Synth Pop from Foe

At the age of thirty, a Tel-Aviv-based tech Product Manager and Entrepreneur left his job to pursue his dream of making music as an artist. In 2020, Foe was born, the bedroom pop project that takes influence from both 80s and modern synth pop artists such as Depeche Mode, Visage, MGMT and Empathy Test amongst others.

Leaving a successful career and dealing with active Crohn’s disease have been the main drivers for Foe’s musical inspiration, which centres on self esteem, chasing your potential and recognising that goals require hard work, grit and determination.

While the last two years have been a struggle for most people, especially so for Foe having overcome the end of a long term relationship, career upheaval and illness in the age of Covid, his creative vision has flourished. Making his introduction with the debut single “Save Tomorrow” in 2020, he’s followed up with a string of well-received singles.

Now he brings us his latest work with the track “Why we can’t have nice things”, linking up with singer DMZL to lay down her vocal talents on the single. Delivering a shimmering synth pop sound, Foe’s new song crafts a bouncy and infectiously catchy style.

Blending a gently driving rhythm, a piquant array of electronic instrumentation and bright memorable vocal leads, on “Why we can’t have nice things” Foe continues his rise as an artist to watch this year and beyond.
