I still haven't heard Foxx's solo material, but you sparked my interest. I'll check it out for sure

I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.

They are single-handedly responsible for the advent of synth/pop, electronica and techno-dance-trance-house etc...They simply simplified the TDream/Schulze electronic prog , by adding more dance oriented beats and presto! A new genre and era were born. I am very partial to Belgian stalwarts Telex , who simlarly blew the lid off synthesized music and made it accessible and "fun" ! "Ralf & Florian" remains a masterpiece of progressive music, no question!

After Pink Floyd, I would say these 4 robots are my favorite band of all time. They were WAY ahead of their time, and their influence cannot be ignored. Heck, the music they wrote 30 years ago still sounds futuristic!
What do you all think of them?
