Calvin Harris sung about life was better in the 80s and artists like Sydney-based Jordan F have been incorporating this theory into their music since the re-emergence of the cheesy synth sounds of chillwave.
There’s something strangely motivational about the sounds of phat-filtered Roland synths and TR-808s, but Jordan F takes it a step further- with just enough modern flair to avoid invoking images of jelly bracelets and, like, totally grody hairdos (see what I did?- 80s slang).
If I was going to go back in time have sex with the hot redhead from the breakfast club… or Ferris Bueller’s girlfriend- I’d have something like Aurora as the soundtrack for sure.
