| | SynthPoP For The Masses - REVIEWS List 5/2003 |
 | | This is the second full-length album by the well-known Spanish SynthPoP band "Estatuas de Sol" from Madrid. |  | | The Echoing Green are one of the few bands who periodically bring out new SynthPoP albums. |  | | They combine both SynthPoP 'hand-made' and industrial 'machine-made' very effectively, and both their music and the vocalist are very promising. |

 | | Another must-hear track is Nevarakka's "Why." I never imagined that female vocals sounded so good with synthpop until now (not that they were any bad to begin with) but the songs I heard on this album really took synthpop to a new level in my personal opinion. |  | | There was not one song on the entire album that I did not like. |  | | I recently had access to Synthpop For a Darkened Room vol.3 and had to listen to it because I love synthpop music so much. |

| | Let's Dance: Synthpop in the 90's |
 | | The songs on this album do indicate a lack of synthpop in the middle of the 90's - that is more a reflection of my lack of knowledge about songs from that time than a lack of songs. |  | | With grunge and industrial music taking over the record companies and the radio in the late 80's and early 90's, it seemed that Synthpop music was doomed to disappear. |  | | As with the "Who the @#$% is This" disc, most of these bands are European and many of them come out of Germany and Scandinavian countries - they seem to really like Synthpop over there. |

| | Amazon.com: Synthpop Club Anthems 2: Music: Various Artists |
 | | "Synthpop Club Anthems" was meant to introduce people to a variety of dance music sounds by bands that not only maintain a fun electronic edge grounded in recent technology and musicianship, but who also have not forgotten the value of a good song. |  | | People who were unfamiliar with the modern synthpop scene found themselves pleasantly surprised with the mix of club-friendly, high-energy music, with melodic vocals and meaningful lyrical content. |  | | If you need to listen to music for that workout or a long car trip, this is a needed CD for all synthpop lovers. |

| | The history of synthpop |
 | | They played a happy and naive sort of synthpop, like their hit single "Just Can't Get Enough" in 1981, until Vince Clarke left the band to form Yazoo (called Yaz in North America) and later Erasure. |  | | Other examples of synthpop bands from the 1980s are A-ha, Bronski Beat, New Order, Soft Cell, Visage and Yello. |  | | Electronic, Saint Etienne and Kim Wilde are English artists with music close to synthpop. |

 | | Apoptigma Bezerk, VNV Nation and Iris are producing their own visions of synthpop which border on the frantic energy of rave music. |  | | These bands didn't grow up in a synthpop vacuum and they are expressing this by borrowing from other genres. |  | | What ties all of these bands together is their willingness to innovate, and to explore how synthpop can grow. |

| | SynthPoP For The Masses - Interviews |
 | | I think the presence of the guitar in our songs makes the music instantly recognizable and distinguishes it from other synthpop bands. |  | | I hope that my guitar will move people who prefer more guitar-driven music to explore the realm of synthpop. |  | | You present dark electronic music based on minimalist sound-structures in combination with acoustic guitar playing. |

| | SynthPoP For The Masses - REVIEWS List 2/2003 |
 | | On the whole "Earth Rising" is an exciting release; because it delivers varied tracks of classic SynthPoP to FuturePoP and breaks the prejudice that music based on 80s sounds has to sound old-fashioned. |  | | For example, the songs "I Want You" and "Automat" really reminds the listener of early songs by "Human League" or "Heaven 17". |  | | With this release "DAYS OF FATE" strengthens their position within the SynthPoP scene as one of the best German SynthPoP bands. |

 | | Multi-faceted electro-pop tunes collide with multi-layered electro and synthpop arrangements, with songs that vary between dreamy melodies and uncompromising danceability. |  | | SYRIAN: Following last year's full length "De-Synchronized" which included synthpop/future-pop club hits No Atmosphere, and She is The Dark, Italian synthpop duo Syrian are back with an MCD released on A Different Drum titled "Space Overdrive", including three new songs and various remixes. |  | | This newest album however, takes Moulin Noir's music to a whole new level, blending those lush roots together with a modern edge, creating a 16 track album that crosses many tastes and electronic pop boundaries, from new wave, to synthpop, to darkwave, to gothic and beyond. |

 | | There are plenty of great synthpop radio stations out there that play some pretty awesome music, I'm not sure I'd contribute all that much. |  | | I wish I could post music again, but it just doesn't seem feasible. |  | | I especially encourage you to visit DJ Lex's excellent site. |
