So apparently Jon Saxe, the man, packed a bunch of synths into his backpack, sporting a lumberjack shirt and kaki shorts - and was seen walking on water later that afternoon. Check out "Golden Man" from his(very) endangered private album. This didn't show up in years until recently, when some freaky explorers were finally able to secure another specimen.

"Golden Man" by  Jon Saxe on RPS Recording USA, 1986 (VG+/VG) - Offer

"Night Owl" 7” Creepy Exotica by Boppy on MZA USA, 1970s probably

I will say smooth, I will say jazzy, hmmm what else comes to mind? Crisp and tropical... those kind of things.

Also really dig the electronic percussions and the phased scat vocals. Ah, there is furthermore some kind of italo-ish banger hiding here. Obviously I have replaced the cover to avoid too much hi-jacking - but what if I told you the actual sleeve artwork was even tastier?

Shhh "Soft Touch" LP - Sade Styled Tropical Instru - Small German Label 1985 - EX/VG+ SOLD

"Radio Cosmo" 7" by The One "O" One's - Phantom Records, Italy

“Chocolate Candy” 12" by Terry Crawford on RCA Canada, 1982

After Sunrise By Gene Lawrence - Semp Productions - Trinidad, 1977

Superbe Chinese spaghetti martial western soundtrack with brilliant instrumental and vocal versions of the track you hear. Also silly and weird disco track to be found. Cool sleeve with angry warrior face, but we replaced it to keep it under our wing for a little longer. Rare and expensive when found at all. VG+

Masked Cowboys From The Valley Of The Red Moon LP - China 1980s

Week-End Loving LP by  Jennifer Lara ‎– Black Solidarity Jamaica, 1985

Babelonia & Cicogna 7" by Tonica & Dominante - Dominante - Italy 197x - SOLD

Vision De La Nuit 7" but Emessa - Trema, France 1986

Hush Hush "You Always Hurt" - Cute Keyboard Soul - USA 1980s   👋

Comes with the BLUE Caravanning Music sleeve. VG++ conditioned with a few light marks, but playing very nicely! A-side has a more energetic boogie/disco version of this. Both tunes really so, so good and this is as good as a one-of as it really never comes up. This is the copy from when I found this the first time.

"Whatever You Do" 12" By The C.V.Q. Band On Caravanning Music, Italy 1983 - 275€

Hard to believe this was recorded thirty years ago! Perfect club tune and possibly the best new-beat record out there? No idea how they came up with the title. This one delivers on all channels. Wicked, wobbling bass-lines, tribal chants, sick samples and a production as slick as YELLO! Careful some weird Hitler samples used on the flip if you're offended easily. One copy left (VG++!), no sleeve.

"My Brother Death" 12" by Big Bong On Dum Dum Austria, 1989 👋 SOLD

Stunning track that runs a solid 6 minutes in all glory. EX playback

"Camin D'América" LP by Grupo Serenata ‎on private label Cape Verde, 1987 👋 SOLD

"Ice Cold Calculation" LP By Bill Hurst On Cain Germany, 1982 - 👋

Addictive Hiro Ito rarity with Make My Day Today in both instru and vocal versions.

"ECHO ROMEO" 12" "Dreams" - Killer Hypno Art Synthpop on Das Büro Germany, 1985 - 75€

My god! So, so good this one!!! So catchy. Don't wait too long as this opportunity is the once in a decade wave u wanna ride, Johnny Utah.

"Surfin' Reggae" 7" by SHARK on Gemstar Australie, 1982 - VG+/VG 150€

Stars Lovely Stars” 7” by Danièle Varsene on French Private Label, 1980s - SOLD

Mystery 7" just fished out of the blue grotto. Stats: One copy ever sold on discogs, 4 wants... File under: freshest sushi in town. Ocean FX added to shake off audio-hi-jackers.

"Ile" 7" - Balearic Bliss - Not On Label, 1980s - 👋 SOLD

This just stranded from nowhere. Sweet as honey, twisted as a seashell - another haunting revelation from the French colonies. The hawaiian tinged answer to Tonica & Dominante? Maybe. Sleeve (photo) has been a bit too long on the boat and in the sun, but still teasing with those 2 cuties sitting on the rocks. Record has a few marks, bit noisy  - but plays almost VG+ (sample).

"Bon Peu Nana" 7" By Punch Des Îles On Cabana Reunion 1986 - 👋 SOLD

Music speaks louder than words. One of my most beloved 7inch finds from a few years ago. Found an extra spare with written dedication.

Shh “Mamandu” 7" - Mysterious Island Folk on private label Indies, 1983 - VG+/signed cover - 275€

Shhh “Sirene Coast House” 12" Micro-pressed in Brazil, 1990 👋 SOLD

Le Parfum Des Îles sticks out of an ocean of records from that time, with something that is so particularly sleazy, catchy and brilliantly assembled from her particular voice, tight drums to the wicked synths - this is the scent you've been waiting for.

"Le Parfum Des Îles" 7" By Marie Leonore On Challenge France, 1978 - 👋

The evening entertainment is about to start with what sounds like the Camping '82 Talent Show. What a lovely and snappy AOR vibe and this self-printed sleeve with a nice hand drawing crafted by one of the band member's girlfriends.

"In Another Time" Clip 7" By Free Feeling Band - Priv Finland, 1982 - 👋 SOLD

Record is VG, quite noisy (listen to the clip) and without sleeve, but damn this is hell of a build up and a killer vibe that comfortably juggles AOR, Indie Rock, Fleetwood and Disco Funk over a stretch of just about nearly 4 minutes. It wouldn't be here if you were likely to find this elsewhere.

"Thin Air" 7" Clip By Tessa Stivar - Fleetwood AOR Disco Rock UK, 1983 - VG 👋 SOLD

fantastic weirdo that juggles new wave vibes and reggae. Label is unknown with not even a handful of releases and most items with 0 owners - so you're sure to take your chakra to where nobody has landed before you.

Shhh “Disco Yo-ga" 7" Killer Fake Reggae on Private Label Italy, 197X 👋🏽 SOLD

You wish the mighty oracle could whisper the ID of this one into you ear, but they have surrendered to the purple fog of doom here. Oh well, been looking for a spare for years now, here it finally is. Less than 10 people on discogs claim ownership and let me tell you: Original sleeve artwork is a little marvel as well - think of some kind of hand drawn space ship leaving an island. Bit of noise in the quiet zones and some wear to the sleeve, but what choice do we have? Exactly.

The flipside ain't bad, for the new wave heads among you, leaning a little bit into Talking Head's material.

Shhh "Return To Milos" 7" Microlabel From New Jersey USA, ca 1984 VG(+) - 180€
