[Gabzi Nemo]

Liquid Liquid - Optimo (You gotta love no wave)

Donovan - Sunshine Superman (Just heard it on the radio while driving and loved it; nice and psychedelic)

Cities in Dust Eruption Mix - Siouxsie and the Banshees (Best version of the song IMO. Post-punk)

Hyperactive! - Thomas Dolby ('cause you know, I'm too cool to listen to "She Blinded Me With Science" . New Wave as always)

Boss: Solaris Phase 2 - SEGA / Tomoya Ohtani (Not cool enough to not listen to video game music apparently . I like the strings.)

Insanely Jealous of You - The Soft Boys (Great beat, stand out lyrics. I've heard it counts as psychedelic rock)

Before the Bullfight - David Sylvian (klassic track. Obvious I know but I'm in the GTE rut...what genre does Sylvian count as anyway? I just realized I have no idea. Japan you can cram in the new wave box but I have no idea about Sylvian, GTE in particular.)
