Dokument: Ten Highlights in the History of Popular Music 1981>1982



Excellent minimal synth/wave,experimental compilation from 1982. Released by Vinyl Magazine through Roadrunner Records (RR 9940). Vinyl was a Dutch music-monthly (with English translation included) magazine that specializes in covering innovating, sincere rock music. As such Vinyl is unique, without ever forgetting the people and bands that made new and exciting things happen in the past. Interviews, background information, reviews, a list of all new releases, etcetera, all brought together in a beautifully laid-out magazine, with lots of excellent photographs. A must for everyone [who - P@ndora] takes the new rock music to heart. An important item is Vinyl's flexi. Each month you'll find enclosed in the magazine two brand new songs by two, sometimes well-known, sometimes very obscure, bands. The past two years Vinyl released on it's flexi's over 40 songs by as many as 35 bands from Holland, Belgium, Germany, the US and the UK. A rather impressive collection of new rock music. And a good enough reason to release a selection of these songs on a real Vinyl compilation album. A Document.

A1 Eyeless In Gaza - Talking mythic language
A2 Minioon - Zugehorigkeitsgefuhl
A3 Schleimer K - The stag
A4 Mekanik Kommando - Connection-disconnection
A5 Virgin Prunes - Mad bird in the wood
B1 Plus Instruments - Bodies
B2 Die Partei - Strahlsund
B3 Tox Modell - Paris St. Lazare
B4 Cabaret Voltaire - Over and over
B5 Minimal Compact - Introspection

Ultra (compilation tape)

And why not start off with those "useful, if hard to find, compilations"? First up is the Ultra compilation tape on Lebel Period:





Ultra was how the Dutch called post-punk and an evening with the same name was organised [in Oktopus in Amsterdam - P@ndora] by Wally van Middendorp (of Minny Pops), Rob Scholte and Harold Schellinx (both of The Young Lions) from 29 September 1980 until 18 February 1981.

All the concerts where taped and videoed and LeBel Period, the label of Tox Modell, released this excellent compilation. [...] A very lively post-punk and experimental compilation. What Colonial Vipers is for Dutch experimental music from the living room, this is the one for the live recordings.
