Spectrum

She wore the sky like a velvet disguise
Dancing with ghosts in electric blue eyes
He spoke in riddles, a language of wires
A touch like a secret, a flicker, a fire

We were strangers in our own dream
Flickering faces on a dead screen
Now the silence knows my name
And I’m the only one to blame

No more echoes in the static
No more whispers through the glass
Love was never automatic
It just fades, it doesn’t last
No more shadows in the starlight
No more voices in my head
We were beautiful and tragic
But now our radio is dead

She hummed a song from a long-lost year
Played it backwards so no one could hear
I kept her heartbeat in a cassette shell
Now it’s warbling soft like a carousel

We were poems with broken rhymes
Falling forward through old times
Now the mirror won’t reflect
What my memory can’t protect

No more echoes in the static
No more whispers through the glass
Love was never automatic
It just fades, it doesn’t last
No more shadows in the starlight
No more voices in my head
We were beautiful and tragic
But now our radio is dead

I still hear her in the hallway
In that synth-sweet minor key
But she's only made of reverb
And the part of me I couldn't keep

No more echoes in the static
No more whispers through the glass
No more futures made of plastic
Just a slow collapsing past
No more shadows in the starlight
Just a pulse that won’t reset
We were beautiful and tragic
But now our radio is dead

Echoes in the Static (feat. Vin Archer)

This is my first album "Under No Illusions", an 8-track instrumental album of '80s inspired instrumental electronic music. It was entirely produced by me, so if it stinks, you have only me to blame. Streaming links are below. Thanks for listening!

Trying Again

"I don't want pretty lies, I'm tired. And you don't want pretty love, I know." 🧊💔

I wanted to try a synthwave track that makes you feel a little tightness in your chest. A lump in your throat. No AI used. Vocals aren't me.

Far From Home

Without You

A Kiss That Never Ends

Let’s run it up — follow, stream, repost.

Night Runner explodes with speed and urgency — driving basslines, rapid arpeggios, and soaring synth leads propel the chase through the neon-lit streets. As the explorers race through the city on stolen motorcycles, the night blurs around them in a rush of light and danger. The track captures the exhilaration of escape, where every turn could mean freedom… or capture.

🎵 From the Beyond the Stars album — 25 tracks of electronic/sci-fi inspired music.
🎮 Perfect for chase sequences, high-energy escapes, or cyberpunk action scenes.

VCR Nightwaves is the synth-driven alter ego of a producer on a mission to bring the 1980s back to life. From Dreamwave, Synthwave, Synthpop, Electro-Funk, and touches of New Jack Swing, he crafts music that channels the heart of the era. Neon lights, analog warmth, and big emotional hooks.

With shimmering synths, vintage drum grooves, and an ear for cinematic nostalgia, he captures the sound of a decade defined by both style and soul. VCR Nightwaves isn't just inspired by the '80s, he lives in that world sonically, building tracks that feel like the soundtrack to a film you’ve half-remembered from a dream.

He’s not rewinding the past; he’s living it forward.
