Re: the first post, I spoke to Light OF The World about it ages ago, they said theirs was first and Yasuko Agawa was a bit of a "tribute".

YMO - Technopolis (tokyo)

Minako Yoshida - Town (dunno what town she's singing about, think it's NYC... but very evocative)

Mr Lee - Acid Pump Up London

Egyptian Lover - Egypt Egypt

Londoners don't know how lucky you have tbh, all your streets and neighbourhoods and urban psychogeography get namechecked in much cooler things than ours in Dublin ever get... It's taken a recent influx of Nigerian immigrants to at least make an effort to sound like they actually like the place...

Raglan road, pretty nondescript little thoroughfare it has to be said...

The fields of Athenry recast as a pounding peak-time trance anthem, less said about that the better tbh.

Irish folk-metal is always knocking out versions of old trad songs, with added distortion / nationalism / even dodgier politics... "Spansill Hill" is as much about Spansill Hill as it is about California of course...

Orbital's "Belfast", still not sure whether or not the Boney M tune earlier on the thread was a more or less accurate musical reflection of the place though...

Minako Yoshida - Town (dunno what town she's singing about, think it's NYC... but very evocative)

wow edward, nice find! this is perfect for the nippon disco thread as well. this is what i like about the language barrier, actually, not knowing what it's all about, it's both familiar and foreign at the same time and i find that thrilling.

on the other hand it's that much more difficult to find your way around, delayed reward i guess.
