Valhalla Life - Synthwave Magic [CD]

It could easily be said that veteran musician and dance music producer Amos Larkins has been involved in more projects over the years than most of his contemporaries, and has helped to define key advances in the Miami music scene with his cutting-edge style that always seems to be ahead of the curve in so many ways. His influence on the scene cannot be overstated. Back in the 1980's he almost single-handedly invented the genre known as Miami Bass and in turn influenced a whole generation of young hip-hop artists. Since that time, he has worked with artists in multiple genres, constantly expanding his knowledge of the latest trends and always manages to bring something new to the table. His latest project, Valhalla Life, Amos dives deep into the synth-wave sound, bringing his formidable musical expertise, and manages to create a new approach that expands the genre in a unique way that defies all expectations. The Miami based session vocalist Olivia M. Prieto contributes mightily to the project and proved to be the perfect foil for Amos' unique vision. Hopefully, this collaboration will lead to many more down the line.
