Pseudo Echo - A Beat For You

[@JarnBjorn72]

For folks like me that were fortunate enough to live their teens during the 80s, Pseudo Echo wrote the soundtrack to our lives! Great band!

[@EricaFlipped]

JarnBjorn72 I wish I got to experience that... at least there's the internet to listen to great 80s music! It keeps their memories alive!

[@JarnBjorn72]

EricaFlipped Amen, Erica! It's great that the youngsters of today can experience great classic music like this on the internet! ;-D

[@piewpiew9537]

JarnBjorn72 wish I got to experience it. I'm a teen of today but at least I still grew up as a little kid with this stuff, this is so nostalgic for me

[@kylie-fayer6791]

true!

[@bschuler6216]

No, SWANS were the soundtrack to our teen lives in the 80's.

[@andrewstinson3284]

I became a flight attendant in 1982 at the age of 23. Based in Dallas, I would hit up all of the underground record shops on my layovers in cities like Los Angeles and San Francisco searching the import sections for bands that were not yet released in the USA. I had record albums of bands like Pseudo Echo, The Cure, and Pet Shop Boys well before those songs were released in America and would take those albums with me to Club Anaconda, my favorite underground night club in Dallas, where the DJ would play them. The 80's were such an incredible time to be young and free!

[@lukei6255]

USA is a funny country. Pseudo Echo and underground??? 😂

[@liviasalgado]

That is awesome, in Mexico City wheee I’m from it was literally impossible to get that type of music, we have to bring music from USA or Europe and share it, there were a couple of underground places, it was such a great time to be young, I would not change it for anything

[@antonioguamil3275]

Yeah I was in HS during those days, I went to their concert in Sydney when we were visiting my cousins.

I so vividly recall the power of my emotions, when I put on this newly purchased record, turned of my bedroom light, and blasted this song at full volume! It was sheer and utter ecstasy, ..pure Joy! My love affair with music has continued ; only the music has changed. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Brilliant New Wave Song from one of my favourite Australian bands. Go Echo!

[@traceycompt6108]

I remember the first time Pseudo Echo played on Countdown, first pub band Molly had appear on the show that weren't signed up with anýone, & l was instantly hooked on their music & Brian Canham's voice (loved their song Listening) & l was an instant fan, l collected everything Pseudp Echo l could lay my hands on & played tbeir cassettes til l knew every single word in all of their songs, & still do today, first cassette l ever owned was Autumnal Park & though l played it til it no longer worked, l still own it & all the otber cassettes (some of which l own multiple copies of), have been to just about everyone of tbis bands concerts in both N.S.W's & QLD since l was 16 & l'm now 49 & Brian Canham still sounds amazing, just live the deep resonance his voice has & l still think he's easy on tbe eyes as well. I am a diehard Pseudo Echo fan & felt this band never truly received the recognition from the music industry that they deserved.

[@twocentsopinion]

One of the best songs of the 80's imho

[@chrismcdonough5877]

I miss hanging out in the video game arcades and listening to this song, sound of video games, quarters on the top of the machines for spots in line and the smell of stale popcorn drifting in the air. I still remember the sound of Tempest, Galaxian, Joust and Missile Command...

[@angeleyesxxxooo]

These were my boys for a while when i was 15. Now 25 years on, and still brings me back fond memories. I had their tape(regrettably cd's were not around at that time), and i would listen to their songs. A great band with funky music!

Are you still Listening?

I came to know of Pseudo Echo with their song ' living in a dream', from the movie ' North Shore'. I've only recently begun to look into their other stuff and I'm so glad I have. I'm a little late to the party, but I'm loving this band.

[@robertglare9019]

Loved their sound, visually they were so different from what I was used to seeing in the 70s, digital drums, keyboards played like guitars, great band to watch live, Aussie, Aussie, Ausssie !!!!

Don't we just love our New Wave...wish we can bring it back again. Missing it so much. One of my favourite 80's group and one of my fave new wave song! BRILLIANT!

Heard this on my friends playlist and I've finally found the actual song by remembering the main chorus.

I saw this band live at nth coast somewhere hardly anyone there but they still played kept the music going always got time for a band that does this no matter how big or small the crowd is. Great Aussie band.

[@michaelcornelius6429]

This song reminds me of 1984 because it was getting so much airplay then. I listen to this among other Pseudo Echo's song whenever I am feeling down and reminiscence about the care-free 80s in Melbourne and all would be fine thereafter.

[@stangoodvibes]

I remember this from the 80's. I was about 18, and desperately wanted hair like the lead singer! The Simmons drums, the roland keyboard, the oen-neck jumpers ... classic 80's! Brilliant!

@Dashland13 I grew up in Chicago and heard this song once in a dance mix on the radio station WBMX, which was one of two R&B stations, and both of them were the only stations that played dance music, New Wave and synth-pop being genres included in the eclectic mixture that made up the dance scene in the 80's

[@mattleary6882]

This was my favourite album that year. A Beat For You was my favourite song. Autumnal Park was the peak of Psuedo Echo for me. It was darker, moody, charismatic and more mysterious than anything else they have done. The Simmons electric drums and bass synth of the Roland Jupiter 8 are just superb.

Shared this with my mucho friends on Facebook because it is musically pertinent in so many ways if you want to talk about 80s music. I loved the New Romantic movement within the New Wave genre and Pseudo Echo was in the tops. To the naysayers... I don't get it, really don't, and I'm ready to verbally abuse with my depth of music history knowledge. But people like that are too arrogant of opinion to change, unlike me, who simply knows they are right ;P

looking back it was an amazing privilege to be on the ground floor of the emerging disco scene in the mid 70s working with disco machines and later nightclubs right through to the late 00s. it was amazing to see a relatively small country like aus. punch way above its weight in relation to music and rock bands.

Born in the 🇺🇸 USA.. watch the Vietnam war tribute to born in the USA.. it's so very emotionally heart wrenching..I could go on forever..I really miss those wonderfull years of the 1980s/1990s..it was a time like no other,much respect also to the 1960s/1970s also!.

I wonder how people who weren't born in this decade will look back at the music from it? I mean the few who take the time to listen to it and hear it. See, I wasn't born until after the 80s so I didn't experience it in its prime, However I can take time to listen to songs and like them eventually, So one has to wonder what teenagers of 15 years from now will think of "20 year old songs" And compare them to songs from the 90s or whatever the future has in store for us.
