Synth-Powered Nostalgia: Autogramm's Vibrant Anthem 'Music That Humans Can Play'

Updated: Dec 5, 2023

Hey there, Marie Kiil vibes coming in hot! Autogramm's "Music That Humans Can Play" is a rad fusion of synth-powered nostalgia, channeling the '80s while grooving to a modern beat. Picture power-pop perfection served with a side of positivity.

From the get-go, this album doesn't just hit; it pulsates with energy. "Born Losers" kicks things off, an electronic-infused invitation to a world where alternative pop-rock meets '80s movie soundtracks—think Breakfast Club vibes. It's a feel-good rollercoaster, a sweet mix of self-deprecating lyrics and infectious tunes.



Autogramm isn't just throwing it back to the '80s; they're weaving influences from earlier rock eras. "Love Is For Fools" taps into anthemic '60s and '70s rock, while "Plastic Punx" mashes up '80s synth with a punk edge. Sure, there are cheesy moments, like the familiar pop synths in "Why Do We Dance," but those catchy rhythms? They're irresistible.

But hold tight—this album isn't just synth-driven nostalgia. Autogramm's lineup revamp brought in Lars Von Seattle, adding spice and a fresh dynamic. Tracks like "WannaBe" and "Hey Allie" showcase this new vibe, adding depth and soul to the synth-soaked party.

Each track is a journey, from mid-tempo anthems to heartache and optimism. Autogramm crafts a vivid tapestry of human experiences, a guidebook disguised as an album. And hey, these tunes deserve a live audience—let's hope they hit the road soon.

"Music That Humans Can Play" is a vibrant anthem, a synthesis of past and present that'll get your windows rattling and your spirits soaring. Autogramm's blend of sunny harmonies, infectious melodies, and pure freedom is a musical ray of sunshine for your soul.
