This edition of Synth Pop BOPS shines neon-bright and full of feeling. From Nieri’s euphoric rebellion to MrGeorge’s heartfelt anthem and Matthew Joseph’s radiant sincerity, these three artists prove how modern synth pop can still stir something timeless inside us.
Nieri – Fun!
Nieri turns rebellion into rhythm, blending desire, freedom, and movement into pure electricity
Fun! feels like a high-speed chase through city lights. The production is tight and alive, fusing glossy synths with a bold pulse that refuses to stay still. Nieri’s vocals glide between vulnerability and confidence, creating a sound that’s both club-ready and emotionally charged. The track captures the thrill of queer youth and the bittersweet edge of growing up too fast, but instead of nostalgia, it gives us liberation. Each chorus bursts open like confetti in motion, fearless and defiant. It’s the sound of someone breaking curfew, dancing anyway, and finding themselves in the noise. Sharp, melodic, and deeply human, Fun! is the perfect name for a song that makes freedom feel contagious.
MrGeorge – Light in Your Eyes
MrGeorge turns vulnerability into radiance, crafting a song that burns with honesty and heart
Light in Your Eyes is a sweeping, cinematic pop moment that feels built to last. From its first notes, it’s clear this is music that reaches for connection rather than perfection. The arrangement is rich with driving beats and bright melodies, balancing emotion and energy with precision. MrGeorge’s voice carries the song’s message of openness and hope with sincerity, cutting through the atmosphere like light through mist. It’s both tender and empowering, inviting listeners to see themselves reflected in its warmth. There’s a timelessness to it, something classic in the structure, something human in its pulse. It’s a song about truth and rediscovery, delivered with a conviction that makes it impossible not to feel.
Matthew Joseph – Psychic
Matthew Joseph channels loss and light into a shimmering reminder of self-belief
Psychic is equal parts vulnerability and empowerment. The track moves with smooth, modern production and a touch of early 2000s nostalgia, recalling the emotional directness of The Weeknd’s pop but with a distinctly British sincerity. Matthew’s vocals are bright and full of heart, carrying lyrics about faith, energy, and finding clarity through chaos. Beneath the sleek production is a story of loss and love, written in memory of his mother and directed toward anyone who’s learning to trust themselves again. It’s personal but universal, grounded in grief yet glowing with optimism. Psychic captures what makes Matthew Joseph stand out: heartfelt storytelling wrapped in irresistible pop shine.
