The Body Electric

The Body Electric is a name shared by several bands, but one of the most notable is the New Zealand electronic band formed in 1982 by Alan Jansson. Initially known as Alan Jimson, Jansson, along with Andy Drey, began experimenting with synthesizers and drum machines, drawing inspiration from acts like Kraftwerk and The Human League. They were later joined by Garry Smith and Wendy Calder, creating a synth-pop sound that was groundbreaking in New Zealand's music scene. Their debut single, "Pulsing," became a significant hit, staying in the charts for 27 weeks. The band released their debut album, "Presentation and Reality," in 1983, which also gained popularity. Despite their early success, The Body Electric disbanded in 1984, but their influence on New Zealand's electronic music remains significant.

The list of releases you provided seems to belong to a different iteration of The Body Electric, as the New Zealand band's known discography includes "Pulsing," "Dreaming In A Life," "Imagination," and the album "Presentation and Reality."
