THE NEW VINYL COBRA ALBUM

 

Shon-Stephan’s 2026 year-long project to reimagine 50 original songs over 50 consecutive weeks. Every track begins as a piece of the original catalog—blues, rock, Americana, and singer-songwriter storytelling—and emerges transformed through the lens of synthwave, retrowave, outrun, chillwave, darkwave, club mixes, and 80s-inspired soundscapes.

 

This isn’t a collection of covers. These are the original songs rebuilt from the ground up.

 

Each release bridges two worlds: the analog soul of guitars, stories, and lived experience, with the cinematic energy of neon skylines, arcade lights, late-night highways, Miami Vice sunsets, John Hughes emotions, and the future we imagined in the 1980s.

 

Along the way you’ll hear:

• Blues become synthwave

• Americana become outrun

• Rock become darkwave

• Ballads become cinematic retrowave

• Forgotten album tracks become entirely new experiences

 

The project explores a simple question:

 

If these songs were written in the future we dreamed about decades ago, what would they sound like?

 

The result is a soundtrack of future nostalgia—music that looks backward and forward at the same time. Stories of love, loss, redemption, adventure, loneliness, hope, small-town America, city lights, midnight drives, broken hearts, and second chances—all reframed in glowing neon.

 

Whether you’ve followed the original albums for years or you’re discovering these songs for the first time, this playlist documents the complete transformation.
