2. Discover my 80s inspired music journey
You will also find stories behind my vocal songs from first demo to radio airplay. Singers can license my instrumentals directly from the Bass Fun store for their own releases.

This is my core trio of synthesizers for daily 80s music work. Roland System 8 often paired with Integra 7 delivers rich bass lead and synth pluck parts that I record through analog cables and high quality converters. Moog Sub 37 brings raw tone for sub bass and expressive lead solos when programmed with care. Nord Lead 4 provides my favorite pluck synth sounds based on custom presets that shape many of my arrangements. Together these instruments complement VST plugins and sit naturally in the mix.

5. Shorts from the mobile studio
In this short I compose a new original idea with a solo melody plus bass and synth pluck parts in my second mobile studio using two keyboards to capture live 80s ideas quickly.
6. Custom beats and collaborations
Everything here is original and built around Italo Disco Synthwave and 80s radio pop. Alongside instrumentals I develop full vocal productions ready for release on radio and TV.
