A blog of songs that influenced me. From cool synth pop to italodisco or anger-driven EBM, it's all there to find the roots of today's electronic dance music. Be surprised!

The Twins - Ballet Dancer

Ronny Schreinzer & Sven Dohrow made their marks in the German Synthpop History. Their new romantic songs not only were hypercool, but commercial enough to get tons of airplay. They also had their not-to-confuse-it-with-anyone-else-type signature sound.
Besides singing, Ronny was a fully fledged drummer using both acoustic and
electronic drumkits on their albums. (whenever they used drum machines they were also programmed with a drummer's mind.)

This song was one of their biggest hits in Hungary (back in 1984-85), Twins was the first music I ever danced "seriously" with a girl to, and also the first concert act I went to see without my parents...
