What's blasting in your headphones?

Since we're on an international music kick here, thought I'd post up a song from one of my favorite bands. First heard these guys on one of the late shows back in the early 90's. Can't remember if it was on Carson or Letterman... Regardless, these guys blew me away! Have been listening to them ever since.

 
Have a mix of music playing at work which people refer to by various names; New Retro Wave, Synth Pop, Retro Synth, NeoSynth... Whatever you want to call it, it's pure nostalgia for someone like me whose musical development was in the late 70's and throughout the 80's.. The music is keyboard heavy, using many of the synthesizers from that era (or soft-synths for you home recording types).

I refer to it as soundtrack music to 80's movies that never existed..

Didn't even know I needed that this morning until I listened. That was great.

I couldn't help thinking of 'Fever' with that one part of the riff. That's what I'm now listening to. Down the rabbit hole I go. [emoji846]
