Is he specifically looking to hit 80's material?

Personally, I'd recommend that if he's looking to stick to 80's stuff, he go for somebody like Duran Duran. Aside from digging them a lot back then, they were big on remixes anyway so there's a bit more material to work with. The songs are also pretty accessible and danceable, and given that the band is actually still alive and selling out venues, there stands a reasonable chance that a remix compilation could come together in the next year or so. And how rad would it be if one of his mixes made it onto something like that? Depeche Mode released the most amazing and rad remix collection last fall, the new mixes were as awesome as the old.

Well his brother is aleady working that market and we specifically want early 80's elecrtro funk. He did a great job tonight, although he think's he didn't.
cheers!
