Oops - I neglected to post the next volume in our ongoing 80s New Wave / Alternative mix series, so sorry! If you haven't already seen this on Youtube, please take a listen now, and rest assured that the next mix is coming VERY SOON!
A few weeks ago I decided to take a look back and see what some of my favorite bands from the New Wave 80s had done after that magical time had passed.
Many bands have long since broken up or joined up with other projects, but I did find a lot of interesting production from many of the groups I really enjoyed, here are some examples for you to check out. Some of the songs are what you have come to expect, others have gone in new directions. Please listen, enjoy, and most importantly, support the bands that you still enjoy by visiting their sites, buying their music and attending their shows. Let me know what you think and have fun!
