Collage - Mit Den Puppen Tanzen (1984)

Oh my, I've really been slacking haven't I? [Yes, you have, what kind of crappy blog is this?] Sorry about that! Lots of nice things right around the bend, I promise.

I finally had enough time to drop the needle on this 12" tonight. Deutschland: the gift that keeps on giving! This one is particularly interesting to me as it involves members of Stahlnetz and Schwarze Bewegung. Up-tempo tanz beats throughout, lots of synths and female vocals. A great Friday night record. Enjoy!

Track List:

A1 - Mit Den Puppen Tanzen
A2 - Schwarze Nacht
B1 - Niemals Zurück
B2 - Harter Film

Stahlnetz - Wir Sind Glückluch (1982)

Here we have a great LP out of Germany by the synthpop act Stahlnetz. It sounds a bit like a more melodic Grauzone, and is similar to Bizarre Leidenschaft, if you liked that. Hopefully I have some NDW fans out there, so these posts aren't all for not ;-x. This is pretty good throughout, I suppose a notable track would be the single "Vor all Den Jahren", but other favorites would be the opening and closing tracks. Enjoy!

Track List:

A1 - Der Seemann Und Die Stewardeß
A2 - Romantisch
A3 - Fahr Doch Mit Dem Automobil
A4 - Der Wahre Schatz
A5 - Alles Gute
B1 - Schwarzes Gold
B2 - Matrosen
B3 - Vor all Den Jahren
B4 - Im Palast
B5 - Der Falsche Kuß
