The Wednesday Rewind
Posted by Eric in Favorites, Mix, Random, The Yellow Stereo, Videos
First I want to apologize for everyone for my lack of posts. I started back to school last week, and on top of that I work two jobs. So I’ve been slammed big time.
For todays issue of the Wednesday rewind, we ditch the boombox and cardboard, and grab our friendly synth, and make sweet music. We also get personal… but not in the “in your face” sort of way. While I dig 80’s music in general, I particularly like synth music, and especially New Wave 80’s. So I hope you thoroughly enjoy listening to my mini-mix (if it were a tape it would be Side-A) .
Today is also a special issue because each track has a classic video to go along with it. The “Take on Me” video is one of my favorites of all time, and “Maniac” just makes me want to run in place. You will also see Simon le Bon rocking out with the ladies in the video for “Rio”, and the boys from Devo cracking that whip in “Whip it”.
There will surely be another Wednesday Rewind focused in this genre of music. Til then cheers.
