-inch disques des années Sixties. Verity was busy finishing her PhD, and so there were just three. Here's the setlist, with our picks of the night, including TWO Kinks cover versions - one in French and one on Synths: Sarah Devo – Patterns David Bowie – Fashion Roxy Music – The Thrill of it All Les Roche Martin – Les [...]
classic video alert!! disco new wave synth pop from 1979 Silicon Teens was the band of Mute Records creator Daniel Miller (music and vox). Mute would later be home to such acts as Depeche Mode, Erasure, Moby and Goldfrapp, to name only few. [via Synthtopia ]
"What you got there? That ain't no fiddle." "Mister...this here's a cotton-pickin', finger-lickin', barbecued, 110-volt Nashville Moog." In 1972, Gyl Trythall made an "experimental" album called C... Continue reading "Gil Trythalls, 'Nashville Moog'" >
Aujourd'hui, parlons d'une curiosité éminemment sympathique de l'histoire du rock : les Silicon Teens . Le projet, né de l'imagination débridée de Daniel Miller - fondateur de Mute Records, le label de Depeche Mode , et compositeur/producteur de The Normal -, est inusité et loufoque sous tous ses aspects. Le groupe fondé en 1980 était, en premier lieu, fictif : les quatre "membres" se nommaient Darryl, Jacki, Paul and Diane, mais n'existaient pas; tout était en réalité réalisé par Miller et des acteurs engagés spécialement pour l'occasion jouaient les rôles [...]
This will be my last post before the new year as I'm heading off to Poland for the festivities. I'll leave you all a bumper post whilst I'm away and I'm sure Haydn can drum you something up for the new year. Please stand for the first lady of Motown, Mary Wells...

In 1972's Adventure Comics #418, a women's self defense organization... ...turns out to be a front for something sinister. In 1994's Captain America #431, a project to champion gender equality by unlocking women's full potential... ...turns out to be a front for something sinister. In 2007's Countdown to Infinite Crisis , a seemingly begin women's [...]
Quelques reprises diverses et variées beaucoup écoutées ces derniers temps, à boire et à manger avec pour commencer l'indie kid le plus adulé et décrié du moment. Julien Dore "I put a spell on you" (Screamin Jay Hawkins cover) Je fais partie de ceux qui ont aimé la présence incongrue et l'improbable victoire d'un tel trublion dans une émission grand public, et pas seulement parce qu'il aime porter un t-shirt Herman Düne et chanter du Moldy Peaches au Yukulélé. Quoiqu'il arrive [...]
