Nueva Ola Española Spotlight #1:Cinemaspop





Fans of music, awesomeness and cheese,consider this one of the best days of your life. My appreciation for the 80's grows greater all the time. For a blog all about appreciating horrible taste the 80's are a goldmine. Spain in the 80's = Synthpop electrodance FUEGO. There was hot synthpop electro stuff coming out everywhere in the 80's but most stuff I've heard coming out of Spain during this time has been consistently hottt cheesy and awesome. Like the gayest most retro futuristic delicious mindblowing nachos you could ever imagine. As a tribute to this glorious time in Spain's musical history that has been greatly enriching my life as of late, I will be periodically doing Nueva Ola Española spotlights. The further I delve into this the more oro I'm sure to find, so stay with me.

My favorite Spanish 80's synthpop/dance group of the moment is Cinemaspop.





While I love these songs, I like other songs on the albums much much more



Their first album consists of mostly synthpop covers of movie themes. Their version of the 007 and The Good the Bad and the Ugly themes are particularly incredible. I've been making notes to myself to find a way to mix the good the bad and the ugly theme into or out of 'Single Life' by Cameo and thanks to Cinemaspop I think that dream can finally be realized. And "We love you Marilyn(part 2)" might be in the all time favorite songs category for me

La Naranja Mecanica is my favorite Cinemaspop album. It has more actual songs and not just covers. Favorites include 'Lets go to the Movies', 'Following the Blonde', and 'Walking in Your Sleep'.
