My homage to the 80'ies 3 min up-tempo synth-pop songs

elkanah77

Tried to capture the essence of the fun, up-tempo and a bit melancholy synth-pop of the 80'ies. The decade I loved so much. I made this with a lot of old gear for the music Rolands, Korgs and Yamaha DX of course. Shot on the Sony A6000 with the kit-lens and the 55mm 1.8. Some shots are with the iPhone 6 and a 4K hack to get some movement going.

I actually is working on a track right now that a friend of mine suggested I should send to Van Damme haha. Thanks for your comments and glad you liked it. As for the jeans... well they've served me well for a long time now. ;-)

No frakkin way! Another Synthwaver on P-V! Excellent track with spot on sound, killer vocals and gobsmackingly good progressions :-) You can't go wrong with the wholy trinity of a Juno 6, a DX7 and a DW6000. Extra points for the ripped jeans!

Do you have Soundcloud?

Very cool @elkanah77. Reminds me of a cross between soundtracks for an 80s Van Damme movie and some kind of White Nights Gregory Hines thing...the sad moments after someone dies...just before they rally to make the comeback.

Great song! Not out of place at all, with today's mash-up of music styles!
