I started this audio path with the 80s in mind, and also important milestones that came after the 80s. This project, to me, is about searching for a way to combine the aesthetics of two musical paradigms. If 80s music was future music, this music is their future’s future.

I made sure to use synthesis forms that were pioneered in the this time period, such as FM. I also used samples from drum kits of that era.

I chose 118 bpm as well, because it is an awesome tempo, nuff said.

The melody and progression is a tad cheeky. I don’t know how I feel about this. The sappy but super-catchy melodies of that time period weren’t always the best trait of the time.
