Marc Juno brilliantly uses cutting-edge production techniques to enhance the vintage elements in this 80s-inspired Synthpop project. Naturally, the quality destroys anything from back in the day; yet he preserves the undeniable catchiness that made those classic jams impossible to resist.
Italo Disco Influence, and Pure Synth Bliss
Here’s where things get interesting! Marc Juno’s Italian heritage brings a genuine touch to his compositions, especially on tracks like “Autostrada.” Moreover, this Italo Disco influence is evident not just there, but subtly woven throughout the rest of the EP.
“Autostrada” also captures that exact feeling of freedom and adventure that defined the genre. Plus, its cheesy charm makes it highly danceable.
On a side note, these songs hit you with a strange sense of déjà vu, even when you’re hearing them for the first time. Not to mention, it’s that amalgam of emotion, style, and memory that makes this 80s-inspired Synthpop record so authentic.
All in all, this material goes beyond language and culture because great music speaks to everyone, whether you’re driving in the car or singing in the shower.
Standout Tracks That Define Excellence
“Back To The Night,” “Autostrada,” and “Dreams Of Neon Nights” are masterpieces that showcase everything Marc Juno does best. Despite being thoroughly rooted in 80s aesthetics, these cuts seem fresh and contemporary. In other words, that’s the mark of truly exceptional songwriting and production.
Each one is radio-friendly and practically begging for you to sing along at the top of your lungs! In addition, his vocals are completely infectious.
All that emotion and nostalgic energy just pours out of every tune.
Lastly, if you’re a fan of The Weeknd‘s retro-charged hits, Marc Juno’s ‘Time Machine’ EP offers an incredible alternative that dives even deeper into that old-school essence.
Without further ado, stop searching for new songs that sound like the 80s; this is the real deal you’ve been waiting for!
