808 State Discussion

I was just thinking about Dr Walsh the other day.His website (danchester) is gone.

Smiley is still around-I got my optibuk from him last year (he had a spare).
I think loads read the forum and don't post at the moment well let's face it-nothing much is happening at the minute.

One Second- a 1987 album from Yello. I recently picked it up second hand (well back in early November) and I have played it non stop since. Every song is great-anyone who likes 'Ninety' will find something good in this. Lots of Latin beats and well 'Oh Yeah' is on it but my fave is 'Dr Steiner'. The...

Yes-agree there.

I simply love Kong King and Long Orange.

People don't seem to be outraged here at all about what is happening. If its not the communists, its the te...

John Peel played this last night, on Rephlex Records. Sounds very much like the late eighties 808 State as we loved them. You can hear it at the Wednesday (1st September) 'listen online' link at www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/alt/johnpeel for seven days - it begins about 1hour and twelve minutes into the show...

er steve... power, global dominance and seize oil!

The US controls the world by force.
