Dero’s double album "1984" is packed to the brim with synth hits. "1984" is a fascinating fusion of beloved retro-synth sounds, synth-wave, and EBM with contemporary electronic elements, and even a dose of his former life as a rock and metal musician. DERO GOI, who has always been recognised as an outstanding songwriter, has honed his craft to an even sharper edge.
His musical influences display an open mind to stylistic diversity as DERO GOI names among others D.A.F., NITZER EBB, FRONT 242, THE CURE, FAITH NO MORE, EINSTÜRZENDE NEUBAUTEN, DEPECHE MODE, KRAFTWERK (…). DERO GOI has embarked on a course towards a more electronic direction than most of the songs that have previously come from him. "1984" is the testimony of an artist who is using a wide range of influences but who has even expanded his widely respected ability to write extremely catchy tunes. Whatever the listeners will make of this massive contribution to the scene, DERO GOI will never be a singer who holds back or accepts to be told to shut up. Whether you love "1984" or not, what you hear is what you get!
