Uneven Paths: Deviant Pop From Europe 1980-1991

by Various Artists

supported by

inanis Another tight butthole from MFM. Favorite track: Cada Día.

Michael Feihstel Another treasure chest of gems unearthed by Music From Memory - while focusing on a different theme it fits in seamlessly with last year's standout compilation "Outro Tempo".

Next please: 1980s Japan. Favorite track: No Lie.

Camryn Marquez I’m pretty blown away by this compilation. There are some serious bangers on here. The quality of the track list, the beauty of the album cover: it all speaks to an ephemera with enough gusto to attempt to escape time and exist in eternal and sidereal beauty. Favorite track: Tambo Machay.

about

Uneven Paths: Deviant Pop From Europe, 1980-1991 is the second multiple artist compilation on Music From Memory and is compiled by record connoisseur Raphael Top-Secret and label man Jamie Tiller. The compilation brings together twenty one tracks from across the continent; exploring the more unusual and unexpected sides of Pop music produced during that period.

Drawing material from cult experimental artists such as Steve Beresford, Brenda Ray and Bill Nelson alongside one-off independent musical projects rescued from the fringes, ’Uneven Paths’ focuses on a selection of tracks that go beyond the confines of mainstream pop music but which also transcend expectations of much of the ’experimental’ music of the time. This is music with one foot in the avant-garde and another foot firmly rooted within the sensibilities of Pop; where Jazz musicians detour into Synth-Pop, Punk bands break into Boogie jams, and student doctors jam out on odd melodies with synthesizers and drum machines during their night shifts.
