So I decided to listen to more of Trio's songs and found out I like them! Some aren't technically synthpop, though. So do I post them here? Or do I not? I think I'll go find a spot for more Trio songs in the New Wave section or Neue Deutche Welle thread (if one exists).
that's the only song of theirs I know

Bah, I couldn't find the New Wave section and I'm too apathetic at this moment to make a Deutche Welle Thread, so I'll post a few more Trio songs here. They *do* include the Casio (sometimes), so that's synthpoppy.

Trio - Bum Bum
Here is my time to confess that my music fetish is German. I'll like pretty much any song with German in it.




Trio - Bye Bye
They sound like MGMT here! Huh. Not synthpop, though.




Trio - Girl, Girl, Girl
Also not synthpop.




Wait! Here's one of their songs that uses some synthesizer! Phew! Back on track:

Trio - Ready for You

I think Trio's main identity is "Da Da Da!"

Okay, here's another song by Trio. I see simplicity and a bit of quirkiness as their main identity. So what genre would you put this song in? (The "erm" genre? )

Trio - Herz Ist Trumpf
German!!!

Azul y Negro: Me estoy volviendo loco ("I'm Losing My Mind"). Very popular in the early 80's.

Me estoy volviendo loco.....................I'm losing my mind.
Poco a poco................Little by little.

In that case, this thread urgently needs these two Kraftwerk songs:

Ivana Spagna: Easy Lady (1986) and Call Me (1987).
