Religious Overdose - I Said Go / Alien To You (7'' 1981)

Religious Overdose were the first band of Alex Novak, later with The Tempest and above all with Venus Fly Trap. They did just few tracks on singles (one is ripped here, then we have another 7'', "25 Minutes" and a 12'' "The Girl With The Disappearing Head", probably their best release) and compilations, we can describe them as a experimental wave or a kind of alternative post punk.

Pas De Deux - Des Tailles (MLP 1983)

Pas De Deux represented Belgium for the 1983 edition of the Eurovision Song Contest. The mainstream audience did not understand this unconventional song (a simple tune and just one line of text: 'Rendez-vous. Maar de maat is vol, en mijn kop is toe'). The band ended third from last. Nonetheless 'Rendez-Vous' became a big summer hit in Belgium that year. Pas De Deux released one mini-album, Des Tailles (where Instant Karma and Cold Turkey are written by John Lennon) and a couple of singles.

Tracklisting:

A1 Mani Meme
A2 Lits Jumeaux
A3 Take A Cigarette 1 (Short Version)
B1 Instant Karma
B2 Cold Turkey / Axe Ends (Medley)

Human Vanity

This post reminds me something...Why the humans need always to boost their ego to show that "they know"? Is not possible simply to do a normal link with the real person who did this compilation instead of using even my logo but changing the name? Of course, the "Música para reuniones secretas. vol I" is the 7'' from underground compilation, that this guy decided to be HIS compilation. Yes there's the "thanks to", but what's the use?

Lately i started to be totally fade up of a lot of persons, also downloaders/users of my blog.

I will reprise a topic that i also used on MW forum

With my blog, i just want to promote culture, and in this case, musical culture. This is what i do anyway in my job as journalist, reviewing famous or unknown albums, doing interviews to Vince Clarke or to Humour Malade, just to say 2 estreme positions.

In the ripping there are at least 2 negative effects. First, The ripping is increasing day by day the prices of records .. 5 / 6 years ago bands as the Factory or Schleimer K, just to do two examples, where not so "famous" as now, and it was possible to buy them for a normal price, in fact i did in the past, buying for a kind of nothing records that now r is nearly impossible even to find. Second, a new generation of so called 'experts' are born. They just download some data files from internet (that we call mp3) and they think they know all about music, not even buying the records when are out, not supporting the good labels as Annalogue, Minimal Wave, Brouillard Definitif and the others.

In fact another point that i would like to clarify is that for me is very important to NOT RIP the things that r still available to buy (in stock) from the Labels we all like. They do a great and difficoult job, with a small quantity of copies, they simply have to survive to print other things.

I dont know, maybe i'm too much 'extreme' and i pay attention to things that are not so important, but at least my passion is real and i feel it on my skin every day..

Underground Life - Noncurance/Black-Out! (7'' 1979)

Underground Life borned in 1977, during the punk era, founded by the drummer Lorenzo LaTorre. Giancarlo Onorato, the well-known leader of the band, joined last. In 1979 was printed their first 45, 'Noncurance/Blackout!' on Ivoire, exposed in the shop windows of the London Rough Trade as “italian punk rock”. Just few years later they will be totally involved in the Italian New Wave sounds.
