Vocoder

Vocoder was formed in 1981 in Zaragoza. Antonio Laval and Ildefonso Olarte, young high school classmates, together with Antonio Tenas, from Radio Juventud, formed this group inspired by the "Movida Madrileña" and the synth-pop. With the incorporation of Pilar Pellicer they have a positive response of Neon Danza (Discos DRO) that leads to record the Maxi 'What Happens Now' in 1984, 'Mindanao' in 1985 and the LP 'Vocoder' in 1987, published in several countries of South America.

They also take part in the compilations 'Hasta Aquí Hemos Llegado' and '¿Dónde Estabas Tú en el 87?', published in 1986 and 1993 respectively together with the most important groups of the Spanish scene at the time. They also participate in the T.V.E. shows "Tocata" and "La Bola De Cristal", a reference point for the music of the time. [SOURCE: GRUPOS NACIONALES NUEVA OLA 80]
