NOW Music are excited to present the next instalment of the NOW 12" 80s series - NOW 12" 80s: 1982 - Part One - Out January 19th!Across 4 CDs, extended, full-length or remixed versions reflecting the shift from Disco being the dominant genre in the Chart, to it being enriched with the developing Synth-Pop and New-Wave sounds of the New Romantics. Despite this sonic shift, the 12" single played an even more vital role than it had done with Funk and Disco, providing fans with more time on club dancefloors and more room for artist and producer experimentation. This edition of 12" 80s presents part one of 1982 - such massive year for Pop that we had to split this year into two parts to present all of the essential tracks.
