With Very Classic Emo Bands, Swedish producer and songwriter Anton Engdahl presents the first release of his new solo project, built on years of working with modular synthesis. The track moves through evolving textures and shifting rhythmic layers, constructing an intricate web of syncopation before settling into a rich harmonic focus.
Abstract sonic elements shape the early flow, giving way to a warm string synth that introduces a driving chord progression. The composition gradually shifts from its almost classical beginnings into a more electronic space, increasing in intensity as it progresses.
Having spent years producing pop music for others, Engdahl’s solo work offers an unfiltered creative expression, drawing influence from Tangerine Dream, Aphex Twin, Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith, Blanck Mass, and Steve Reich. By placing modular synthesis at the core of his sound, he crafts immersive, evolving compositions where rhythm, harmony, and texture intertwine. Very Classic Emo Bands marks the start of a project unrestricted by genre, with Engdahl’s modular approach guiding the way forward.
