Chromeo

Synth-pop
Synth-pop

Chromeo is a Synth-pop act. Their sound grew out of Hall & Oates, Skream, Zapp, Elly Jackson and Cassius. Those roots explain a lot about how Chromeo arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Miami Horror, Justice, Franc Moody, Miike Snow and The Presets, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Breakbot, DJ Mehdi and Haim, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 34 connections around Chromeo, reaching back through Hall & Oates and forward to Breakbot. Follow any of those threads to keep travelling the influence between bands and genres on Starverb.
