adeyhawke.


adeyhawke comes from dublin, ireland and his tracks have been on constant repeat everywhere i go in the last few days and i don't see it stopping any time soon - actually i can't remember the last time i have heard any music that is as beautiful as his. his sound is best described as retro synthesizers and 80s night drive coolness meeting very dreamy ambient/idm elements, so think of valerie meeting boards of canada, a band that adeyhawke admires and is inspired by which explains the slightly aged, filtered feel of his tracks.

anoraak is already a fan and is patiently waiting for adeyhawke to come up with his remix of 'nightdrive with you'. so am i. and so is crls. and so will you after listening to the two tracks he gave me for this feature:

adeyhawke - adeyhawke theme
adeyhawke - skyscraped

adeyhawke is currently working on more tracks and will then consider a release, so it might be a good time for you labels out there to hit him up right now. show him some myspace love and i will try my best to keep you posted on his upcoming tracks.

wow that last anonymous really has no idea. The similarity in names and timing is funny though. As in funny ha ha

Anonymous said...

to anonymous 2:this and the similar tracks are not exactly nor purely 80's..

They use the same/similar synths,would you prefer some instruments to be replaced with guitar? if so check another blog,

Maybe you would you prefer some 90's or maybe even more distortion? its purely a certain style some people appreciate..and hey at least it has some style..

benjamin: word up!

80s will always be relevant

disco aint dead
synth tech. is booming
and someone needs to pick up the loose ends

although all this scandinavian italo-pop (yes that is a real genre)
is worth attention too
