Next up, we have the second End of Data LP, finally rescued from poorly-ripped hell. The only copy most folks have of this record in digital format are ripped at a low bitrate from a less than stellar LP copy, so here's a more crisp, solid copy. This second record is slightly more poppy and new wave-esque than their more abrasive and strange debut, available here, so feel free to compare and contrast, and read up on the band while you're at it. Otherwise, here's a more solid and consistent rip of this 1985 classic!
End of Data- Dans Votre Monde LP 1. Dans Votre Monde 2. Movie Drama 3. Quetzalcoatl 4. Symphonie 5. La Rive Asiatique 6. Atttrra (Vers Le Miroir) 7. Venice 8. D.M.C.
I promise this isn't intentional anymore, folks, but today's band also happens to hail from France. It's a request of sorts from a new reader, and the band is End of Data, a four piece minimal wave/art-rock outfit who formed in 1983 and split just a few years later. Live setups for the band included ex-members of Tanit and Orchestre Rouge.
The band's discography consists of two solid records, 1984's Sahrah and 1985's Dans Votre Monde. As I'm unable to scour up a copy of the latter in an "acceptable" bitrate (if anyone wants a 128kps rip of the record, holler and I'll post it), I've only uploaded their influential debut. Alternately, if anyone has a more sufficient copy of said record, feel free to send it my way.
Details:
End of Data- Sahrah LP (1984) 1. End Of Data I & II 2. If I'm Not A Killer 3. Follow Me And So 4. Like A Succession I & II 5. Trottodaf 6. Sahrah / Symphonie Inachevée
note: though these tracks are usually split up on the original release, the version I've uploaded combines these intros, outros, and sequel tracks into one, hence the slightly truncated tracklisting.
During their tenure, the title track 'Sahrah' became a slightly prominent club hit, and has since been featured on several coldwave/French wave compilations. They made a video, to boot, and here it is:
