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. Whenever the words ‘80s’ and ‘synth-pop’ are mentioned, Rogue FX is never far behind. Drawn to the essence of that decade, he dives deep to retrieve a flawless pearl and then showcases it in his musical shop window. 
His latest track is called “Big Time,” a collaborative project with Retrowave/Nu-Soul artist Mayah Camara. The story revolves around a relationship at a crossroads, caused by the success and fame of one partner who has reached the “big time” mentioned in the title. Jealousy and insecurity take hold, but there’s a shared hope that the relationship can survive and grow. 
Rogue FX cleverly packages this story in the big-city vibe of the '80s, creating an emotional counterpoint to the relationship through his astute selection of sound and rhythm – the big-time lifestyle of that era. From the start, the listener experiences the situation that has arisen in parallel and becomes part of the hope. 
Mayah Camara delivers vocally at the highest level, impressing with passion, while Andrew Wood takes on the cool, controlled part, fitting seamlessly into the scene. “Big Time” by Rogue FX and Mayah Camara can be described as a classic treat that brings back some nostalgia but also succeeds through its authenticity in 2024.
