Positronic

Bio

POSITRONIC means what it sounds like: Positive-Electronic and it is the creation of Michael McDannold. Michael
has been making electronic synth-pop music since 1988 and
is from the Inland Empire, Southern

California. His love for synth music started with bands like Depeche Mode, Erasure, OMD, and Pet Shop Boys.

Michael began playing and writing music in a few synth bands in High School, and through the years he’s found they usually end up fractured and broken. Primarily because many musicians gravitate towards the darker downbeat side of music – it is often a short road to see a successful act disband. Michael’s vision is one of positivity and levity, believing that music should bring joy, not sadness and depression. This is the founding approach with his solo act POSITRONIC from its inception in 2004.

The first POSITRONIC album was released in January of 2019 called “A New Day.” It’s a 10-song album about facing the challenges of life with hope for a bright future and not giving into despair.

POSITRONIC’s first singles, “Sweet Summertime” and “Higher Point Of View” received airplay on indie synth-pop radio shows internationally in the UK, Germany, Israel, France, and more. The feedback from the electronic music community has been positive and the public is loving the music.

A NEW DAY. 

The NEW LIFE album was released June 26th, 2020. It's a journey through love, despair, challenges, and victory through hope. This album contains great songs like, "Someday", "World Full of Love", & the hit song, "When You Fall Down". 

RETROSPECTIVE is the latest album which was released Nov. 12, 2021. It's a collection of Michael's songs that he has written from 1987 to 2005. These songs have morphed over time but finally, they have been revamped, re-recorded, & remastered into this beautiful collection of songs which are truly, a Retrospective. Michael sincerely hopes you enjoy listening to this album as much as he has enjoyed performing and recording it.
