Dolce Vita - Dolce Vita (1984) [Full Album] New Wave

[@DavidQuinnIN]

Thank you. Just came to my attention (thanks to Marcus in Brazil!) that we have been "found." We have a Bandcamp page with the downloads if anyone needs to have their own, but the vinyl is hard to find. A word from our producer, Chris Spedding: ""I haven't seen that many new bands in the last few years that really knocked me out... The Pretenders, The Police when they first played CBGB's, a few others... I thought Dolce Vita's music was really great, and they really had what it takes live for being as young as they are." NYC, 1984

[@Fariz08G]

hi david! i really love dolce vita's music, glad that it's been found! just a small question: do you have the lyrics to 'Break Down Those Walls'? thanks!

[@obscurealternatives1]

Hello David! Thank you for making such great music! It’s always so cool to hear from the artists. 🎹❤️

[@DavidQuinnIN]

@@obscurealternatives1 the pleasure is mine!

[@TopatTom]

Im glad you guys were “found” I almost cant imagine my future days without your music haha.

[@sheepishtick35]

hi david! thanks for making this album, i've really enjoyed listening to it over the past few days. are there any plans to upload the music to streaming services such as spotify or apple music? thanks again for the great music!

[@Jorick_73]

Amazing album! Never heard before! Absolute gem! Thank you!! my fav here "Never Let Go Now"

Bro didnt know

[@Anon3527bober]

[@nikkaboek4510]

I actually happen to have this album on vinyl. I bought it from a since closed record store for about $5 back in 2017. Considering I was about 16 I did not take very good care of it and in turn it does not play like it used to but to think I was sitting on lost media! I’ve always loved this album and wondered about its origins. Glad to know it’s finally being enjoyed by everyone!

[@MMitochondria]

Love this album so much!

[@GeoToday_]

To the owner of this channel, If you're confused as to why there are so many new comments appearing now, especially ones commenting "I WAS HERE," a community of people were trying to find the identity of this 30 second clip of an unidentified song taped from the radio back in the 1980s. Well, the track was found in full today, and it just so happened to be track three of this album (Break Down Those Walls). Why "I WAS HERE"? There is this one Discord server that had an entire channel dedicated to the clip, and many happened to see the moment this track was found, hence their comments.

[@obscurealternatives1]

The reason as to why I started this channel was to upload and archive forgotten/lost music from the alternative 80's scene. It is unbelievable that the album that started my channel is the one that was found and I am glad that I somewhat contributed to the Reddit/Discord community by uploading this bands album back in 2022. I had absolutely no idea that this search was going on! Please enjoy the album!

[@lostwaved]

@@obscurealternatives1 Do you know any other forgotten/lost music from the 1980s like Stranger In The Corner, Waiting For The Countdown, Im Only Dreamin', Somewhere in the night, etc? You can search them up on KZbin and I feel like you may know them too!

[@kyramahlervolleyball]

KZbin really needs a shazam like program. Due to how many freaking lostwave songs are just chilling on here.

[@kaka_445]

Fr! I can't remember any song that was found here other than Uptown People and Waste My Time but istg this app is like a gold mine

[@GD-Yurawalu4951]

Back To Bed aswell

[@kyramahlervolleyball]

@@kaka_445 Uptown People, Stop making me cry (I believe, I could be wrong), Back to Bed, and Waste My Time were found on here. I also think EKT was but I can't remember. But I do think a lot of lostwave songs are just hiding on social media sites, I mean LCDA was on the band's facebook and Zoltan was on Vimeo.

[@AFellowCyberman]

Most lost songs are likely on the internet somewhere. This is why we should seek out and review any channels that post obscure music.

[@iamepic1245]

@@kyramahlervolleyball i dont think smmc or ekt were here

[@alexthehidingninja]

I think we need a huge thank you and respect towards Obscure Alternatives. They are not only making obscure songs listenable on youtube and helping people discover bands, but they are also archiving music, and in this case, archived a wanted piece of inaccessible music. To the owner of this channel, thank you.

[@corpsewithnoname1373]

Атмосферный заводной музон, вроде ничего выдающегося, без музыкальных инноваций, но это точно не тот случай, когда альбом "на один раз послушать". Это, на самом деле, шедевральный альбом, в нём есть нечто большее, чем просто хороший вокал и инструментал. Слушаешь и отчетливо понимаешь, что сюда "вложена душа". У группы могло быть большое будущее в своё время, жаль, что проект скорее всего окончил своё существование как типичный проходняк тех лет, без должного промоутинга. "Break Down Those Walls" - вообще звучит как неплохой саундтрек для теле/кино-продукции середины восьмидесятых.

[@fulgensy]

I am so happy to hear "Uptown People" in its entirety, this was one of my top 5 lostwaves without a doubt, maybe even top 2. "I'd Rather be a Rockstar", "Forgive and Forget", "Damenwahl", "Fixation", and "CIA" here we come.

[@1sharkville]

damenwaaaaaaahl

[@thisisnotyourhandle.]

necropost but what are damenwahl and fixation

[@fulgensy]

@@thisisnotyourhandle. Damenwahl is a 1980s German-language punk (leaning hardcore punk, not pop) song. Fixation is a late 90s/early 00s British alt-rock song. Damenwahl is sung by a man, and Fixation by a woman. Just search the titles with "unknown song" and you should find both easily.
