How to do 80s vocals | arrange - record - mix

After many requests I've made a video on how I arrange, record and mix my vocals, 80 style.
80s vocals were often lush, large and reverb drenched and I love that sound.
To accomplish that I use a large variety of plugins and hardware effects.
I also sing and record each part, even if it's several unison voices. By doing so (instead of copying) you get a much more lush result because of the natural chorusing.

Growing up I listened to so much synth-pop and it's only natural that my own music takes inspiration from many of the acts I loved back then. I still love them and listen to them!

Howard Jones, Depeche Mode, Pet Shop Boys, New Order, Erasure, Thompson Twins, Tears for Fears, The Human League, Propaganda. FGTH, Ultravox, OMD, Eurythmics, Duran Duran, Giorgio Moroder, Jean Michel Jarre, Jan Hammer, Alphaville, A-ha as well as loads of artists doing what is now called Italo Disco. And many more great acts like Nik Kershaw, Spandau Ballet, Wham, Dire Straits ++
