France-the 1980s. A local radio and studio system almost unsurpassed in Europe - add brilliantly inventive labels and producers with a sense of fun & adventure & the result ?
A golden age of Synth-Pop – Post-Disco..inventing the future ..celebrating the chanson of the past. Updating that for a new generation & a new dancefloor.
Virtually neglected until now - only the heads knowing...
Presented in the classic 45 (Quarante Cinq) 7" format - the way that these great records were produced for the radio and were meant to be heard at that moment..
Now, the "savoir" is yours also.
Hard to find 7"s by elusive artistes...
Glorious vocals ,soaring synths and irresistible basslines it’s all here ..
Bon écoute !
