~ Home of 80's Modern rock/New wave Music~

This page is dedicated to the obscure and harder to find 80's modern rock ~ new wave music as well as the more popular music of it's time. I have been on a quest for many months collecting music as well as converting my own, some of the music files are my own personal radio recordings from between 1980-1989(90). The radio recorded songs are being used until I can locate the correct artist/song title and or the album in general, in some cases this is proving a daunting task.

It was thru my searching and frustration that I decided to make this site and get these sometimes forgotten and some not heard music out there for all interested. There is some really really good music that perhaps deserves a second chance and a willing ear. Plus, if I have a song that someone has been searching for yet unable to locate and they end up finding it on my site then it was all worth it!

If those searching thru this page see misinformation or music missing that could benefit please contact me and let me know. Also, if anyone has the songs in my still searching for list or the radio recordings please let me know! Hopefully this can help ease the frustration of searching for the near impossible to find!

The first 80's music page is those songs I have been either unable to locate due to rarity or lack of correct artist/song title. Some of these songs I do have as radio recording from some 15 plus years ago. Some are of decent quality others not so good and therefore am still searching for the actual album recordings. (NOTE: I have found most of the songs only a few are still unknown or searched for!)

Page 2 consists of all the songs I currently have (whether made playable or not). The list is long and continually growing as I come into more music or convert that which I have to mp.3 format (we're talking boxes of tapes). Again, the list is to hopefully help those in search of music they are wanting and possibly couldn't find elsewhere.

Note: As to the unknown artist and songs, I am currently working with a 80's master DJ on finding the correct titles and artists, I just have to get the unknowns to disk or tape and get them in. I would like to thank Steve Masters for the help he has given so far =o) (also I would like to thank my friends and those I have met who have helped in searches or offering correct song information! Greg. J, David. B, M. Sutton, Gary, Matt, Kelly. A and anyone else I forgot=o) )

Due to pirating laws music may be able to be played (selected songs,  also songs may rotate or upon request be sent or made available) but not recorded.

Thank you for your support and patience,

Rayncatt the kitty with the mostest!
