YMO

"Technopolis"
"Solid State Survivor" was the second album by Japanese electronic music band Yellow Magic Orchestra, released in 1979. Solid State Survivor was never released in the United States, but many of the songs from this album were compiled for release in the States as the US pressing of ×∞Multiplies (1980), including the tracks "Behind the Mask", "Rydeen", "Day Tripper", and "Technopolis".^[1] Solid State Survivor is only one of a handful of YMO albums in which the track titles do not have a Japanese equivalent.
The album was an early example of synthpop, a genre that the band helped pioneer,^[2] alongside their earlier album Yellow Magic Orchestra (1978),^[3] and it also contributed to the development of techno.^[4] Solid State Survivor won the Best Album Award at the 22nd Japan Record Awards,^[5] and it sold two million records.^[6] Several songs from the album have continued to be widely covered and sampled.^[7][8]

Pink Floyd

"The Narrow Way"
...is a section on the studio half of Pink Floyd's fourth album Ummagumma.^[1] It was written and performed by David Gilmour and is divided into three parts. The only musician to feature is the composer (in this case, Gilmour), who recorded the song using multiple overdubs to play all the instruments himself.
Part one of the song was called "Baby Blue Shuffle in D minor" when played by the band in a BBC broadcast on 2 December 1968;^[2] it also strongly resembles the tracks "Rain in the Country (take 1)" and "Unknown Song" recorded (but eventually not used) for the soundtrack of Michelangelo Antonioni's film Zabriskie Point in November/December 1969. This portion features layered acoustic guitar with some spacey effects overtop.
Part two features an electric guitar and percussion which modulate heavily at the end, forming a drone that leads into part three.
Part three of the song features Gilmour's only vocal contribution to the studio part of the album. This final part was incorporated into The Man and the Journey by the full band on their 1969 tour.

The Art of Noise

"Moments in love"

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Art of Noise (also The Art of Noise) were an avant-garde synthpop group formed in 1983 by engineer/producer Gary Langan, programmer J. J. Jeczalik, along with arranger Anne Dudley, producer Trevor Horn and music journalist Paul Morley.^[1] The group's mostly instrumental compositions were novel melodic sound collages based on digital sampler technology, which was new at the time. Inspired by turn-of-the-20th-century revolutions in music, the Art of Noise were initially packaged as a faceless anti- or non-group, blurring the distinction between the art and its creators. The band is noted for innovative use of electronics and computers in pop music and particularly for innovative use of sampling.

The name of the group alludes to the essay "The Art of Noises" by noted futurist Luigi Russolo. From the earliest releases on ZTT, the band referred to itself as both Art of Noise and The Art of Noise. Official and unofficial releases and press material use both versions.
