This is a final installment of the series. A darker version of the others this mix is more of an evolution of the music I was listening to in the 80's. This was around the time when I had really discovered industrial, which to me was an evolution of the synth-pop stuff I was into. The mood on this mix never really takes us to the serious hardcore industrial music of the era but a middle ground where the evolution of techno was about to begin.

I can't comment enough on the obvious influence that this music had on contemporary electronic music. All of the elements that I love in the kind of techno that I play are represented here and in many cases almost a decade before it was created. For me all this was a natural progression into industrial and then into techno and all it's relatives.

All the records came from original LPs & 12"s from the 80's.
