Thank you for listening!

Nice energy, vocals reminded me of The Dammed.

In fact the vocals are nice and clear (not that big into modern vocals, can't workout what most people are trying to sing about with all the silly scales they do)...

Nice mix, great sound design, yeah, nice one.

I don't know what future pop means. But to me this track sounded like a mix of industrial and Depeche Mode. Perhaps that's what future pop sounds like?
Really nice track, I liked it.

Very good track. It's my cup of tea. The the vocals are really clean. I'd like to learn your technique / process for recording them directly into reason. I've never been able to get them that clean.

Hi there. The term "Future Pop" was created by Ronan Harris of VNV Nation to describe the music that he & Stephan Groth from Apoptygma Berzerk were doing in the late 1990s.

Besides the two bands I just mentioned, also check out the bands Covenant, Assemblage 23. These four bands are the tops in the future pop genre. There are links to other bands working the genre in the wikipedia link.

I get vibes from Covenant, Apoptygma and VNV nation; again very strong song; vocals like David Gahan.

Thanks a lot! Quiloc Lim has summed up what futurepop is. The band Covenant is from Sweden just like yourself.

Thank for listening! Is futurepop/ebm/industrial the genres you work in? PM me.

Thanks again Jappe!

I think I'm losing my mind, I swore I commented on this. Tapatalk doesn't like me.

This cool, it brings me back. The vocal reminds me a bit of A Split Second and the music Parade Ground. I never heard the term Futurepop back in the day, but I guess it's a close cousin to EBM (we just called it industrial).

Very cool stuff.

Thanks a lot! Genre names are always so tiring and get even more so as time goes by. I mean there is a certain logic behind it I guess but still annoying. Futurepop started out as ebm, but as it got a little more melodic and using trancy sounds it got its own genre name. In a similar nod ebm used to be industrial but got it's own genre name when it became super synth heavy vs acoustic. Think Front 242 vs Ministry. It's particularly annoying for many artists, including myself, that might have a wider range of genres incorporated into any given project (album etc) heck even down to a song. I still just call my music darkwave if I have to call it something. That sucks too lol. When I last spoke with Ronan (vnv) he just wants us all to bucket it as alternative electronic.

This sounds really very good. I agree the vocals are quite strong. Sumusik perfectly described my own impression about what "Futurepop" is. To me it always sounds like EBM with the sixteenth-note baselines replaced with trancy lines.

EBM itself (I'm thinking the first popular artists such as Front 242 and Nitzer Ebb) are much more "accessible" to the average listener than a lot of late 80s/early 90s industrial (I'm thinking Skinny Puppy and the "art industrial" bands mostly) but that time period virtually every industrial band had their own take on the style (for example, think of Die Warzau mixing funk into industrial).

Whatever you call it, I really like this song.

Very well done, well produced. Vocals fit well. But "Future Pop". This is 1985 would fit right into the electronic pop scene of the 80's. There is nothing wrong with that, I am just wondering why you would label it future? Surely you know this is right out of the 80's? Great job though.

Thanl you for this! i like it. i think i´m in the 80*

great great great!

perhaps i can make one remix*

Thanks so much! Not for nothing, but I dig your stuff as well!

Thanks a lot for the kind words! Futurepop is just genre name more than a descriptor. If you scroll up there is a little bit of discussion about it. Quiloc Lim had a pretty concise post with link as to what futurepop is. But I totally get your question... there's nothing futuristic about it. I guess in the same vain as say progressive rock. Born in the 70s surely it was progressive, but bands making progressive rock now is still called progressive even though the name might not dictate as much. I just simply put down a genre that I felt it more closely resembled. IMO it's all just alternative electronic to me. Genre names have just gotten so splintered over the years, but for good reason I suppose. Thanks again for listening.
