about

This surprise ambitious collaboration yielded some very interesting musical experimentations, brought to you by Archmage Band, Bruce Parsons, and Neons Gone Mad.

Vocals: Masha Solo and Craig Conley (on the Neons Gone Mad version)

Neons Gone Mad on Bandcamp: profoddfellow.bandcamp.com

This song is for a game main menu screen for a game Rob and Masha are working on by the same name, 'Modern Entropy'.

We made this song with the idea in mind that entropy has always been around, but the kind we have now is a very modern kind of condition - having to make sure the alarm wakes us up, going to work and back, having messes pile up and be cleaned up again, having limited free time and choosing what you do with it each day, choosing who you talk to or befriend, or who you date, and the dating game. However we made the song itself reflect 80's/90's feeling vaporwave disco styles.

We were joined by Bruce Parsons who composed additional synth and piano parts. Thanks for joining us, Bruce!

After Bruce joined us, in a final jam session Masha added a lead and a dub echo lead throughout the song, and later an intro when she was going to sing.

We are also joined by Craig Conley from Neons Gone Mad for the vocoder male vocals.

Neons Gone Mad also made a video for it: youtu.be/0q7x7fvAAxU

We hope you enjoy! Thanks for listening.

about

Archmage Band Australia

Rob and Masha founded Archmage Band in 2013 after they got a gift of a synthesiser from Masha’s dad. Since then, the two have been busy creating tunes that were mostly unheard until 2016 when they released The Bonfire Party - a collection of demos - and later in 2021, with their style having evolved, some finished songs. They aim to combine synth pop with chiptunes and dream pop. ... more
