Nostalgic Authenticity: “Big Time” by Rogue FX and Mayah Camara

“Big Time” by Rogue FX and Mayah Camara Today, we’re opening the gates to our blog in classic style – classic '80s synth-pop, to be precise.

The Artist: Your Friend Esteves - "Silicon Highway"

 

Your Friend Esteves liefert mit "Silicon Highway" einen gut gelungen Synth-Pop Song im Stile der 80er Jahre ab. Stimmlich erinnert es ein wenig an ABC, musikalisch gibt es gut gewählte  und wohldurchdachte Retro Sounds die perfekt ins musikalische Arrangement eingefügt werden. "Silicon Highway" ist die Single zur EP "The girl from Titan". "It’s a fictional work depicting the life of a girl, who was born and raised on Titan. While life is hard, she dreams of a life outside of Saturn’s moon. A better life. Like any underdog story.", wie er selbst sagt. So we have to say Achtung: cool 80's sound meets fictional story.
