Not a stranger to pushing the boundaries of genres, GRAMMY® nominated & multi-platinum producer, Motif Alumni jumps out from behind the boards to take you on a journey of his own through one of his favorite eras, the 80’s on this remastered & updated version of one of his most critically acclaimed releases, “1985”.
“The 1980’s was a groundbreaking time for music, it was now coming out of the mentality that you needed a full band to make a record, now you just needed a synthesizer or a computer to program your drums, bass sounds, & even vocals” Motif expresses.
On tracks like “Without You”, also famously sampled for Larry June “Another Day Pt.2” & most recently, Jermaine Dupri/Curren$Y/2 Chainz “Off The Lot”, this state of mind is evident in his approach & he doubles down further on tracks like “Need Somebody” & “Your Love” which dive deeper into his range & show you his ability & understanding to undeniably dive in and out of any era.
“1985” is a listening experience that from start to finish doesn’t leave a door unhinged in melody or mood.
