A Compilation Of Obscure 80's Australian New Wave, Post Punk & Alternative Music
The Land Downunder was the home to many amazing and inspiring bands that went criminally unnoticed . The problem was that back in the day there was almost no way to unearth them. Most music in the 80's was what you heard on the radio or your mate played for you on their album/cassette tape. There were no streaming and no internet radio station. A number of bands made it to mainstream in North America & Europe, Real Life, Pseudo Echo, Men At Work, INXS, Midnight Oil & Ice House, to name a few. So in this video I've covered 50 Australian bands, one song from each for those of you folks who would like to hear what other Aussie bands sounded like and to research their music. BTW if you like t...

No need to explain but a couple of right owners blocked this one too, however I have come back with a new line up. This was a popular one and shouldn't be lost so easily.

“Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.” Thomas Edison So as you likely noticed, part 42 was taken down due to 2 copyrighted songs, but there's absolutely no giving up. Although it's a headache, I need to make sure these mixes stay alive as a invaluable source of entertainment, inspiration and research. Anyhow I hope you lik...

So part 41 also got blocked, thanks for labels/bands that are against free marketing. Anyhow I have replaced them with some fun songs that should be your cup of tea. Part 41 is a more pop oriented mix and lots of fun new wave tunes, less post punk stuff, still a few obscurities to discover though, so it won't disappoint you folks.

Hello to you all my faithful followers. Here we have a little post-punk mix that should not disappoint you folks, of course if you're into the darker side of the 80's universe. In this hour-and-half long mix there are a number of songs that didn't appear in old, deleted videos, so I guess it means discovering some more 80's goodness. I have added the song list below, so there's no need for gues...

No, you're not seeing double. I had to re-post part 39 as another no-name band came out of the woodwork and had that video blocked worldwide. Maybe some things are better to remain in obscurity? Anyhow I've replaced that song with another and re-uploaded, although it really puts the series out of the sequence.

Can't believe we are at part 40, but here we are with another mix of lesser known 80's tunes. Listen to the whole mix and let me know how many songs you knew before and which song stood out for you. I hope this massive archive of obscure 80's music doesn't fall victim to greed and shortsightedness and remain a source for entertainment, inspiration and research.

Yeah, you're not imagining this had been posted two weeks ago. So what transpired, a single song from a band that almost no one knows blocked the video in all countries! I guess they don't like free marketing and prefer to remain unknown until the end of time. So I have gone ahead and replaced that one song with another and have reuploaded the mix. I really really like this one and I wouldn't h...

Happy Friday you folks out there. Another Friday and another mix of songs that were buried under the weight of 80's mainstream scene. Not that all that remained obscure were gems but the key was to dig into the dirt to find the gems. I do hope you find this mix enjoyable and let me know in the comment section which song you didn't know that you really really liked. Songs are: 00:00 Artistic Con...
Obscure 80's Albums (Part 82) Edge Park - Personal Fable
Просмотров 1,5 тыс.5 месяцев назад
Edge Park were a quintet from Ithaca, a college town in upstate New York. To say they were the prototypical college-rock band would be right on the money, as all five members attended Ithaca College at the time, and seemingly made headway on their school station, WICB. Though they state in their bio that The Cure and the The Church made the biggest impression on them, Edge Park's mildly downcas...
Obscure 80's albums (Part 81) Hang The Dance "Ghost Bloody Country"

Hang The Dance was a post-punk, new wave band, formed in 1984 in Leeds. They released one single "Laughing Jack Said" on Well Hung Records. They were then signed to Leeds Independent Label and released another single in 1986 titled "Horseflesh" . Their only album was "Ghost Bloody Country" which is a really solid record IMO). Fans of bands such as Play Dead, Into A Circle, Snake Corps, and the ...

Obscure 80s Albums Part 80 The New Day - Voices
Просмотров 1,8 тыс.5 месяцев назад
Ok fellows, it's time I continued where I left of, posting complete obscure albums. Our number 80th album is from "The New Day", an obscure alternative rock band from the Houston, Texas area. They released only one album on an even more obscure label, Morning Glory Records. Recorded at Sound Arts Recording Studio in 1986, this is a good (not great) album that has a few nice cuts and couple of f...

