  • Now in HD!!! Official remastered HD video for M - Pop Muzik. Pop Muzik was one of the first new wave singles to top the charts including in the US, Australia and West Germany. The single's popularity was bolstered by this catchy video - the first from renowned video and film director Brian Grant - that featured Robin Scott (AKA M) as a DJ singing from behind turntables, and flanked by two female models providing the additional vocals... Or do they? One of the sight gags in the video depicted Brigit Novik dressed in blue who actually recorded the backup vocals which were mimed by the models. The song went on to have global success and had "everybody talkin' 'bout Pop Muzik". The original clip from1979. Boogie in a suitcase. Pop, pop, pop muzik.

    This came out when stuff like Kansas, Styx, and Queen were riding high at the top of the charts. Do you realize how STRANGE this music seemed at that time? I was 12 in 1979, and whenever this came on the radio I would turn it up loud and beg everyone to listen....my parents listened one time, then told me to play it in my room only.

      it's still imo, some of the most interesting music that's actually "catchy"...I am a good decade or more younger than you, but hearing some of this kind of music as a small child sent me later on a quest to listen to as much of this style as possible. ...I don't think 00s electro pop comes close in style or originality, though some groups like M83 managed to channel the style, it's actually called New New Wave.

My friends and I thought this was the coolest song ever made at the time. Now here it is 2023 and it still sounds like the coolest song ever made. A true classic that has stood the test of time.

    I was in high school when this came out. Having been there, I'd say that 1979 was the year that New Wave began to break big on mainstream Top 40 radio. In an era when bands like The Eagles, Led Zeppelin, Journey and REO Speedwagon , as well as disco, ruled the charts, this song, and others by The Cars, Gary Numan, Sniff N' the Tears ETC, sounded like something out of a flying saucer from another planet. This was the bleeding edge of cool. This was the future! All these years later it still sounds fresh and new.

    Synth Pop, Techno Beat, Dance Club Synth...What ever you want to call this, it took the world by storm. The 1980's were a total incubator for what I like to think of as Euro-Techno-Beat and, the sound was absolutely infectious. So many great artists producing the most different pop ever. And, it was a...HIT! From the very beginning.
