Dana Jean Phoenix - Komplicated (Silent Gloves Remix)



Dana Jean Phoenix and Silent Gloves are a match made in heaven. They both are so rooted in the New, New Wave movement that this is nothing but spectacular from them. Dana Jean's vocals are beautifully nostalgic and you could easily expect to hear her sharing a stage with Martika or so many other talented artists from the 80s.  Silent Gloves has been killing it mixing and remixing so many amazing tracks in this genre and this mix is no different than the quality you've come to expect to hear from him.  Amazing remix. Amazing track.  Want to hear so much music from them.

Silent Gloves - One for the Money



Silent Gloves is one of the most talented synthwave producers that you've never heard of. He and a handful of other artists are pioneering this genre and creating music that harkens back to a much simpler time. Well a time full of beautiful synth textures and layers.  Synth pop is generally my go to genre because I love everything New Wave. I love the sounds, the ambiance, the overall feeling that music that has been artfully crafted like this gives you. Some people may look at synth pop not as "real music" but I've always considered it much deeper in some aspects because everything has to be created from the ground up. The programming of the track and the placement of the loops borders on an enigmatic puzzle as the producer is putting everything in place to make music.

"One for the Money" is the latest track from Dayton, Ohio based Silent Gloves and it is just an amazingly cool song that you just get lost in. It's funky and cool and fills you with an amazing nostalgia that feels right. Throw the talented Dana Jean Phoenix on vocals into this mix and you've got a delicious gem of a track that makes you feel like you're racing down the pixelated streets of a 16 bit animated action adventure. There aren't many vocalists like Dana Jean encapsulating the retro feel these songs require and she's quickly become the go-to when you need someone to do justice to the lyrics and take the song to a whole new level.

Keep up with Silent Gloves on his Soundcloud for more amazing tracks and remixes.
