I took advantage of the recent outage here to put a few new things up over at Circadian Shift: The Outpost. The links list has been revamped, and I've put a new retro MP3 online:
You Remind Me of Goldby The Human League (MP3; 3,286 KB)
While I do have the song on vinyl (as part of the Fascination! EP released in 1983), this particular digitisation is courtesy of Torchomatic from a few years back.
I remember hearing this song for the first time through headphones, and being blown away by how the high-pitched metallic synth effect sounded in my head -- it was like there was a shower of gold particles inside my skull. Very neat.
Anyway, I'm hoping to bring back retro MP3 posts as a regular monthly feature, barring technical difficulties and other interferences. I hope you like it.
Addendum: Right, so I did some Googling and turned up the following linkage which has more information about The Human League, plus various goodies:
- Blind Youth -- "The Early Work of The Human League"
- Secrets Online -- "The Continuing Adventures of The Human League
- www.humanleague.dk
- The Human League: Love and Dancing
Lastly, how about a pic? This is them circa 1984:
