Product Description

NOW Music proudly presents the next electrifying chapter in the NOW 12” 80s series – NOW 12” 80s: 1983 – Part 1, out 19th July 2024.

With 46 extended, full-length, or remixed versions, this collection captures the vibrant spirit and sonic innovation of 1983. From synth-pop anthems and New Wave experiments to irresistible Pop-Dance grooves and disco delights, this four-disc set is a time capsule for collectors and dancefloor devotees alike.

CD1 kicks off with Wham!’s youthful Bad Boys, and Eurythmics’ ultra-rare 12-minute remix of Right By Your Side. It moves through hits by Duran Duran, Spandau Ballet, The Human League, and Howard Jones – a must-have for synth lovers.

CD2 dives into glittering pop gold – Adam Ant, Bananarama, Belle Stars, and Bucks Fizz deliver club-ready classics, while Soft Cell and Heaven 17 bring the electronic bite. Taco wraps it up with a theatrical twist on Puttin’ On The Ritz.

CD3 shifts into high gear – dancefloor fire with Flashdance…What A Feeling, Freeez’s electro-funk megamix, and Arthur Baker’s heavyweight productions for New Order and Rockers Revenge. There’s crossover funk from Level 42 and party-starting brilliance from Madness and The Style Council.

CD4 brings the star power – Paul McCartney & Michael Jackson, Billy Joel, Laura Branigan, and Debbie Harry lead the charge. Then it's pure Hi-Energy bliss from Miquel Brown and Divine, with Ryan Paris’ Dolce Vita and Donna Summer’s team-up with Musical Youth offering an exuberant close.

NOW 12” 80s: 1983 – Part 1 is an unmissable deep-dive into one of pop music’s most exciting years.

Stay tuned – Part 2 is on the way!
