Watching Synth Britannia on BBC at the moment. Some real classics from that era. I really love them.. pure melody. And such great, raw, huge keyboard sounds. One of my songs has been described as fitting in with this genre. Check it out. It’s called “DOUBLE CLICK DELETE”. Let me know what you think. It’s certainly a step away from the ‘indie-rock’ mainstream.  Oh, and that 80s Ministry of Sound compilation was great!  I just take it all in, absorb it and spit it back out.  Helps to keep my music interesting.  Music should be from the heart.  And the heart is full of any music you ever loved.
