Oh No is a song by Matt Harper that is reminiscent of the synth-heavy and classic 80’s style of music. Part of the EP called “Change The World,” this song is just about as enjoyable as the other hits found in the extended play. Matt has been writing his music since the global pandemic in 2020 and has since released multiple bangers from 2021 until today. Each hit leans heavily on the electronic pop sound you can bop your head and robot dance to the beat.
This classic 80’s retro song released in 2024 is all about our world of today, talking about the negativity and conflict that people have been inflicting on each other as it affects the whole world. Despite acknowledging these things and caring about them, it will never be enough to get heard on such a vast planet. The snappy beat accompanied by the layering of multiple high and low synths contrasts the realistic vocals that talk about the consequences of our actions in the real world. In a way, this shows the brilliance of Matt Harper for making a good song that also brings a great message to all the people of the world.
Each synth riff rivals even the originals such as Depeche Mode and Soft Cell but adds a twist of modernism into the cleaner and much more vibrant sound. This song stays consistent from start to finish and delivers an incredible retro song with suave vocals that are welcome for both long-time and beginning fans of the new wave synth genre.
