I always keep an eye out for the artists I follow because sometimes their online interactions lead me to discover new music. Recently, thanks to Bentley Robles and Zee Machine, I stumbled upon Souvenir, an up-and-coming synth-pop artist. Little did they know their posts and interactions helped me discover Souvenir’s music and then I became enthralled. Souvenir, whose real name is Michael Fenuccio, is a Brooklyn-based artist who has been making waves in the music industry since releasing their debut EP, “Human Nature,” in 2022. Their brand of 80s-stylized synth-pop is gaining attention and helping them to stand out amongst the crowd.
The latest Souvenir release is called “Soft Place to Land” and it’s a really catchy track. The title itself is kind of fruity, but it really sums up Souvenir’s music well. He writes authentically about heartbreak and modern queer experiences but also reflects back on his youth. Despite the heavy themes, “Soft Place to Land” is a really fun song with an upbeat groove. It’s all about trying to get someone to notice you and take a chance on you. Definitely worth a listen!
Souvenir strives to incorporate the sounds he was raised on while at the same time keep up with the latest pop trends. It’s important to him that his music effortlessly references his roots, while also showcasing millennial/Gen Z sensibilities. Balancing the old and the new is key to creating a unique, authentic sound that resonates with listeners.
Souvenir is a singer-songwriter and artist whose music is an absolute treat for the ears! His sound is a fusion of euphoric electro-synth pop and catchy melodies that make you want to dance all night long. His style is unique, and he writes insanely catchy hooks that stick in your head for days. I guarantee that his dance floor destroyers and euphoric stompers will have you grooving in no time!
