"The seductive sounds of Portugal swing to Dark Entries on
Rock Rendez Vous: Música Moderna Portuguesa 1985-1986
, a compilation of vintage Iberian synth, wave, and postpunk gems. The legendary club Rock Rendez Vous (RRV) opened its doors in Lisbon in 1980, heralding a new era in the Portuguese underground. Although touring acts like
Killing Joke
,
Danse Society
, or
Echo & the Bunnymen
graced its stage, RRV more vitally served as ground zero for a new generation of Portuguese bands, one simultaneously in touch with broader international musical movements while being invested in establishing a national sonic identity.
Rock Rendez Vous
culls nine tracks of prime Portuguese indie tunes from the Música Moderna Portuguesa compilations released in 1985 and 1986, documenting the heyday of this movement. Jangly and brooding postpunk gems like 'Levante' from
Jovem Guarda
,
Projecto Azul
's 'New Sides,' and
Essa Entente
's 'Festa Final' are well-represented here. Meanwhile, quirky Balearic-laced synthpop gems like
D. W. Art
's 'Mate' or
Zona Proibida
's 'Musak' add a subtly regional flare.
Rock Rendez Vous: Música Moderna Portuguesa
comes housed in a sleeve designed by
Eloise Leigh
featuring a photo of the club RRV, and also includes a double-sided insert with lyrics, photos, and liner notes."
