KOROVA MUSIC POLICY
The Korova play list contains the musical highlights of the last 30 years. From early experiments with electronic equipment, new electric guitars and synthesizers, rock excursions into more progressive pastures post Sixties, to the Punk and New Wave movements of the late Seventies and early Eighties that dominated New York City. Influences come from clubs like CBGB's to what evolved from the more localized scenes in England, and the bands that came out of Liverpool, Manchester, Sheffield and London. From the Eighties we move to the Nineties through the Indie and Brit Pop movements, the emergence of Hip Hop as a serious contender and the Electro that sprang from ghetto block parties all over the globe.
Throughout the day you can hear Brian Eno, David Bowie, Iggy Pop and The Stooges, New York Dolls, Blondie, Richard Hell, The Ramones, Patti Smith, Suicide, The Misfits, The Cramps, The B52's, Television, Lou Reed and The Velvet Underground, Talk Talk, Sparks, Kraftwerk, The Human League, Gary Numan, ABC, Sex Pistols, Public Image Limited, The Clash, Depeche Mode, John Foxx and Ultravox, OMD, The Teardrop Explodes, The Fall, Echo & The Bunnymen, The Smiths, The Pixies, Bauhaus, Spacemen 3, The Sisters of Mercy, Joy Division and New Order, the list runs on.
Korova also showcase's the best in new music, a healthy eclectism with a fervor for the cutting edge. The past few years have witnessed scenes evolving and merging as boundaries have become blurred and blinkers have been dropped. This is reflected in our nighttime play list.
Korova has a simple rule of thumb when booking bands to perform live.
We like them, we think they're good and we try our best to bring them to Liverpool.
We hope you like them too.
