Bumping for Tesla Boy for those who've never heard of them.

Tesla Boy EP
The first song on it already lets you know exactly the kind of music they're making.

They've got a full album out as well, but I haven't listened to it yet.

Great stuff.

 

[GhostRidah]

pretty good album from Nightcrawler

This is what I get for not really going to OT much lately... missed this thread!

Anyways, I was in a genre competition on an electronic music message board where we had to create a mix with a theme... the theme was "sci-fi" and everyone gave their own interpretation of it. I decided to go with a retro-neo-cyberpunk theme with a lot of neo-synthwave music. Posted about it in our electronic music thread but didn't really get any biters, maybe some people here will enjoy it more:

1) Tokyo Rose - Vice
2) Converter - Lost Years
3) Nick Force - Faded Love
4) Labtracks - Driver (Domestic Technology's Miami Vice Remix)
5) Mitch Murder feat. EeL - Galaxy Train 1989
6) Lazerhawk - Space Is The Place
7) Perturbator - Miami Disco
8) Power Glove - Motorcycle Cop
9) Kavinsky - 1986
10) Lueur Verte - Night Slasher II (Perturbator Remix)
11) Droid Bishop - Light Years
12) Bestrack - Stamina
13) Anoraak - Nightdrive With You (Grum Mix)

Loving it so far, great music to play pinball by!

our next event is Live in Helsinki now!
and we will see if we can put up a livestream here:

I wish I'd read this thread more often and known about this. Then I remembered it's impossible to get anyone to watch the kids so I could go. Oh well. It's nice to known there's some synthwave action at the neighborhood though!

 

[KaiserBecks]

Don't think this has been mentioned yet:

I really like this Russian(?) Podcast called "Outrun 80's". I'm usually not into electronic music but this is pretty good.

Subbedddd

I am listening to Protector 101 right now sooo good and so much. I will have to browse through this thread for more! I loved Nero77 videos on youtube too

Somehow missed this until now, love it. Action Jackson always puts out good stuff (his Miami System EP is also excellent).

Man, that is super nice. Kind of what I was expecting from Daft Punk's latest album, but across the whole thing rather than just being a track or two. Seems more raw (as Chromeo does so well) and laid back. Any idea when it's due to drop?

Agreed on the Daft Punk thing.

Chromeo's album is due out May 12th I believe, can't wait. The other two tracks they've put out from it are nice as well.

 

[Noisepurge]

oh and easy recommendations are all the ones i've bought on bandcamp: http://bandcamp.com/noisepurge

especially the latest Dance with the Dead:

I've been playing Come Alive all fucking day. I can't stop, the song is just soooo good.

 

[BWJinxing]

Some of my picks, most are bright synth, so not so cyberpunky.

Paradelous - Interstellar Dust
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AjzVXL2RoVE

Sally Shapiro - Lives Together (Tommy Remix)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GlVH3u7wFIc

Sferro - Autonomous Robot (Tommy Remix)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ux7IPMOEXzo

Klockhaus - Stationfall (More 90's vibe however)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVkxkDuowxw

Quantum - Speed of Darkness
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYTb1JknzhM

Thanks! Would be on Spotify, but since Rdio is readily available in Canada, and the app as well, that's where I'm putting my money currently, plenty of music I do want on there, just not as varied on this stuff

Can't stop listening to this godly track

[Extra Sauce]

This thread's title doesn't have the word "Synthwave" but that's really the most accurate and all-encompassing term for the kind of music being posted and discussed here. That being said, that Wikipedia page did not exist until months after the thread was created.

[mktrOOp]

I don't know whether this track fits exactly in this thread but I have to mention Harold Faltermeyer. He composed the soundtrack for "The Running Man" with Arnold Schwarzenegger (my favorite movie), which complements so well with the movie.

Main Title/Fight Escape

Sub-Zero

I'm happy that I discovered this thread today. I'll hear every song posted in the thread and I'll post more tracks tommorow.

synthwave and retrowave have become pretty standard terms for this stuff within a year

a little bump for the Spotify masterlist, has over 1500 tracks of Neudisco/Retrowave already:

Beyond the Black Rainbow has virtually no story but the music and visuals are an 80's enthusiast's wet dream nightmare come true.
