Phil Western - Darkstar

Who fancies some Kraftwerk? Kraftwerk - Numbers (Live)

Some people don't know that '80s synth pop band Japan made a final album under the name Rain Tree Crow. It's your lucky day... Rain Tree Crow - Blackwater

So, David Sylvian's ex-wife wanted a track for her new album. No problem - just write something different to anything you've ever released before, play all the instruments and produce it. Absurd talent and the track is absolutely sumptuous. Ingrid Chavez - Whose Trip Is This?
