Various ‎Artists – "Cold Waves Of Color Volume 4" (Color Disc ‎– COLOR LP 06) 2016



Yet more minimal synth cold wave classics from Color Tapes' classic early eighties period. All the usual suspects are here again.....most of them involving Gary Ramon (latterly of The SunDial). All previously available only on the medium of cassette, and have now been expertly remastered from the original masters to appear sparkly and as crisp as newly born babe. Its almost incomprehensible that these babes are now approaching forty years old; but they are!

Tracklisting:

A1 –Beatmixer - Danse Electrique
A2 –Silicon Valley - Going Out
A3 –Berserk In A Hayfield - Start Of Something
A4 –Disintegrators - Transmissions Unknown
A5 –Silicon Valley - ZX
A6 –WeR7 - Word Perfect
B1 –Mystery Plane - I'll Get You For This
B2 –Echophase - Train
B3 –Berserk In A Hayfield - Optical
B4 –Lives Of Angels - Gateway
B5 –Beatmixer - The Beatmixer

I thought that by now I heard all the relevant minimal electronic (pre midi) music and then you post all these beauties!

Sadly, there's only one more to go...vol 5, later today.

These are great, thank you.

I know you've previously posted Color Tapes - have you got any more, especially the compilations A Fistful Of Color and An Hour Of Color Volumes 1, 2, or 3?

Jonny Zchivago said...

I got 'Purple Twilight', 'An Hour Of Color vol.2 &3'...and there maybe another that i can't remember.

Chris Sessions said...

Can't wait to listen to these, thank you

Purple Twilight was the one that got me into Color - and I would love to hear any you've got. Cheers.
