VA - Musik Music Musique Vol. 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 [2020 - 2023] (9CD) Genre: Synth Pop, New Wave, Rock, Electronic Quality: CBR 320 kbps VA - Musik Music Musique 1.0, 1980 The Dawn Of Synth Pop [2020] This set explores the arrival of synth pop and the dawn of a new musical era. 58 tracks including songs by Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark, The Human League, Ultravox, Toyah, Spandau Ballet, Kim Wilde, Philip Lynott, The Buggles - And Underground Figureheads - Fad Gadget, Suicide, M, John Foxx, D. A. F., Dalek I Love You, Visage, The Residents, Yello, and many others. As the dust settled following the punk rock explosion, countless new genres began to solidify and coalesce. Chief among these, in a field of it's own, was Synth Pop - a suitably descriptive umbrella for the new electronic pop sound which had emerged over the previous couple of years. Musik Music Musique captures a snapshot of this milestone moment in music. Independent novelties and curiosities sit alongside big budget pop perfection. Artists who would go on to sell millions take their first steps into this new landscape whilst others make the briefest contribution before the wave moves on. For every too-cool-for-school Human League there is a so-far-out-it's-in Yello. In retrospect, the speed at which these new instruments and production techniques were absorbed by such a variety of artists astounds and confounds. Not to be confused with so many synth-pop-by-numbers budget releases, Musik Music Musique is an essential and insightful compendium of a place and time unique in musical chronology.

Over 50 tracks showcasing the innovation and exploration that gave rise to what would become the decade's pre-eminent musical form. 2020's Musik Music Musique set, we present the sequel, this time looking at the electronic pop scene as it evolved from curio and novelty into a major movement and began to dominate the airwaves. Featuring a plethora of acts who would quickly become household names (many of which endure today) and exploring the wide variety of directions electronic instruments took both the mainstream and independent music in. Musik Music Musique 2. 0 embraces both the pure pop aesthetic of a new generation of aspirational, defiantly polished artists and those who embraced electronic music in the aftermath of the post-punk explosion. From chart bothering, High Street nightclub anthems to self-pressed one-offs and cassette releases, this set provides an overview of the scene as it blossomed and an introduction to a wealth of fascinating, lesser known material.

A period which saw the 1980's credible musical landscape evolve from gritty post-punk to shamelessly aspirational polished pop. Featuring countless artists who would become household names (many of which remain active today) alongside lesser-known scene mainstays, independent innovators and novelty opportunists, Musik Music Musique 3. 0 explores the evolution of synth pop from anything resembling a 'scene' into the standard musical form of the day, soon to be embraced by everybody from power balladeers to quasi-rock stadium acts. From chart staples and nightclub anthems to rarities, curios and collectables, this set gives equal airtime to all, basking in the breadth of ideas and innovation being explored as the musical world moved towards the mid-80s. Eclectic, endlessly innovative and, most importantly, enduringly listenable, Music Musik Musique 3. 0 continues where it's predecessors left off, and sets the scene for forthcoming 1983 and 1984 editions.
