Music & Politics. Episode #7: IN THE 80s PART I
This is the music I was born and raised with, the music I feel more close to happiness.
In this episode of Music & Politics we walk through a very interesting territory made of excess and access, the fall of the Berlin Wall and the Chernobyl disaster, the explosion of Italo Disco movement and the Computer Rock. This decade will remain in our heritage forever and has already influenced decades of new music production. Some people would say this is the worst non sense era ever. Well, not to me.
