Every so often musicians come along and change the direction & face of music. Not driven by the fame & fortune but the desire to offer something different & unique to the world of music. They're called Gamechangers.
Myself & my brother have decided to start a brand new mix series, each time selecting a different genre of music & with each volume, featuring some of our favourite & most influential artists of that genre. Remembering the legends that pushed the musical boundaries & formed the sound.
Vol 1 covers some of the creators of Electronic Music. A type of music that has gone on to influence many, many genres, most notably the powerhouse genre that is EDM. We hope you enjoy the series & please take time to research & support these game changing artists.

I defintly know of JMJ and Kraftwerk. I might have no albums by KW but I do have most of JMJ's Studio albums, including the Essentials, which has his, until that point, unreleased material from before Oxygene (1-6) |

Excellent album that :)
I think you'll like the YMO tracks my friend. They played a big part in forming the J Pop sound. |

That really means a lot. We've mostly started this for our own enjoyment but its great to see people appreciating & enjoying the music as much as we do :) hopefully people will check it out & learn a little something from each edition.
I did play it a little safe with the tracklist on this one but next time round I'll venture into more experimental stuff. My brothers mix is coming soon though :) |

I knew it was 70s but I must admit I was shocked when I realised it was as far back as '76, especially when you consider how long it would've taken to get it to release stage. Your looking more like 74/75 production. |
