Daily Disco

Before Underdog Records in Laguna Beach closed down right before Halloween '06 I managed to score a few sick vinyl gems. Some punk, some surf, some electro, and even some hip hop. I even grabbed the Misfits- She/ Cool Cough 7" just because those are like the only 2 tracks by them that have keys/organs.
I always had heard Yello was a sick 80s electro group and they do the Oh Yeah song that was on the Twix commercial back in the day and was part of the Feris Bueller's Day Off Soundtrack.
Claro Que Si

The record cover coincidentally is in a book I bought a while back called "This Ain't No Disco" which showcases New Wave album covers.

I was able to listen to it before I bought it (Underdog and Mike were dope like that) and didn't even have to listen to 30 seconds of the track before I knew it was a keeper.
Daily Disco epitomizes everything I want to hear in an electornic 80s dance song;
A good 4/4 house beat, kinda spooky vocals and a nice breakdown to mix into.
Yello-Daily Disco

This track is a bit more of a rockabilly/punk type uptempo track with a trippy ambient ending:
Yello-The Evening's Young

Enjoy!
