.
Nagamag:
What are the genres that describe better your music style?
Ryan Flynn:
The genres that better describe the music style would be Synth Pop, Indie Pop, and Indie Electronic.
Nagamag:
Few words about your musical background and career?
Ryan Flynn:
Originally begun as an experimental side project while in film school, ryan flynn has since evolved into a perpetual orb-praising space pop venture. It was in Rochester, NY that ryan flynn established his signature funky synth pop sound, solidified by the release of an eponymous EP in 2019 with widespread praise from the local community.

Currently, ryan flynn is focusing on writing and releasing new tunes such as "Seems Like Yesterday," "Pressure," and "Outside" alongside creating tasteful visuals to accompany the releases.
Nagamag:
Do you remember your first connection of love to music that was the right impact to be a music artist now?
Ryan Flynn:
My first connection to music was certainly through my parents love for music. I was consistently surrounded by great music and was fortunate to have a piano in our home. No one else could play, but I'm pretty sure it was just there when we bought our house on Long Island. I would fool around and eventually grew to love the instrument! Once high school hit, I found myself writing and performing in a metal band with some great friends. I'd say with all of those things coming together, this was my pathway into music.
Nagamag:
Do you have any plans to follow the release of the latest single, "Outside?"
Ryan Flynn:
Yes! We have a music video for "Outside" coming out December 16th. For the music video, I've combined and edited the works of two amazing artists together; Micah Buzan, who does the beautiful animation, and Taryn Elliot, who does the amazing landscape filmography. The combination of the two really vibes with the the track and I can't wait for people to connect the visuals with the track!
Nagamag:
Most artists have a favorite song from a different music genre than the one they are producing music for... Which is yours?
Ryan Flynn:
Steely Dan "Hey Nineteen"

Do you remember your first connection of love to music that was the right impact to be a music artist now?

Lyrics of Buskman – Play With My Heart
I’ve been Sitting by the fire for a mighty long time
waiting for somebody like you to come around.
Been around the world I’ve seen a lot of girls,
tried a lot of things that I can tell
But you are special I wanna settle down
have a lot of kids, and a soccer mom
But you are a player just like me
a perfect match with a heart of steel
Rock’n’roll Bitch is what I see
Rock’n’roll Bitch is what I see
Rock’n’roll Bitch is what I see
Rock’n’roll Bitch is what I see
Play with my heart Play with my heart
Come on baby start me up and play with my heart
Play with my heart Play with my heart
Come on baby start me up and play with my heart
She´s a free agent with sex on her mind
You a killer bee and it´s killing me
When you done your dumping me
How can I prevent you from dumping me
How can I prevent you from dumping me
I’ve been Sitting by the fire for a mighty long time
waiting for somebody like you to come around
Been around the world I’ve seen a lot of boys,
tried a lot of things that I can tell
But you are special I wanna settle down
have a lot of kids, and a handyman
But you are a player just like me
a perfect match with a heart of steel
A naughty Fuckboy is what I see
A naughty Fuckboy is what I see
A naughty Fuckboy is what I see
A naughty Fuckboy is what I see
Play with my heart play with my heart
Come on baby start me up and play with my heart
Play with my heart play with my heart
Come on baby start me up and play with my heart
She´s a free agent with sex on her mind
You a killer bee and it´s killing me
When you done your dumping me
How can I prevent you from dumping me
How can I prevent you from dumping me
Come on baby tell me what you want
Come on baby tell me what you need
Come on baby come on baby
Come on baby tell me what you really want
Come on baby tell me what you really need
Come on baby tell me what you really want
I want you oh yes I do
Hey hey hey …
She is Hard to get impossible to hold
slippery when wet is part of the show
He’s a toxic guy with a unfaithful mind,
browsing for the next kill is part of the game
She is a maneater with a devils touch
a hard black angel belongs to no one.
He´s A womanizer a top love dog
a Pleasure seeker and a champion of cheat
Too many lovers, not enough love
I´ll love you long time, honey then I am gone
Why don’t you stay, stay Why don’t you stay, stay. Why don’t you stay
A naughty Fuckboy is what I see
Rock’n’roll Bitch is what I see
A naughty Fuckboy is what I see
Rock’n’roll Bitch is what I see
Play with my heart play with my heart
Come on baby start me up and play with my heart
Play with my heart play with my heart
Come on baby start me up and play with my heart
Come on baby start me up and play with my heart
Come on baby start me up and play with my heart

The most used instruments in Blogwave Music
In Blogwave music, synthesizers are the most common and important instrument used. Synthesizers are electronic instruments that generate sounds by creating and modifying waveforms. They can produce a wide range of sounds, including melodies, chords, basslines, and effects, and are often used to create the signature sound of Blogwave music.
Other common instruments used in Blogwave music include drum machines, samplers, and sequencers. Drum machines are electronic instruments that produce drum and percussion sounds, while samplers allow users to record and play back samples of sounds, such as drum hits or individual notes from a synthesizer. Sequencers are used to program and arrange musical patterns and can be used to create complex, layered compositions.
Guitars, basses, and other traditional instruments are also sometimes used in Blogwave music, often in conjunction with synthesizers and other electronic instruments. In some cases, these instruments may be played live, while in others they may be processed through electronic effects or played using software instruments.
Vocals: Vocals can be used in Blogwave music, but they are not always present. Some Blogwave tracks are purely instrumental, while others feature vocals as a prominent element.
In Blogwave music, vocals are often treated as just another sound source, similar to a synthesizer or drum machine. They may be processed through electronic effects to give them a particular sound or texture, or they may be used in combination with other electronic instruments to create a more layered, complex sound.
Many Blogwave tracks feature vocals that are sung or spoken in a style that is reminiscent of 1980s pop and new wave music. These vocals may be treated with effects such as reverb, delay, or vocoding to give them a retro or futuristic feel.
Overall, the use of vocals in Blogwave music is a matter of personal preference for the artist or producer creating the track. Some Blogwave tracks are purely instrumental, while others feature vocals as a key element of the sound.
Overall, the most important instrument in Blogwave music is the synthesizer, which is used to create the majority of the sounds heard in this genre. Other electronic instruments, such as drum machines and samplers, are also commonly used to shape and augment the sounds produced by synthesizers.
