MNQ 005 VA / Danza Meccanica Italian Synth Wave 1982-1987

by Mannequin Records

supported by

Robert Lane Excellently curated compilation of the 80s Italian synthetic underground. Dusty drum machines, undeniable grooves, oppressed by the machine, for the machine. Thank you Mannequin.

Charlie Great compilation of pretty obscure synth music from 1980's Italy. Amazing stuff that introduced me to some stellar artists. Mannequin unearthed some gems. Favorite track: 06 - Janitor Of Lunacy - On The Dancefloor.

Andy Fitzgerald I feel like if presented properly this album could help a lot of people. Favorite track: 02 - Vena - A Mortal Song In A Beautiful Sunday.
