Jordan F’s ‘Summers Of Tomorrow’ EP

jordan-f1

Jordan F is fast becoming the Vangelis of the SynthWave world. After dropping a bunch of beach party tunes Jordan seems to have turned his attention to soundtracking a dystopian future, as he does in his latest EP for Rosso Corsa Records.

The ‘Summers of Tomorrow’ EP is a journey through rain the back streets of some megacity, bather on a neo glow with only the rain for company. The EP kick off with ‘Beginnings’ which, as you can imagine, is a sweeping, epic, title sequence peice, slow basslines, reminiscent of the ‘80’s ‘V’ are accompanied by some powerful melodic work that draws you in and sets you up for the other three tracks. ‘Abandoned Streets’ drops you right into the ‘plot’ of the EP, moody Italo beats and basslines and Sci-Fi synths convey the mood of Jordan’s future metropolis. His skilful melding of Italo, Outrun Electro and EBM allows him to create these Cyberpunk atmospheres in his tracks without ever becoming over-run by it, as with ‘Renegade’, you realise Jordan can evoke this BladeRunner-esque imagery, but never looses sight of just being a good song either. ‘Renegade’ is both narratively exciting and a damn good retro Italo tune. The EP wraps up with the title track, the rousing, hopeful, aftermath of the release. this has been an amazing year for Jordan F, having gone from Dreamwave newcomer to one of the big players of the SynthWave scene and a bit of a wizard behind the synths.

Jordan F gets Sci-Fi

jordan f

Jordan F almost verging into EBM territory with his new track ‘Crime In The Forth Sector’.

The BladeRunner inspired, and heavily sampling, track is in stark contrast to Jordan’s usual ‘80’s aspirational party and nightdrive tunes, it’s a slice of Sci-Fi moodiness that could quite easily be the soundtrack to any number of ‘80’s post-BladeRunner straight-to-video flicks (I’m thinking Nemesis etc…) with it’s mid-paced industrial beats, EBM basslines and heavy retro chords. Imposing stuff!

Embryonik’s new EP

Embryonik

This Friday sees the release of Embryonik’s new EP ‘Skyscraper on binalog productions.

Containing three three original tracks and five choice reMixes the EP is an evocative, synthetic, audio journey through a dark metropolis. Kicking off with ‘Watergun’, a track that bleeds Italo into B-Boy Electro, the listener is already presented with the soundtrack to rain soaked, neon lit, future streets. Like the dark cousin of Italo, ‘Watergun’ presents Vangelis-esque atmospheres with EBM basslines. The mood continues into ‘Elevator’, a track with a soaring melody that seems to tell a story set against machine beats. This track in particular contains some really sweet synthesizer flourishes. ‘Burning Bridges’ ends the original tracks in a reflective future Disco style. ‘80’s Italo forms the backbone for strings and racing leads to lift you out of the concrete oppression. Whether or not it was intended, there is a definite narrative feel to the EP, a trilogy of tracks that take you by the hand through a post BladeRunner cityscape. The reMix package is worth the price alone, our friend Jordan F provides the standout mix of ‘Elevator’, a laid back, uplifting antidote to the original’s doom and gloom, maybe injecting a little romance into Embryonik’s gritty Sci-Fi flick.

Jordan F’s ‘Last Night’

jordan f

One of the things I love about producers interacting with listeners on social media is they are always offering incentives for followers or likes, and in that situation everyone wins!

So, one of out favourite Aussie synth wizards Jordan F has offered up this track in celebration of hitting the 550 fans mark on Facebook. Surely the man deserves more than this? Jordan makes those synths sing. As a producer he’s definitely finding the right balance between emotive and atmospheric, and dancefloor as his tunes both conjure up and emotional resonance but are also a stomping good time.

Sydney Dreamwave producer Jordan F is holed up on some sun kissed beach somewhere ‘hard at work’ on his début artist album.

In the meantime he’s put together a free EP for Rosso Corsa Records featuring re-mastered version of ‘Definitely Miami’ and ‘Outrun’, which we’ve featured a while back, and a new track, ‘Cupido’. As you probably know by now, Mr. F makes some of the finest Synthwave and Nu-Disco coming out of down under and these three tracks are all prefect examples of his power drums and sparkling 80’s-esque melodies. Grab some headphones, sit back, relax and let Jordan F take to to summers of the past.

Jordan F’s new EP

jordanf

Here we have two new tracks from Jordan F’s forthcoming EP.

The Syndey producer is soon to be treating us to a full EP of his slick retro synth epics. ‘Outrun’ is the EP’s lead track, straight-up Dreamwave electro it has all the elements you want. Driven by a punchy digital bass ‘Outrun’ is an extravagant homage to all things 80s and action packed with an upbeat hook, a sweet breakdown and a training montage of a middle eight. The EP continues with ‘Night Pursuit’ which is more of the same but with a moodier, more introspective, vibe. The 80’s bass and leads really shine through in this track. Both track nicely mix up nostalgic melodies and retro synths with solid beats and a Disco flavour. The EP will be defiantly something you should check out.

Jordan F’s ‘Definitely Miami’

Syndey based producer Jordan F send on over his latest creation, a track called ‘Definitely Miami’.

Jordan hopes it “makes you think of Crockett and Tubbs in a car chase chasing criminals through the streets of Miami”, give it ‘til the midway point and it defiantly does. He’s got some nice 80’s TV theme tropes in there from the drums fills to the power chords, all wrapped up with a deep retro bassline to give it that bit of groove.
