Adrian Star is a 1980's anachronism in music. His synth-pop sound is influenced heavily by genres of the '80s such as New Wave, Top 40 Pop, and R&B Dance. He uses vintage synthesizers and older analog recording equipment to achieve his signature sound. He does not use "soft synths" (software/virtual based instruments). He plays his basslines & melodies humanly on actual keyboards and uses real saxophones & guitars. No auto-tune vocal technology is used on his songs.
Adrian has been on the bill with legendary pop/new wave acts such as Berlin and Missing Persons.
Adrian Star has had 14 songs featured in films & commercials, appeared on many radio podcast shows, as well as more than a dozen directed music videos. Most recently, he has provided songs for the official soundtracks of the feature films available to watch on Amazon Prime or DVD: Stealing Sunrise, Stealing Sunrise 2: Malibu Trail, & Hello, Are You There?.
Adrian has released 3 albums to date, EMULATOR, EMULATOR II, & EMULATOR II+ which you can sample below.
