Jul 21, 2023 · “Supercut” by itself is one of the best synth-pop songs ever. “Green Light,” “Perfect Places” and “Homemade Dynamite” are also pretty damn great.
- Blondie – Heart Of Glass (1978) Debbie Harry and Chris Stein wrote the song 'Heart Of Glass' already in 1974–1975. However, the song only became a Synth Pop Disco pearl with the help of producer Mike Chapman in 1978.
- Kraftwerk – The Model (1978) 'Das Model' by Kraftwerk is probably the best-known and commercially most successful song by the German band from Düsseldorf.
- Gary Numan – Cars (1979) 'Cars' is the lead Single from Gary Numan's album 'The Pleasure Principle' from 1979. After the rebranding of 'Tubeway Army', this was the first release as 'Gary Numan'.
- OMD – Electricity (1979) Shortly before the beginning of the new decade, the debut single 'Electricity' by 'OMD (Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark)' is released.
- Jean-Michel Jarre – “Oxygene Part 4” This French musician’s career intersects disco, new age, and event/installation soundtracks, which doesn’t sound like a formula for either mass appeal or critical acclaim.
- Suicide – “Cheree” More punk than pop, more organ drone than punk, Suicide laid the groundwork for the producer-with-charismatic-vocalist archetype by presenting it at its most stripped down and primitive.
- Donna Summer – “I Feel Love” This song wasn’t merely the future of disco, positioned as it was at the end of Summer’s Giorgio Moroder-produced time-hopping concept album I Remember Yesterday.
- Kraftwerk – “The Model” The Dusseldorf electronic pioneers’ slot in this timeline could easily be occupied by “Trans-Europe Express,” but that motorik groove and its neighbors on the album of the same name were better and more importantly used as sample sources informing hip-hop from the old school.
- New Order – Blue Monday.
- Depeche Mode – Just Can’t Get Enough.
- Visage – Fade to grey.
- Yazoo – Don’t Go.
