JASON MYSTERIA
80's style music artist
ABOUT
Jason Mysteria is the '80s alter ego of Jason Allen (electro-pop-rock-triphop band Magnificent Lie). Jason Mysteria's synth-pop sound is influenced heavily by genres of the 80's such as New Wave, Top 40 Pop, and R&B Dance. He uses vintage synthesizers and vintage 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.
Jason has been releasing '80s styled music since 1996 and has shared the bill with legendary pop/new wave acts such as Berlin and Missing Persons and is now working on his 5th studio album coming in 2024. Most recently, he has provided songs for the official soundtracks of the feature films: Stealing Sunrise, Stealing Sunrise 2: Malibu Trail, Hello, Are You There?, and Just For A Week. Jason has also covered artists Depeche Mode, Laura Branigan, Chaka Khan, and The Comsat Angels.
Jason has also appeared on the podcast shows "Beyond Synth" hosted by Andy Last and "Synthwave Sundays" hosted by DJ Spaz.