Hey Daniel, i was wondering if you can identify this song ruclips.net/video/S64aNK_ay9Q/видео.html&si=EVLmyFAlAHLLyJGl
Just found my cassette - but no cassette player! Thanks for this
Working on a new Simon Byrne album as we speak - June 2024!
1927 should be on the list! One of my favorites
How can I get a copy of house of birds on cd?
Every song on this thread is GOOD!
I will donate ASAP 80zforever I appreciate your channel ❤
Wow! GREAT MIX!❤
I bought this record after seeing the video for This Is Love. Still have it plus all the records I collected all through the 80’s. I loved finding obscure bands like Wire Train, Glass Tiger, Psuedo Echo, Bang Bang…even Nik Kershaw. The 80’s were the best. One band I loved that was famous in England is New Model Army.
🎉🎉Great mix 😊 Thank you 🎉
I worked with a frank cohen who turned me on to these guys! His sons band
if anyone ever hears a song that sings : "she was born on a magic island. there's a certain anthology. i was already on the outside, i wanted to be what i wanted to be" lemme know, please.
Australia produced some really top bands in the 80s
The Sooooooooooooound!
No shortage of classics! Thank you D!
White Night the best!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Also did you ever manage to find that 'missing 80s song' that people were asking you about on reddit? If you ever did I missed out on it. Thanks.
Hey thanks for all the music you've uploaded over the years. Do you still maintain the uploads on pirateb@y? Some have no seeders. Was also wondering if there is a single torrent that has all of your uploads rounded up into one download, or at least a torrent that has all of the .torrent files in it? Cheers!
Just how big of a marshmallow are we talking about here?
Super re ok
Another great mix😊🎉 Thank you:)
это великолепно все песни прекрасны идеальный альбом ❤❤❤
Great 🎉mix 😊Thanks
I saw these guys open for Missing Persons at the Ventura County Fair and I never forgot them. They were great. (Better than Missing Persons that day)
The koolness keeps coming😍😍
"In Your Eyes" *"See Me Now" "Beside You" *"Pictures"
I have been listening to popular music since 1959 when I was four years old and my dear sainted grandma turned on the enormous old radio (called a wireless in Australia) and stood me in front of it to hear Doris Day singing Que Sera, Sera. How many tens of thousands of songs have I listened to over the decades since? So I picked up Life Part II on vinyl in the mid-eighties after seeing the video of This is Love on MTV. I played the rest of the album on my turntable. Rodeo, Shilo, Religious Holiday were punchy and melodic and great but then I got to *Dark Intentions* at the end. I was somehow teleported to the 1920s to hear a scratchy old 78 rpm recording of a sad waltzy ballad with an impossibly evocative French horn(?) solo and a wistful piano and lyrical references to cable cars and rain. Julian’s voice, softer and different in this song, almost cracks in the retelling of an overnight romantic episode: “Daybreak / Oh what a sight / But without you / I’m in the dark.” Please listen to it at 38:30 Never have I heard anything like it, before or since, during my sixty-plus years of listening to music. When have I ever been so touched by a song? (Only Jethro Tull’s Heavy Horses and Slow Marching Band come to mind, along with a few others, like Vincent by Don McLean and Abraham, Martin and John by Dion.) Thank you, Julian. Thanks, too, to this channel for posting this great album. If Bang-Bang had put out a dozen albums of course I’d have bought them all. Jon W.
Extraordinarily brilliant tracks❤ Ha, and I thought I was an expert on post punk indie music. I don’t know any of these 😂
I've got a bunch of songs from a late 80s Albuquerque new wave band called The Violet Hour. Would you be interested in them for your collection?
Hey Michael, yeah that would be awesome if you could send them to 80zforevermusic@gmail.com
@@80zforever I just emailed them to you.
@@MichaelMartinez-mr3uy I believe I may have found a page where bands they played with back in the day are also listed, I would like to know more about them please did they have any physical releases besides demos?
@@MichaelMartinez-mr3uy The info I have I would like for you to confirm! youtube will delete any links I posts so I will have to send these links to you another way.
@@MichaelMartinez-mr3uy I need you to confirm some info I have but I can't send it through youtube sadly
correction: Insanity - Play Loud and Dance
You compilations are superb! I think I have listened to all of them during the years. They have really expanded my 80s music understanding. Greetings from Norway!
I wouldn't say that 'Hey Girl' was an astonishing success. It should have gone a lot higher than #60.
First I've heard the term "minimal wave" but I like the music. Thank you!
Back again the "A trip to rare hits... Part 18... Pleaseee... Or I need the list of songs.😢😢😢😢 Pleasee
Meo245, Venetians, Dear Enemy, Sardine v, The Expression, Laughing Clowns... Wow. Haven't heard some of these for years. Big Thumbs up.
The Expression Total Eclipse of the Heart- the intro is Alternative 80s perfection.
Love it 🖤 so 80's and dark 🦇 at perfect balance
Wonderful music🎉❤ Thank you so much 😊
