Hello everyone,

It feels absolutely surreal to finally say this, but the wait is over. Today, I am incredibly proud to announce the release of our brand-new 12-track album, Heartbreak Boulevard, officially out now under Nova Imperia Dream Music Group.

Since the very inception of the Neon Heartbeat project, the vision has always been to capture that pure, unfiltered magic of the 1980s—the driving analog synthesizers, the soaring melodies, and that classic Euro-Disco energy. If you've been following this journey, you already know how deep my love runs for that era and the legendary soundscapes of acts like Modern Talking. Heartbreak Boulevard isn't just an album; it's a dedicated love letter to that golden age of music.

This record is built on a foundation of beautiful contrasts. It is crafted entirely as a male/female duet, allowing the vocals to weave a rich, dramatic story across all twelve tracks. We wanted to capture the high-octane thrill of midnight drives and undercover missions in tracks like "Tokyo By Night" and "Secret Operation." But a true 80s album needs a soul, which is why we leaned heavily into lush, reverb-drenched melancholy for the mid-tempo title track, "Heartbreak Boulevard," and the atmospheric "Shadows in the Rain."

From the explosive, driving opening chords of "Echoes in the Dark" to the cinematic, sweeping farewell of "Endless Horizon," every single beat, Moog bassline, and stacked harmony was meticulously put together. I wanted this album to feel like a pristine, long-lost cassette tape that you just discovered in the glovebox of a vintage car—nostalgic, bittersweet, and fiercely energetic all at once.

Building this universe from the ground up and bringing it to life through the NIDMG label has been an immense labor of love. I poured everything into making sure the production feels expansive, radio-ready, and true to the classic synth-pop roots.

Heartbreak Boulevard is now streaming on all our official platforms and the artist YouTube channel. Grab your best headphones, hit play, and let the supersaws transport you to another time.

Thank you for all the incredible support, the streams, and for keeping the spirit of the 80s alive with me. See you on the boulevard.

Stay nostalgic,

Florin Gâtlan
