The 80's remix also referred to as a " Retro-remix " when remixed to different musical eras [ citation needed ] describes a 21st-century music trend of creating s remixes to contemporary pop songs —the reinterpretation of previously-released songs with s production values, by those not associated with the original recording. This trend has been associated with nostalgia for the s musical scene, and a dislike for current musical trends. One of the pioneers of this genre is Canadian producer and YouTuber Tronicbox. Thump , the music section for Vice , described this genre as a "niche"; Tronicbox wrote in late "Starting to see so many "80's Remix" popping up on the internet these days". One of the earliest attempts at an '80s remix was a remix of the Game of Thrones Theme by Russian musician Steve Duzz in Duzz's remix was later incorporated with a '80s-era VHS intro of the same series. According to The A. Club , the general premise of this musical genre involves the hypothetical question of how modern day pop stars would have sounded if they had dominated the industry in the s instead of the s; the site described the results as "surprisingly listenable" despite the contradiction of present-day lyrics and s production values. They use various images of '80s music such as saxophone solos, syncopated synthesiser beats, and a more liberal use of chord progressions than the originals.
