A life on loan
YOU'RE RUNNING OUT OF TIME. AND YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHO YOU'RE LIVING FOR. How much of your life is actually yours? We spend our days chasing expectations, wearing masks, and pretending there's always more time. Until one day, we realize we've been living a life on loan. “A Life on Loan” by INSTANCE//1.22 is a dark, melancholic journey through identity, regret, and the terrifying realization that time doesn't come with a refund. Atmospheric synths. Deep emotions. A haunting voice. And a question that stays long after the music fades. 🎧 Turn it up. Close your eyes. Listen. Are you living your life — or just borrowing it? #ALifeOnLoan #INSTANCE122 #DarkSynthpop #Synthwave #ElectronicMusic #IndependentArtist #MelancholicMusicmore

We are still alive
A track that came into my mind after the pandemic, when different groups always claimed that all vaccinated people soon will be dead. As this continued over the couple of the last years I started to think about making a song about it. My musical inspiration comes from my youth ages in the late 80s/90s where Synthwave/Synthpop was a major part of the music I heard that time. Bands like Depeche Mode, Alphaville and Wolfsheim / Peter Heppner inspired me to dive into the field of this genre. This is a hybrid music track consisting of my lyrics, my voice and a short synth theme (created with a aerophone as MIDI instrument) put into suno to finally create the full track. After a review and feedback I got from a producer I remastered the track for a radio-ready format today and reuploaded. The Spotify link may still contain the previous longer version until reupload is distributed completely.more

A Brand New Universe
Experience a triumphant journey of digital awakening with this anthemic blend of 80s synth-pop and cinematic electronic rock. Driven by pulsing basslines, crystalline synthesizers, and soaring vocal harmonies, the track builds into a massive, wall-of-sound chorus before unleashing an expressive electric guitar solo. Perfect for fans of classic AOR and futuristic rock operas, it delivers a powerful, uplifting soundtrack for breaking the chains of the past and stepping into a brand new universe. more
