Goin’ Old School (with Kid Machine!): Space – Magic Fly

This week we are tuning over the Goin’ Old School reins to Manchester’s Italo/SynthWave guru Kid Machine:

Space – Magic Fly from 1977 "A record that initially really inspired me to to go retro with my projects. BEFORE Daft Punk, this guy Didier Marouni was dressing up like a robot and making amazing ‘ahead of it’s time’ music in 1977. Look out for the random dancing girl and amazing drum playing action.

This week we are tuning over the Goin’ Old School reins to Manchester’s Italo/SynthWave guru Kid Machine:

Clay Pedrini – New Dream from 1984 “A short vid today but worth it and possibly another haircut for 2012. He’s got a great look, his dance moves remind me of ‘trying to spot a fly’’, and I like that!. He kinda’ reminds me of an 80’s Science Teacher, but he and his music are SO fucking cool. I’m told he still performs to this day, he’s a friend on Facebook, I need to hassle him more

Goin’ Old School (with Kid Machine!): Marzio Dance – You Can Do It

This week we are tuning over the Goin’ Old School reigns to Manchester’s Italo/SynthWave guru Kid Machine:

Marzio Dance – You Can Do It from 1984. “Looks like a proper disco, and he’s dressed for a proper disco (I’ve just found my new hairstyle for 2012′). Above all, the Marzio productions has been a great influence on me. Dark electronic slo-mo beats and ominous heavy, dusty basslines. Xenon ‘Adventure’ is my favourite but this live video is ace!”
