new order : the missing link


Video 5-8-6 was recorded for the opening of the Hacienda Club in 1982. The track was a blue print for 'Blue Monday', the best selling 12" record, which "helped to invent techno" and kick-started the idea of rock bands being remixed by dance producers.
Released as a single by Touch Records in 1997, although 2 edited versions had appeared back in 1982.

surf'n'motorik


"Honolulu mountain daffodils was a pet project of Adrian Borland, who released their first album in 1988, citing such influences as Neu! at a time when that probably meant very little to most. I picked up this, their third LP, in 1991 after hearing the remorseless motorik monster "Psychic Hit-list Victim No.8" on a cheap label sampler - it blew me away with its collision of suicide and kraut. It's only 4 minutes long but I could listen to it at full throttle all night, it makes me want to do bad(good) things -"I got psychic Radiation" Yeah !".
Julian Cope.
