Synthpop musik af Allan Ertman

Allan Ertman har komponeret musik siden 80'erne, og i 2020 fandt musikken endelig vej til verden.

Hans mission er at skabe melodisk, interessant og enkel instrumental musik.

Genren er techno pop/synthpop med et lidt naivt og sentimentalt præg. Sangene kan få dig til at føle dig nostalgisk, men bør også fylde dig med en følelse af håb.

Det kan minde dig om tecno-musik fra 80'erne, som Yazoo, Human League, Pet Shop Boys, Depeche Mode, OMD og så videre.


Så hvad er synthpop?

Syntetiseret musik produceres af en computer. Synthesizeren blev opfundet i 1955. Den blev mere og mere populær som musikinstrument og i 1980'erne blev den brugt til at producere musik uden andre musikinstrumenter.

Synthpop er en forkortelse for synthesizer populærmusik.

Synthesizer kan producere alle mulige efterligninger af musikinstrumenter som klaverer, strengeinstrumenter, blæseinstrumenter og trommelyde. I synthpop musik er det almindeligt at bruge synthesizer som "det er sin egen lyd".

Retro eller ej?

Er Allans musik retro? Det er et godt spørgsmål. Man kan sige, at intentionen om at lave musik ved hjælp af lignende lyde som brugt i 80'ernes synthpop og technopop giver musikken en følelse af retro, men som komponist i 2022 kan man bare ikke undgå at blive påvirket af den musik, man har hørt i. tiden mellem 80'erne og nu, så jeg vil sige, nej Allans musik er ikke retro.

Synthpop music by Allan Ertman

Allan has been composing music since the 80s and at last in 2020 the music found its way to the world.

His mission is to create melodic, interesting and simple instrumental music.

The genre is techno pop/ synthpop with a bit naive and sentimental touch. The songs can make you feel nostalgic, but should also fill you with a sense of hope.

It might remind you of tecno music from the 80s, like Yazoo, Human League, Pet Shop Boys, Depeche Mode, OMD and so on.

 

So, what is synthpop?

Synthesized music is produced by a computer. The synthesizer were invented in 1955. It became more and more popular as a musical instrument and in the 1980s it were used to produce music without other musical instruments.

Synthpop is short for synthesizer popular music.

Synthesizer can produce all sorts of imitations of musical instrument like pianos, string instruments, wind instruments and drum sounds. In synthpop music it is common to use synthesizer as "it's own sound".

Retro or not?

Is Allans music retro? Thats a good question. You can says the intention of making music using similar sounds as used in the 80s synthpop and technopop gives the music a sense of retro, but as a composer in the 2022, you just can't avoid being influenced by the music you have heard in the time between the 80s and now, so I would say, no Allans music is not retro.
