Minimal Wave Records

nice to see transvolta in the list…one of my first treasures so always a little special

Yes, I was surprised too to see it in the playlist. Dan Lacksman rules

He had his ‘moments’ 

I always try to afford little surprises - not always the rarest and obscurest gems but great (pop)music that must be heard by some more then only the hard-line collectors…  :wink:

[quote author=“Spartak”]He had his ‘moments’ 

I like Dan Lacksman a lot, in the 70’s with Electronic System and side projects (like Transvolta for example) and in the 80’s with Telex of course. He’s also a very good producer.

Transvolta, huh?
I’ve never heard it, eventhough I have tried to collect Telex related stuff (unfortunately, you can’t collect all the stuff they did, as you’d end up with lounge jazz records from the early 70s… and Deep Forest)...

but I’ll be sure to check this one out! Thanks for the tip.

It exists on 7” and 12” (b-side of “Toute petite la Planète” from Plastic Bertrand, also a song from Dan Lacksman). Also check out Darcman: Cycle/ Rayons (7” from 1980 on Vogue) also a related project from Dan Lacksman!

Electronic System came over as a complete Moroder imitation to me…nice but not very original.
The b-side of transvolta is nice as well but i prefer disco computer!

There is also a 12” with disco computer / you’re disco on Pinnacle.

Maybe one lp (Disco Computer), but there are 5 lp’s from Electronic System, which are more early moog synth tunes.
