Leading the 80’s synth pop supercharge in the UK, Deco are back with their nostalgic, glimmer-drenched single ‘Brakes On’.
Drawing from their biggest influences like Wham! And Duran Duran, you can hear the pop era pouring from this track.
Simply, Deco write and perform the music they love. ‘Brakes On’ also well takes on a new-wave approach similar to mainstream icons Dua Lipa and The Weeknd.
Contrary to the title – Deco aren’t holding back. ‘Brakes On’ poses the infamous question; hold back from a relationship? Or carry the silver slipping momentum on? The brakes are on to give time to decide.
Speaking about the single, frontman Max Kendall said: “The first verse sees us enjoying a casual fling, until the chorus storms in like the fear of commitment itself.
“This is one of our favourite tracks to date actually, and in some ways it feels like a coming of age song.
“We’ve always wanted to write the music we love and grew up listening to, and that’s always been the bottom line.
“In ‘Brakes On’ you’ll find everything from Madonna to George Michael, and Friendly Fire to Metronomy – it’s a real celebration of everything we’re about.”
This single, is Deco’s first release since their funky and bopping EP ‘Real Life’ dropped in May as they re-light the fire to synth pop.
Deco have enjoyed big support slots with the likes of Jess Glynne and Alfie Templeman, and have just been announced to play 110 Above Festival in Leicestershire next year.
