"This song is all about how much fun we had growing up in a
simpler era and living in the moment." says Larry Peach. "I’m
excited to share it and see how it connects with people”.
The intended market is Gen Xers who spent countless hours playing arcade
games in the 1980s, a demographic attracted to nostalgia and escapism. “I also
hope the song will resonate with younger audiences who enjoy playing any video
games or hip-hop music.”

During the fall of 2022, I will be launching Peach on a beach - a new music project that began during the pandemic.
I invite you to join me on a musical journey, where for starters, I will be exploring a world of 80s and 90s nostalgia.
Now in my early 50s, the stability of my career and the
soul-searching journey of the pandemic created the ideal opportunity to
purchase a synthesizer/drum machine and DAW and get serious about making
electronic music.
Inspired and
influenced by 80s new wave and hip hop, 90s dance and downtempo, I have
created 15 original demos since dabbling with making original music over the last year.
In May 2022, I recorded my debut single "Beeping and Bleeping", mastered in a local studio by industry
professional Paul Morris ofThe Music Box.
"Beeping and Bleeping" is a hip hop track about my experience as a young teen partaking in the first generation of kids who
enjoyed playing stand-alone video games in arcades.
The lyrics recall the
iconic early 1980s video games, and the nostalgic vibe of the song naturally
lends itself in making a captivating video.
The single and video will be released in late September. Below is a little teaser:
