GUNSHIP has been described as a neon soaked, late night, sonic getaway drive, dripping with analog synthesizers, cinematic vocals and cyberpunk values, all exploding from the front cover of a dusty plastic VHS case which has lain forgotten since 1984.
The music aims to conjure a strong sense of story. The kind that should be written large across an eighties action cinema screen. The album narrative interweaves romance, hope, fear, technology, the threat of nuclear obliteration, and ultimately the need to celebrate life. Both bleak and dystopian at times but also progressive, uplifting and danceable.
GUNSHIP’s sound is created with vintage analogue synthesizers and other retro electronic gear available in the 1980s. Inspired by nostalgia for a bygone era, GUNSHIP use this approach to yield something fresh and new. The debut GUNSHIP album is tonally diverse - blending sweeping fluorescent synth lines with fever pitched and adrenalizing electric bass arpeggios. This musical foundation, sometimes dark and brooding, sometimes romantic, underpins emotive and cinematic vocals.
The album also features remixes from synthwave artists Miami Nights 1984, Makeup And Vanity Set, and Carpenter Brut.
