Single Review of The Static Dive: “1986”

The Static Dive is the name of music blogger/recording artist Bob Smith’s blog and his nom de plume when he records. The single includes two tracks, first a version of “1986” with vocals, then the vocal-less “1986 (Instrumental Mix).”

The song, “1986,” is a quirky, funky journey, with an electronic beat, a variety of musical outbursts and rhythms, an occasional dancing guitar riff, one-off hints at a groove that are gone as quickly as they arrive, and lo-fi vocals.

The song is playful, fun, and something you’ll not really be able to imagine, though hopefully I’ve given you a head start with what I’ve written, so I’d recommend giving it a quick listen here at any of the websites listed on the song’s Songwhip page. Enjoy!
