A little nostalgia...
This 34 year old music video featuring Moog bass and a Devo-like arrangement came out 2 years before MTV even existed.

Re: A little nostalgia...
Here's the stereo version...
I had bought the 45 rpm vinyl of this. I wore it out on my old BSR turn table, with the full volume of my 15 watts (total) sound system back then ! I was 14 then...

And then there's this, done a couple of years later:

I knew Ivan, the singer of Men Without Hats, because we had rented a practice space for our band next to his, in an old reconverted warehouse in Montreal. He had recorded this song using a Polymoog Synthesizer, if I remember right.

Thanks. The one you posted is better in both audio and video fidelity.

Ehhh I'm torn on Pop Muzik. It may had been heavy in synths but it is a d-d-disco song.

Meh, I don't know about that. It's a little too slow for dancing. It's not disco, it's Pop Muzik !MC wrote:Ehhh I'm torn on Pop Muzik. It may had been heavy in synths but it is a d-d-disco song.

Re: A little nostalgia...
Those chopped-up Minis must have been heavy as hell ! Almost as heavy as a double neck guitar (remember those?) ! No wonder the singer is sweating so much...
Not only that, but those mod wheels must have been a real pain to control in this position...

Re: A little nostalgia...
Hahaha. Very "cheesy" video effects. And to say nothing of those Minis, played with both hands when it's a monophonic synth. And the drummer who doesn't play (synthesized drums, sequenced sound track)...
And, like MC would say, this is clearly a d-d-disco song...
P.S. But I still like it, nonetheless. I've got nothing against synthesizers disco.

Space is awesome. The Robot Rock vid always reminds of of that vid. Gotta love those Atari Video Music's on the TV's.

A couple years later Robin Scott (M) and Ryuichi Sakamoto (1/3rd of YMO) did a 5 or so tracks

YMO (dating back to 1978) had quite a Moog presence even on tour in Los Angeles, 1979
