Get outside your comfort zone, try some of the stuff other people post
Anyway I've just finished another Stanley / Wiggs Compilation. Early UK 80s synth groups _ The Tears of Technology. You'll have heard of some of these Rob. The Human League, China Crisis, The Pale Fountains, Soft Cell, OMD.... There's an awful lot of Merseyside stuff on here, which rather surprised me as it doesn't get the credit it deserves for being at the heart of the UK synth groups (and a Flock of Seabats aren't even on here)
