Some artists court fame like lovesick teenagers; others prefer to haunt the margins like musical phantoms. In 1978, a mysterious UK artist emerged to collaborate with producer Tony Rockliff on "Dear Computer"—a proto-electro pop single that arrived years before the genre had a name or a scene. While Rockliff moved to Los Angeles and the track never troubled the charts, it became a holy grail for electronic music archaeologists who recognize prescience when they hear it. The original's scarcity only deepened its mystique, turning it into the kind of find that makes crate-diggers weep with joy. Think Like A Key Music's February 2024 reissue as part of their exclusive 7" series resurrects a phantom that's haunted collections for over four decades. "Dear Computer" proves that sometimes the best artists are the ones who disappeared before the world caught up.
