track 028

helen. she can do no wrong. most people recognize her for 'zanzibar' and 'witch', but here's another good one...


helen - tunis tunis

track 027

bay city rollers - don't stop the music

track 026

ceramic hello - sampling the blast furnace

everyone needs to write the vinyl-on-demand label, and thank them for their excellent re-issue treatment. without V-O-D, i'd be having to shell out way too much $$$ to track down the originals...

track 025

last time i asked around, it is still up in the air whether or not this is FINALLY going to be given proper treatment and re-issued on vinyl. as of current, this is still one of my favorite cassette-only releases.

from the 11 track tape, 'space museum' :


solid space - a darkness in my soul

track 024

this is the song for summer:


big ben tribe - tarzan loves the summer nights

track 023

special request - salsa smurph

track 022

ryuichi sakamoto - the garden of poppies

track 021

crazy gang - arabian nights

track 020

track 015

this one is for ms. papaya.

unfortunately, this is just the 'original' version. the best way to hear this track is on riccardo cioni's 1982, vol. 3 mix. in fact, the best way to hear almost any of these songs would be on any cioni mix, as he hums and sings along AND adds great special effects over the tracks.

herb alpert - magic man

track 014

anna - systems breaking down

the end. it's very near!

track 013

get the sweet monies...

harte 10 - money
