A little synthwave 80s number I knocked out for fun with nostalgic 80s vibes, classic synthesizers like the Roland Jupiter 8 and Sequential Circuits drumtrax drum machine.

Comments and likes really help get my work listened to, thank you. 

For the best synthwave be sure to check out my other tracks which are also great driving music.

Gleaming the cube reminded me of coned retro skateboard wheels and flatspots, the fun of bombing hills and then the reality of "Oh I haven't got any more money for new wheels after wearing them out down that hill." lol!

Classic retrowave drum machines, Sequential Circuits Drumtrax, effects by EMS Rmx16 and sounds by the Roland Jupiter 8. Well maybe not the OGs but it captured that 80s sound no doubt.

Ok lets see, Sequential Circuits Drumtrax samples, EMS Rmx16 reverbs I tried to clone in Ableton LIve  and Roland Jupiter 8 sounds I made with Sylenth1. Well there you go.

Enjoy, and think twice before revisiting that hill with your 10" wide Tony Hawk with 10" Trackers and 60mm Powell Cubics! Don't forget your fluro yellow nose guard, rails, tail bone and for the true 80s skateboarder, white Tracker copers!

I was born in Ferrara on September 7, 1973. I’ve always been instinctively drawn to electronic music, but in the ‘80s, musical instruments and keyboards weren’t easily accessible to me due to my humble origins. However, with significant sacrifices, my parents gifted me a Commodore 64 as a reward for moving up to middle school. At that time, I didn’t yet realize it housed what was likely the most advanced lowcost sound chip of the era. But I discovered it soon enough through three unforgettable moments in my childhood.

The first was the music from the game Penetrator, created by Andrian Pertout. For various reasons, that music has stuck with me for 40 years; in fact, you can find a modern version of it on my SoundCloud. The second was the music of International Karate by Rob Hubbard; saying it impressed me doesn’t fully capture a moment that has stayed with me ever since. The third was an interview in Zzap! magazine in September 1986, featuring Ben Daglish (RIP), Rob Hubbard, David Whittaker, and Anthony Crowther. That interview gave me the drive and inspiration to start programming music on the C64. It took about three years before I could produce something listenable, and that demo became a sample I sent to Simulmondo, a software house in Bologna, which contacted me to start a collaboration. This was the beginning of my dream to create music for video games on the Commodore 64.

Over the years, I also collaborated with Ubisoft and Playstos Entertainment. I was known in the PC demo scene by the nickname DustBin, especially as part of the independent, non profit label Charlie Brown Records. With simple searches, you can find almost all my music from that period on Modarchive and similar sites. The demo scene allowed me to form connections and friendships that last to this day, over 20 years later.

From 2009 to 2014, I was the lead singer of one of the most representative bands of the Italian metal scene, Crying Steel, and from 2015 to 2017, I was the frontman of Blindrage, a Power Metal band with a self-titled album that was very well received by critics and fans.

Recently, I’ve decided to revive my SoundCloud page, which had been inactive for several years. I’ll aim to publish everything I’ve composed but never released over the past five years, along with remastered versions from my archive of .XM modules—a popular music format in the demoscene of the ’90s and 2000s.
