WINK, a duo representing 1980s synth-pop.

Their vocals have a pleasantly laid-back quality, and that relaxed vibe earned them a passionate following among certain listeners.

In reality, there aren’t large melodic leaps within each section.

The high parts and mid-range parts are clearly separated, so if you can use mixed voice or falsetto, you shouldn’t have trouble staying on pitch.
