Midnight Beach Debut Single “Fantasy”

Midnight Beach is coming to our listeners from the state of Florida.  The group is sharing their debut single “Fantasy” for us.  The single has that late 1980’s – 1990’s Electronic sound that will appeal to many.  The verse really has that retro Electronic/Techno feel and when the chorus comes in it hits like a wave.  Love the energy that the chorus has and it will pick you up and get you going.  “Fantasy” is from Midnight Beach self-titled album that is available now and if they continue the fun vibe that “Fantasy” has through their whole album you will want to add it to your retro styled music library.  Here’s Midnight Beach’s “Fantasy” through SoundCloud – Richard:
