    Indietracks Festival / all things C86 and indiepop!

    Thanks Tiny :thumbsup:, I don't own a copy of the song, but I might be tempted to do a sneaky download somehow seeing as it's been stuck in my head all morning.

    The albums thread - 2014

    I've posted this in the Indietracks C86 thread, but am not sure if there's another more suitable thread than this one; this isn't about an album. Anyway, I know I've mentioned how much I love Art is Hard records on here before; wonderful little UK DIY label which has brought us stuff by Joanna...

    What was Brighton like in 1984?

    Ha, I remember spotting Andy the last time PF posted that pic too. Trying to work out who you might be... Spino? Stig? Mark C did indeed work at Virgin in Western Road (at the same time as me), but it didn't open till early summer 1985.

    I remember hearing this at (I think) a Northern Portrait gig 4 or 5 years ago and thinking how bloody amazing it is. Was shocked when I found out who it's by, but it still sounds pretty wonderful to these old ears.

    NSC Electronic Music Thread

    Sorry for being a thread-killer. I'll try and bump it with some electro-indiepop... A classic electro-Ibiza anthem with a shit video? Something more contemporary...

    Indietracks Festival / all things C86 and indiepop!

    I've been falling a little in love with Red Sleeping Beauty again today. I managed to grab the Singles CD on eBay for less than a tenner and have been playing it all afternoon since postie delivered it. Yet more Swedish wonder-pop and strong rumours that some kind of reformation might be on...

    Hit/caught/headed ball in the stand? Join the OFFICIAL squad of unsung Albion "players".

    I remember being right at the front of the East Stand when we played Southampton at the end of the 70’s. The ball came off for a throw-in and I leant over and picked it up. Alan Ball, the little ginger whinger, came over giving me the ‘hurry and give me the ball’ gestures, so I threw it straight...
