RetroWave / Outrun

Equal parts nostalgic synthwave sounds and modern production.

There's no past, no future, everything flows in an eternal present...

"Saturday mods, The Scene, look like they are having a right old laugh at all North Wales’ expense. This five piece all stand at different heights; gangly, short and odd, yet their sound and presentation oddly calls for the uniformity of mod rule. Small Faces, knock-off Harringtons, Liam Gallagher dead ringers, smashing up chippies, breaking windows and doing runners from B&Bs in Welsh coastal resorts like Llandudno - it’s all here and some! And then you hear them play. A staggeringly tight Spencer Davis groove with thrusting Moseley Shoals guitars and Weller like thrust. They break the room apart with a wall of noise. Some even complain it’s too loud – always a good sign when you don’t see said complainants leaving. "

Taken from the TREP024D by Alan Dixon "Motel 4000" EP

-----
The 80's are back in full force on Alan Dixon’s debut for Tensnake’s True Romance imprint. The London producer is on the rise with releases on Lumberjacks In Hell and Running Back this year alone. “Motel 4000” serves as a further assertion of his prodigious talent in the studio.
Title track “Motel 4000” dishes out a full body experience with a powerful italo chug, vintage chord progressions and racy trance undertones. Watch out for the piano house choruses that sound like they’ve been pulled out straight out of a classic. It’s a big one.
On the flip, Patootie Tango is a like- minded cousin. Big disco claps and jazz funk inflections command proceedings here and make for a perfect early night heater.

By day, the East London producer FNP spends his time managing & promoting artists in the mainstream space. A career in music has given him the knowledge & experience of how the industry works, resulting in a more savvy approach to releasing music.

Originally from just outside Luton, FNP began his musical journey making drum and bass. While at university in Nottingham, his work started to get him attention in all the right places leading to sets supporting world renowned acts such as Enei, S.P.Y, Netsky, Newham Generals & loads more.. All this work & network of people eventually led to him being lined up for a music industry job a few years down the line. At the same time, his record label Slinkiemusic picked up some notable fans including Teki Latex, Avalon Emerson, Ross From Friends, Loxy & Resound & Palace.

Now focusing on his own projects, the London producers music has gained support from Thump Magazine, Clash, Datatransmission and Complex with many more following suit. His remixes with artists across the world have also received overwhelming support from Spotify, bringing his streams to over 300k in the past year, as well as features on their influential Techno State playlist. The London production enigma, has never been one to shy away from experimenting with different genres. previous releases have explored Disco, Synthwave, Techno and Bass music. Working out of his studio in Hackney Wick, his releases in 2019 have pushed the envelope for 303 style acid basslines. "We Are The Gods" was heavily supported by Spotify as well as a number of tastemaker blogs. The follow-ups "No Real Perspective" and “'Acid on Wick Lane', went on to support from Dummy Magazine and The Classy Issue. He finished the release cycle with “Breathe” and the whole catalogue has racked up over 100k streams on Spotify

After a short hiatus, the prolific producer returns with potentially his most innovative track to date. The title of the new single “Interlinked” references a famous scene in Bladerunner, and you can hear the East Londoner was heavily influenced by the seminal soundtrack. It’s a potent piece of Synthwave-House, with a crunchy bassline driving the momentum throughout the piece. 

“I’ve always been obsessed with the Bladerunner soundtrack, and have always wanted to bring that style to a club-friendly track. So with this one I really went for it, analogue synth layers and plenty of 80’s nostalgia.. I wanted it to have a slightly dark edge to it as well and I hope that comes across!”

Benny Smiles is an Irish synthwave/retrowave producer based in London. Favouring electronic instruments, vintage synthesisers and drum machines, his most recent work nods to M83, Neon Indian, and Com Truise. Think Stranger Things / Drive / Hotline Miami soundtracks and you’re most of the way there.

“When We Touch” marks Benny's fourth release, and is the first single from his forthcoming “Fearless Leadership” EP. It follows the "Hotline Miami 2 EP”, which is featured in the cult video game Hotline Miami 2 and in Spotify’s Retrowave / Outrun editorial playlist, both of which have helped to garner an international audience and more than 5 million streams of the EP across various platforms.

Benny’s latest material follows a period of focus on his work in studio engineering, building his knowledge of old school recording techniques and equipment in some legendary recording studios, and learning first hand from some of the world’s most renowned record producers, songwriters, and artists. Having cultivated a collection of vintage analogue synthesisers and audio processors along the way, he now returns with a newfound appreciation for sonics, analogue imperfection, and the soul that lives in electronic instruments.

Prompted by the tongue-in-cheek artwork, the most pressing question about the Fearless Leadership EP thus far has been “is your face really that small?” And the answer is... it could be.

Benny Smiles has supported artists including London Grammar and Ghostpoet, and performed at festivals including Electric Picnic, Indiependence, Castlepalooza, and Ireland Music Week.

INDUBLIN.IE: “First [at Hard Working Class Heroes festival], to the Workman’s Club for one-man electro wonder machine Benny Smiles. Infectiously upbeat loops, guitar, and Bowie-esque vocals, with the occasional healthy dose of slap bass was warmly met by the crowd. Yet it was Smiles’ stage presence that really endeared him to those present. Informing us early in the set he had foolishly taken a valium to help fight off a flu; if he is this good when sick and under the influence you can only image how good he is when on top form. A definite highlight of the festival, how this guy isn’t already huge is a mystery.”

 
GOLDENPLEC: “[Somehow Yours Do] is a beauty of a track with hypnotising synths and a captivating video”

 
NIALLER9: “Benny Smiles has given me one of my favourite tracks of the last month already with ‘Sunday Morning’”

 
PUFFERFISH: “Playful, fun, fucking awesome… Benny Smiles is making funky electronic music that you can really enjoy. And we mean really enjoy.”

CHASSEUR MAGAZINE: “Benny is by far the most charming, energetic, addictive, unique and pleasurable acts of the [Hard Working Class Heroes] festival so far. He asks everyone to take “seven steps forward” and then proceeds to move and shake across the stage, never missing a note. The audience are in the palm of his hand throughout, truly captivated by his inescapable talent, showing many of the bands how it is done. Industry execs must be salivating at the prospects he presents.”

 
HOTPRESS: “‘Moonlight’ featuring Ham Sandwich’s Niamh Farrell is radio-friendly whimsy at its finest. Known to his postman as Ross Fortune, this shapeshifting musicmaker has covered a whole lot of musical ground…barely stepping a foot wrong”

 
GOLDENPLEC: “With [Sunshine / Moonlight] Benny Smiles shows that he is a diverse and talented artist. His willingness to use different instrumentation and sounds results in tracks that are varied and unique and aurally tantalizing. It is solid proof that he doesn’t have to rely on novelty to grab an audience’s attention.”

 
AOIFE MC RTÉ 2XM: “[‘Sunday Morning’ is] definitely, definitely my favourite of the whole podcast [Nialler9 Podcast 39]…it’s so much fun!”
