Today is the first day of winter! My latest single “Don’t Go Stay Home” is the perfect mood music. The song is about staying warm inside with the one you love when it’s cold outside. Click pic to listen!!
Here’s what the reviews are saying…
"This multi-instrumentalist is a master at creating great power pop gems and this is another great song by Stephen Chopek."
- Hot Lunch Music
"The synth licks are its biggest selling point, while the singing is as inviting as a host welcoming guests to a Christmas party."
- ALT77
"Tiene punch y el sintetizador hace muy bien su trabajo, los riffs en las guitarras, la voz, todo se une pieza por pieza perfectamente bien, para poder disfrutarlo las veces que quieres."
- Zone Nights
“Stephen Chopek brings contemporary synth soundscapes to an ‘80s melodic approach to create a catchy power pop offering. The centerpiece of the song is the earworm of a chorus, which Chopek tastefully leans into but without risking redundancy."
- Glide Magazine
