Wake Up!

Kontrapunkt: The Clocks - Wake Up

The Clocks - Wake Up came out in 1981, so this November the song is celebrating it's 29th birthday...which feels plain weird. Just listen.

I like EVERYTHING about this song, which sounds a bit like Telex minus a few drops of the sarcasm.

Phil Gozes, the producer, later worked for Vaya Con Dios. The only reason for me writing this is that although it's completely useless, I like this kind of info. But f**k, listen to the song!

Caravan


Caravan released this 12" in 1983. Caravan was a hugely popular Italian dance band, and covered a lot of songs from Giorgio Moroder, Bobby Orlando, Patrick Cowley, Sylvester and others. One of the band's members was Mauro Farina — even if you don't know his name, you've heard (and probably loved) a lot of his productions, including Ken Laszlo, Magika, Radiorama, Albert One. Just take a look, the list is almost endless.

This release has elements from all over, some boogie, some disco, and the chorus could only come from an European band and reminds me of stuff from Goombay Dance Band and Boney M. But the bass is my favorite, makes me think of Sex Band.
