"You could steal my records..." *picture of Radioactivity album by Kraftwerk!* <3

[JoyDivisionIsNotDead]

These guys are the absolute innovators of sampling, a technique widely used by so many of the so-called recording artists today. It is unfortunate that none of them ever give proper credit to I Start Counting for it.

I first heard I Start Counting on WRAS 88.5 in Atlanta back in 1985 or 86 on a show called Pure Mania. They played y Translucent Hand" all the tome!! And then I never heard them again until I picked up Mute Tonal Evidence! What a great track to listen to while driving through the streets at night!

[MIMNED]

I remember perfectly the first moment when I've listened to this synth-song. I've got the album "Fused" which includes this track....great!!! ^^

@industries249 called "Mute: Tonal Evidence" ?? That's how I first heard of them, too.

This record and John Came are utter classics.

You reminded me of a moving quote from Charles Dickens' novel A Tale of Two Cities: "A WONDERFUL FACT TO REFLECT UPON, that very human creature is constituted to be that profound secret and mystery to every other. A solemn consideration, when I enter a great city by night, that every one of those darkly clustered houses encloses its own secret; that every beating heart in the hundreds of thousands of breasts there, is, in some of its imaginings, a secret to the heart nearest it!"

Great production on the Synclavier with the choir sounds in the background. Wonder if that was the one that Daniel Miller owned.

Sad song, guy sounded lonely. Song is seems to be about just seeing someone and wondering what it would be like to have a family with that person..odd, how we are all connected in that way....and do strange things like that, secretly

Yeah, first found out about this band (thank you WFDU) with Lose Him, so

freakin' haunting yet catchy, kept playing

it while driving on dark roads out in the country (as country as NJ USA gets :). Thanks to komputermusik for posting.

(and I wont bother telling you all that I was younger then or how old I actually was LOL)

[Dreamland68]

I had a LP from them ...with a broken fuse at background? But I sold this LP:((((( Sorry for my bad English
