On this album he enlisted some help to broaden the sound of the album, but it still is a massive majority him. While firmly rooted in catchy, funky pop music, this album contains some fine experimentation in terms of electronic sounds. Some clear production as well! </p><p><a href="https://titterdom.nl/tags/music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>music</span></a> <a href="https://titterdom.nl/tags/synthpop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>synthpop</span></a> <a href="https://titterdom.nl/tags/newwave" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>newwave</span></a> <a href="https://titterdom.nl/tags/80s" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>80s</span></a> <a href="https://titterdom.nl/tags/CD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CD</span></a> <a href="https://titterdom.nl/tags/OTD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OTD</span></a></p>
