A little back history here... For those of you that don't know, my older brother, Mark and I got into New Wave music back when we were in high school thanks to a man named Jeff Pokryfke. The man is obsessed, and due to that obsession, my ears are forever blessed :)

But seriously, I can't get enough synth pop, electronic claps, crazy vibrato, spoken lyrics, guys in falsetto, and drum machine beats! Mark and I took it upon ourselves to write a few songs ourselves because we were so inspired by bands such as Pet Shop Boys, Yaz, New Order, and The Flirts. Here is the song that became our HIT among the local youth groups back in the day.
