This isn't just a mix, it's an experience. We're gonna have no genre that's gonna stay for too long, and no sound is gonna overstay its welcome. Let's get into it right now with a brand new remix to start the show from Matt One. This is from 1988. This is It's All Right by the Pet Shop Boys, only on Synth Pop Symphony.

You just heard Don't You Want Me, Mirror Man, the Lebanon, and more synpop classics from one of the genre's most iconic fans. Now let's head into something fresh. I had the pleasure of meeting this next artist just last week, and it turns out he lives only about 20 miles from me right here in Los Angeles. We featured two of his tracks in last week's Reynolds Rick, and this week he's back for the standard release from October 2024. The artist is Jeffrey Mix, and this time he's teamed up with a fellow disco legend Hall Parker for a Powerhouse Collaboration. This is Lost in the Vlog right here on Synth Bob Symphony.

New music on Synth Cop Symphony.

SPEAKER_00

Brand new music from Velvet Allure. This is Coral, the neuromancer remix. Brand new right here on Synth Cop Symphony. And this remix in particular is more than just a club banger, according to the band, it's a descent into cinematic tension, sweat and shadows, and honestly, I think it delivers. We also turned up the energy with a brand new remix of Hold Back the Rain by Duran Duran. This one was reimagined by Matt One. It's an absolute knockout. We kicked off that set with Jeffrey Mix and Paul Parker with Lost in the Fog, a powerful collaboration that's quickly becoming one of my favorites. And next up, I'm doing something I've never done before on the show. It's time for a 90s pop megamix, a full-on throwback set packed with high-energy chart hoppers from the decade that defined a generation. How about LaBouche, Alice DJ, Eiffel 65, Hathaway, Corona, Right Set Fred, and more? Let's go. This is the 90s pop megamix only on synthpop symphony. And don't forget, we've got the Matt Williams Master Mix coming up in the second hour.
