Electronic Music: Miami Nights 1984

Miami Nights 1984 is Michael Glover from Victoria, BC, Canada. Miami Nights tries to embody the soft warm feeling of an 80s John Hughes film, characterized by smooth synthesizers and nostalgic solos. Born in 1982 on Vancouver island in British Columbia Canada he has been able to draw inspiration from his surrounding environment and romantic dreams.

His obsession with the 1980s has led to the founding of Rosso Corsa Records and a revival of synthesizer music. With Rosso Corsa he is championing many artists such as Mitch Murder, Lazerhawk and Jordan F to make 1980s-inspired music with modern fidelity. 


The genre of the music could be called a number of things; electronic, nu disco amongst others, but the most accurate would probably be "modern 80's synthpop."
And here are a couple of my favorites from the artist:

Didn't notice before, but nostalgic imagery seems to be a theme in the music I like.
