Pretty dance-y mix this time around, but in a weird way. I decided to start adding the location and year for each track, because I'm a dork, and I enjoy doing that sort of thing. It turned out kind of 1983-heavy... I guess that was a good year. I was negative 3.

Special thanks to Mutant Sounds, and all my other blog regulars for making my day, every day.

Keine Ahnung - Plastik (Germany, 1983)
Gorilla Aktiv - Die Maske (Germany,1982)
Dopplereffekt - Master Organism/Superior Race (Detroit?, 1995)

Absolute Body Control - Automatic II (Belgium, 1983)
Somnambulist - Things I Was Due To Forget (Belgium, 1983)
A Blaze Colour - Nowhere Else (Netherlands, 1982)
The Tanzdiele - Kleine Schlange (Germany, 1981)

My comrade Andrew Michael turned me on to this group yesterday. Their songs totally blew me away. Anybody who's a fan of The Neon Judgement/Cabaret Voltaire/Absolute Body Control/etc. will probably dig this. It's good to know that they're just around the corner in Houston, which is funny.... because they sound like they're from Europe in the early '80s.

Go listen!

You may have heard, you may have not heard. Filling in for Mr. English this post, I submit my own mixtape for download. Maybe I should start my own blog instead of hijacking my friend's? If you would like a personal mixtape sent to you with different songs email your name and address to obneeley@yahoo.com. Also, to note, this "podcast" is ripped from a mixtape on which all songs come from my record collection. Trebly...
