Great choice! Artifakts is superb minimal techno. There is also a track on Artifakts called Are Friends Electrick?

Great, great live album. Music with passion. That opening medley of Bring on the Night/When the world is Running Down, is simply fantastic...

Shock were a dance & mime act under the guidance of Rusty Egan & Richard Burgess (Landscape). They only released 2 singles to my knowledge. Angel Face b/w R.E.R.B & Dynamo Beat b/w Dream Games.

Their major claim to fame was performing with Gary Numan on the 3 Wembley Arena concerts in 1981 (I was at the final show).

Tik & Tok were in Shock & when Shock split they released a few singles with minor success.

Summer In The City
Cool Running
Screen Me I'm Yours
Everything Will Change

They released an album called Intolerance which was very dissapointing. Tik & Tok also supported Gary Numan on his Warriors tour.

That's all I remember about them. Please fill in the gaps that i've left out.

Cool Running was the best single, backed with possibly the best electronic instrumental ever, entitled Synthetic Heartsteps Of Unconcerned Androids.

go to You Tube & type in Shock Angel Face & after you've watched that vid, type in Shock Dynamo Beat. I'd post the links but I haven't got the hang of doing that on this site. I'm a bit of a luddite when it comes to technology.

Here you go Mark, it's dead simple.
Just copy the URL from your address bar and paste into the text body of your post here.

As long as it starts with 'http' I think the technology does itself!

Hope this helps
