1981 was a seismic year in pop music, with a huge number of new artists making unforgettable chart debuts. We have included more than 160 tracks on the CDs of the 1981 Yearbook, the 80-84 Final Chapter, and their extras so far in our appreciation of the year. Those tracks were generally the bigger hits of the year, with their chart achievement a factor in their inclusion – however – that’s not the whole singles story of the year, and our celebration of 1981 wouldn’t be complete without shining a light on some of the years’ singles that have been compiled much less frequently over the past 40 years. Welcome to THE VAULT for 1981, 4-CDs featuring 82 tracks. Some of the tracks included were Top 40 hits, some missed the chart completely. Some were representative of massive selling albums, and some were big hits in the U.S. and not in the U.K but all are part of the wonderful pop story of 1981.

NOW Music are excited to present the next in our latest series - ‘NOW 12” 80s’. This instalment – 1981 – is released on October 20th 2023.The 12” single was a dynamic and increasingly essential part of the release schedule as the decade progressed. Incorporating extended (sometimes full album) versions, remixes, and re-inventions – they not only gave the dancefloor a longer version, and the listener an alternative take, but also highlighted the artistry of the producer – bringing together all kinds of elements to create new soundscapes woven together with the original track, either vocal or instrumental, to present another reason to be excited on release date.

ABBA was a Swedish pop music group formed in Stockholm in 1972, consisting of Anni-Frid "Frida" Lyngstad, Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson and Agnetha Fältskog. They became one of the most commercially successful acts in the history of popular music, and they topped the charts worldwide from 1972 to 1983. ABBA gained international popularity employing catchy song hooks, simple lyrics, sound effects (reverb, phasing) and a Wall of Sound achieved by overdubbing the female singers' voices in multiple harmonies. The early Polydor CDs are considered superior sounding to the later remasters, which are often shrill and/or highly compressed.

Ministry of Sound is proud to present Old Skool, collection of unforgettable music that brings some of the finest moments in R&B, dance and garage together in one helluva mix. Guaranteed to get you up and out of your seat, CD1 kicks off in style with man of the moment Craig David, followed by anthems from Justin Timberlake. CD2 lands with the garage sounds of Sweet Female Attitude, Oxide & Neutrino alongside R&B classics from R Kelly, Ginuwine and Another Level. Then CD3 brings the dance sounds of Basement Jaxx, mixed with classics from Nelly, J Kwon. Its time to celebrate the days when your life was a whole lot simpler, and passing your exams or getting a date were at the top of the worry list. These are songs that marked countless moments of your youth and are imbedded in memories from the best parties and nights out.
