Pankow sees debut re-released on vinyl – black & white – orders available now

Pioneering Italian electronic act Pankow released their first mini-album, “Throw Out Rite”, on the Electric Eye label in 1983, on cassette that was. The mini-album never saw a proper vinyl or CD release, that is until now. You can now pre-order the vinyl release for this cult mini-album. White vinyl versions are available here and limited to just 150 copies. The black vinyl versions can be purchased here.
If you prefer a CD version, you can get hold of that one right here. The digipak CD features 4 bonus tracks recorded by Pankow in the same year that “Throw Out Rite” came out (1983).
The six tracks of “Throw Out Rite” have been remastered from the original tape (not the cassette that is) while the artwork has been restored by Maurizio Fasolo. Here’s a track taken from that mini-album.
Chief editor of Side-Line – which basically means I spend my days wading through a relentless flood of press releases from labels, artists, DJs, and zealous correspondents. My job? Strip out the promo nonsense, verify what’s actually real, and decide which stories make the cut and which get tossed into the digital void. Outside the news filter bubble, I’m all in for quality sushi and helping raise funds for Ukraine’s ongoing fight against the modern-day axis of evil.
Since youâre here âŠ
⊠we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we havenât put up a paywall â we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Lineâs independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine â and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
