"The word "cyberpunk" was coined by writer Bruce Bethke, who wrote a story with that title in 1980."
but this was not even as subculter, yet alone a thing people recognized. to me Neuromancer also marks the onset of cyberpunk culture, but Kylie Minogue was among the few artists such as Bjork, who seemed to be bold enough to explore it artistically.
Probably closer to retro-futurism x club culture
2. Sadly the article neglects to mention Haroumi Hosono, whose vocals are also on the track. If you haven't checked out his work, either solo or with YMO, it's well worth a listen.
(2) The page has the most playful "Accept cookies?" control of what I've encountered so far.
For 2001 it has a rather striking effect. Kylie is walking around a circular area in Paris over and over and everything multiplies each time she completes a loop. It's a very clever effect given the technology of the time. By the end of the video there are five Kylies walking around loosely interacting with each other and the world in odd ways.

I've seen similar reporting here and there in TV coverage of her show prep and so on, after an accidental viewing of "White Diamond" made me an interested party.
Edit, the article says “across”, not a #1 album in every decade. In the 90s she only reached #4.

This is also the “murder ballad” that the article refers to.
> In 1995 she collaborated on a murder ballad duet with Nick Cave

There’s a few an interesting tracks on that album. I quite liked “Death is not the end”, which I think was the last track on Murder Ballards and also features Kylie (amongst a few others).

She collaborated with Nick Cave in the mid 90's which was a massive hit, it was all over radio at the time.
Sharing it.

Sadly, that live version is the only one I can find streaming anywhere. The album version (which I have on CD) uses a sample of a dot matrix printer to play the part that the brushed snare does on that live version.
Ryan Gosling is such a great comedic actor.
And the handle-comment synergy is chef's kiss :-)

Some other artists I can recommend with similar specific Japanese vibes, Denki Groove and Yellow Magic Orchestra are really good.
another great unexpected music x font crossover is gucci mane tweeting about "Times New Roman"
Has the author misspelled Kylie's surname in the article heading or am I missing something?
