Betamaxx is the moniker of Nick Morey, an electronic music producer whose work has become synonymous with the revival of the ‘80s synthwave and retrowave scene. Based out of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Betamaxx captures the essence of the 1980s with a modern twist, blending nostalgic synth melodies with contemporary electronic beats. His music is characterized by soaring synth leads, punchy basslines, and an overall cinematic feel that hearkens back to the era of neon lights and arcade games.

Since debuting in the early 2010s, Betamaxx has established himself as a key figure in the retrowave movement, contributing to the soundtrack of this subculture. His discography has expanded steadily with a range of albums and EPs that have resonated with fans who appreciate the retro-futuristic sound. Some of his most recent work includes tracks like "Lost by Design" and "Depiction," which showcase his ability to create expansive soundscapes that evoke the spirit of ‘80s nostalgia while maintaining a fresh and contemporary edge. His remixes, such as "Into The Stars (Betamaxx Remix)" and "Victory (Betamaxx Remix)," offer a new take on his peers' productions, further cementing his diverse capabilities as a producer and remixer. With a foot in the past and an eye to the future, Betamaxx continues to push the boundaries of the synthwave genre.
