There is more than one artist with this name: synth pop music duo from Australia and alternative rock group from Slovakia.
Australian Neuropa
Neuropa formed originally in 1992 (then known as Aura before a name change in 1996) when long time friends Jason Last & Albert Martinez decided to bring their broad musical influences together in an exploration of electronic pop. Through long recording & writing sessions they worked on establishing an original interpretation of music. Stylistically covering electro-pop to the melancholy and everything in between.
The emphasis of Neuropa is on creating interesting songs with memorable melodic & lyrical elements, while creating a unique mood, with the obvious use of synthesizers as an expressive tool. Toward mid 1993, 2 Neuropa tracks appeared on a cassette compilation `This Tech Know Fear’, featuring an embrionic version of `New Faith’ & an industrial experiment `Sent’. The tape was an independant showcase of progressive Sydney techno / rock / industrial & dance acts, forming the Kollectiv.
Albert & Jason sought to take Neuropa’s sound a step further. Writing & recording began in earnest in 1993, where several tracks `Secrets’, `Make Our Way’ and an electro version of Pete Shelley’s `Homosapien’ helped Neuropa to take the stage as a live act, performing throughout Sydney’s nightclubs & hotels supporting other electronic artists.
1997 saw the formation of Silicon Underground Records, enabling them to release material and make it available to fans of their music. A full length debut 10 track album “New Faith” was released that year, tracks recorded, produced and written in their studio.

There should be some distinction at last.fm, I hate it when there's just one profile for all the bands/artists with the same name. I listen to Slovakian Neuropa, never heard of the Australian one before.

very nice band. It sounds like a mixture of the pre-Depeche Mode and Erasure. The same naive sound, but I like it anyway! Thanks Australia!

slovak mainstream is very boring, but unfortunately it´s very difficult to find some alternative music. Slovak Neuropa is not a heavy metal band - I don´t like heavy metal. Neuropa consist of the best sloavkian alternative artists - it´s a combination of electronic music, and an alternative rock - breakbeat, samples and lot of wind instruments
