My formative years were spent in the 80's with foundational bands like New Order, Depeche Mode, Echo & the Bunnymen, The Cure, and Jane's Addiction. Even though the 80's was the pioneer decade for the alternative genre, this music transcended into the 90's and to some cool tunes today which could be classified as alternative. Hopefully, this site will bring back some good memories and introduce some things you haven't heard before.

Feedback and suggestions are welcome.

Enjoy.

'Vanishing Point' by New Order

Album: Technique
Released: 1989
Theme: magical 80's

It's about time for some New Order on SoDA . . . Interestingly enough, the album was partly recorded in Ibiza, Spain - a hedonistic, club oriented island off the coast of Spain. This is fitting since I like so many of the tracks on it.

This is a classy, great song and is dedicated to James.
