Synopsis

Product Description
Adventure is 24-year old North Carolina native and Baltimore transplant, Benny Boeldt. His ultra-melodic synth compositions pull from his earliest exposure to the 8-bit soundtracks of the Sega Genesis video game catalog, but this isn't just retro video game music. Mix in the kitschy Moogy sound of Hot Butter's "Popcorn", the saturated disco-theatrics of late 70s electro-pop acts like Sparks and Yellow Magic Orchestra, and a penchant for Eastern European diminished scales, and you've come close to Adventure's accelerated, baroque sound. An advanced, dance floor friendly take on the music of early video gaming.
