I've set out to make 4 tracks that captures the essence of how I experienced 1986. This was the first year I felt the "Italo Disco" came through in more mainstream synthpop at the time and this track is the second one in this series, the first being "Greyhound" found elsewhere on my channel. This originally started as a cover of Depeche Mode "Stripped", but I decided at the end to keep the DM-type sound and go for my own melody and lyrics. https://open.spotify.com/album/0cjRxfTuaOJW18P2uc7L2u?si=X7AQiSnOTjqa-9MM4AEVig https://itunes.apple.com/mz/artist/espen-kraft/434486241 https://soundcloud.com/espenkraft https://www.facebook.com/espenkraftmusic https://twitter.com/EspenKraft http://www.espenkraft.com I use DistroKid for all my releases onto streaming services.
