A.K.A. Motown Revival
摩城之声(Motown Sound)是由Berry Gordy创立的底特律唱片公司摩城唱片(Motown Records)发展起来的标志性流行灵魂乐(Pop Soul)风格,在20世纪60年代获得了巨大成功。Fauxtown是来自后代的一个音乐概念,它直接使用与摩城之声相同的录音方法。这些音乐大多出自白人音乐家之手,他们是80年代及以后更广泛的 Blue-Eyed Soul/流行灵魂乐运动的一部分。这一新浪潮影响了Daryl Hall & John Oates等老牌流行音乐家,以及Culture Club和Simply Red等后来被称为Sophisti-Pop的新兴乐队,The Jam还将这股新的Blue-Eyed Soul浪潮融入Mod Revival。这一风格在20世纪80年代继续影响了更多的灵魂乐乐队,包括主唱Paul Weller自己的乐队The Style Council。
