I am the founder and main author of the international synth pop magazine Electrozombies, which was founded in 2010 as a niché music video blog for synth pop and genre-related music. Since my childhood I have been a devotee of melancholic, gloomy electronic music. Started in the late 70s with minimal electro band Kraftwerk and become a real synth pop fan through Depeche Mode's hit 'People Are People' in 1984.
With my knowledge being in the synth pop scene since the early 80s, I write and publish all about this music genre to keep the scene alive and to develop it further. Read all details here: The story behind the origin of Electrozombies.
Emmon combines cool 80s industrial with emotional depth – an electronic blue full of feeling.
Spherical synth pop from Switzerland: Blackbook's “Wait Until Midnight” combines gentleness, dynamism, and midnight magic.

Atmospheric synth pop with indie influences from Covered In Snow – my impression of ‘The Punisher’ from Sweden.
Men Without Hats surprise with ‘In Glorious Days’ – powerful, danceable and with genuine 80s charm.
