Jason Herrboldt, the genius behind Perfect Female Type, totally nails it with his synthwave designs, bringing the 80s right back into our lives. His latest double-single, “Romancing the Stone” and “The Jewel of the Nile,” named after those epic 80s adventure flicks with Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner, screams nostalgia.

“Romancing the Stone” could easily be the theme for an 80s cop show, bursting with juicy analog synths, wild Latin percussion, and an electric guitar solo that takes you straight to MTV’s golden days.

Herrboldt’s “Romancing the Stone” and “The Jewel of the Nile” let you dive into those lush, cinematic 80s vibes, proving that the past can totally rock the future.
