I waited a long, long time before I touched New Order's exit of the 80's. The band that ruled the decade and revolutionized Synth Pop/New Wave for the future of what we call House and Techno music today. Look no further than Technique. Everything that came before, had built up to this one album. This is the pinnacle climax of New Order as we thought they hit their gold with Low Life and Power, Cor... read more

Description: Technique is New Order's most fully realised dance album. Although other New Order albums have been mighty danceable, this recording contains a masterful use of the acid-house trends storming the club scene in 1989, when this album was released. New Order embraced the technology that was available at the time but never substituted bri ... (more)

Oddities In Music - The Good And The Bad (18 music items)

"By 1989, New Order was ready to close the door on everything in their past, including their Joy Division history. When you look back at everything this band made, every single album was just a stepping stone to Technique. It's not a shock that many claim this is their greatest album and accomplishment. New Order ultimately ran the table in the 80's with dance music. Some regard them as the greatest "Dance/Rock" band ever created. Everything, including their Joy Division history led up to this p"

“I waited a long, long time before I touched New Order's exit of the 80's.

Everything that came before, had built up to this one album. This is the pinnacle climax of New Order as we thought they hit their gold with Low Life and Power, Corruption & Lies, but little did we know those were just stepping stones. Without this album you wouldn't have over half of that super Techno bullshit you hear today in the clubs. This is a club album, this is what should be played in the clubs today.

The album opens up with a strong disco tune; Fine Time. This is how you open an album, with straight up memories of those break drums from” read more

Frank Listens to the 80's - The Best of the 80's (96 music items)

""The picture you see is no portrait of me It's too real to be shown to someone I don't know And it's driving me wild It makes me act like a child" In 1989 New Order said farewell to the decade that they helped change with their ground breaking music, and in the process they did it with what is now arguably their best album. Technique is what every New Order album built up to. This hard hitting synth/disco wave of music behind the genius of Peter Hook and his virtuoso bass playing. It has the h"

Albums I got for Christmas 2012 (16 music items)

"GOLD. Curse me music gods for never listening to Technique! This is perhaps New Order's finest work. This is pure disco. This is a club album. I had heard Fine Time before, but never the rest of this album. It starts out strong and ends well. I love the album, you can just imagine tripping on some LSD or acid listening to this record and the statue changing colors. Vanishing Point is probably the most underrated New Order song of all time. Highlights would include Run (Fuck John Denver, it don"
