    ekt is probably a new wave song from 1983/1984.
    because you can hear:
    vocals
    synth (DX7?)
    guitar
    linn lm-2 (might be sampled)
    guitar bass

    I feel like those people who literally claimed EKT as city pop either have no idea what city pop actually is or never heard what Japanese sounds like in their lives. City pop was actually invented by idol producers who thought songs sung by underage girls with roland jazz templates on 80's pop music chords with indiscernible english lyrics would be a good idea and has nothing to do with actual Japanese new wave. Here's an example:
    If your song is from a random obscure 80's collab: it's japanese new wave (yapoos, etc.).
    If your song is sung by Creamy Mami: it's fucking city pop.

    Listening recently on EKT, I hear much more instruments in the first half. So I have a feeling that the "You're counting all the sheets […] world of lies" part could be the chorus for the song, and the Everyone Knows It part could be the outro or something

    Ever since I heard EKT, I always thought that the singer's vocals sounded almost identical to those of Max Coveri, artist of "Running in the 90s" who made multiple Italo Disco songs.

    • @FryTheGreat
      @FryTheGreat 6 місяців тому +1

      The problem is that Max Coveri is an alias that has been through four different artists. The Max Coveri who sung "Running in the 90s" is Maurizio De Jorio. The Italo Disco era stuff was either Mauro Farina or Massimo Brancaccio who died in 2005. (RIP)

    speaking of quebec. there is another song on watzatsong that has yet to be identified that has been given the title "just a game". the vocals on that song sound somewhat similar to those of jean marc pisapia of the band "the box" which is a band from quebec that get radio play quite frequently in canada but i dont think they have any fame outside of canada.

    Someone pointed out that if you listen closely to the clip, you can hear Carl92 eating a chip. But, what if it’s not him eating the chip. What if the song was in a commercial for a company that makes chips and that sound was an actor eating a chip in the commercial.

  • @mht5875

    I read a little bit about Italo-disco making its way to Canada - since EKT has the NTSC sound, it was likely taped from a Canadian television show and ended up in its present 17-second clip. The show could have been picked up by Spanish television , perhaps a more likely scenario is that someone copied the song to an internet music sharing program, finally ending up on Carl92's disc files. I'm a member of the EKT subreddit, too.

      @@ybxrds I was thinking since italo pop was dying out in the beginning of the 80s that maybe instead of checking popular sources I should look for shows or bands that began to die out. Maybe a band had an album that wasn’t released due to italo pop not being popular and it’s just floating around somewhere. And also that leads me to think the lyrics might be Italian, but I’m not sure

    I don't know if this will be considered as a credible or possible lead to this song, but I believe I may be able to offer up a clue as to who the singer behind this song could possibly be, I believe this song may have originated from the popular 80s cartoon show JEM and the holograms a show of which I grew up watching as a kid. As I was conducting my own research I began to realize that this song sounds very familiar and the singer sounds very familiar to the Singer from JEM, so if I had to make an educated guess this song could of possibly appeared from an unaired pilot that somehow never got shown or from an unknown episode of the show. It's been a very long time since I have seen this show. Also the Singer and voice actress of JEM was Samantha Newark who is British and the singer on this song happens to somehow have a British accent. I could be wrong on this, but this is what am theorizing and hypothesizing at the moment. Hopefully were one step closer to figuring out this long awaited mystery. Until then I am going to stick with my theory.

    • @ybxrds

    i feel like the genre is Alternative or Pop, not the Sub Genre "City Pop", just "Pop" and if it isnt "Pop" or a sub genre of "Pop" its gotta be something similar or its an "Alternative" song, like "Alternative Pop" or something similar to "Alternative Pop" cause i feel like the full song has some sorta bass or lead guitar because the Tokyo City Pop songs ive heard usually have a lead or bass guitar in it, for example (recent ones on apple music ive found) "Yorokobi No Hi" by "SHE'S "Kinmokuseino Yoru" by "Kinoko Teikoku" and "Tokyo Girl" by "Perfume" all have some sort of lead or bass guitar in it, so these ai reconstructions are probably wrong if EKT is a Tokyo City Pop song with some english lyrics that just so happened to be recorded by carl. (edit) so i believe EKT is a Tokyo City Pop song

    Hi, 🤓 I’ve been studying and listening to the genre for a couple of years and I have some thoughts. Note that this isn’t to discourage searching in this genre, but simply to add context and information so we can be as accurate as we can be.
    -Italo-disco and songs grouped with Italo-disco in the Americas usually are known as Hi-NRG. This was to avoid the negative connotations associated with disco following 1979. Good example, Living on Video by Trans-X.
    -Likewise, Italo-disco is too narrow of a term and those made in places like Germany or the UK are usually known as Euro-disco.
    -Italo-disco artists tend to use aliases to hide their actual names. Some even use dozens of them and even share them. For example, Danny Keith, Radiorama, and Max Coveri were used by different singers including Mauro Farina, Marco Bresciani, Gianni Coraini, and various others.
    -Those who make actual Italo-disco tend to have a very thick accent. Even those who make the Spanish variant known as “Sabadell sound.”
    -Italo-disco and related genres have a very distinctive rhythm pattern and chord progression that doesn’t sound like EKT. Italo-disco and its related genres always use 4 on the floor and EKT uses syncopated rhythm commonly found in funk and R&B.
