Gary Numan Vinyl Records

Gary Numan is a British singer, songwriter, composer, and musician who achieved international success in the late 1970s and early 1980s with his pioneering electronic sound. He is considered one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century and is widely regarded as the father of modern electronic music.

Numan's breakout success came in 1979 with the single "Are 'Friends' Electric?" and his second album The Pleasure Principle, both of which featured heavily synthesized instrumentation and a futuristic, dystopian theme. His other standout albums include Replicas (1979), Telekon (1980), and Dance (1981).

Numan is known for his distinct vocal style, which combines a deep baritone with a thin, high-pitched croon. His sound has been described as "cold, robotic and detached". His best-known songs include "Cars", "Down in the Park", and "My Name Is Ruin".

An interesting fact about Gary Numan is that he was one of the first mainstream musicians to embrace the internet, launching his own website in 1997. He has also been a lifelong sci-fi fan, and his lyrics often explore futuristic, dystopian themes.
