[FallingEdge]

Thank you all for the suggestions. Slowly working my way through it.

I thought the OP was going to post 80s style snyth-pop/electro synth cyberpunk inspired music not stuff which just sounds like generic techno of the 10s.

Like things like Polica's Amongster https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvmb8oussWs or Punching in a Dream by The Naked And Famous https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=szi1iIkhV2E essentially stuff with a bit of auto tune, disorted electronical rifts, a bit of techno and and overall sounding cyberpunkish albums from the both of them while still been pop stuff.

I really have no idea at all about this genre. So I'm just posting what I know and then going from there. Getting suggestions and ideas from GAF. Which is the point of this thread. Thanks for the links though. Most definitely will give them a listen later on tonight.

Subscribing to get in a blood dragon mood.

 

[freenudemacusers]

thread needs more actual 80s music goddamnit!

Nitzer Ebb, Warsaw Ghetto

 

[MattDoza]

Power Glove's first EP is also worth listening to.

Com Truise - Brokendate

Holy FACK. Now this is something truly good. A lot of modern takes on this genre seem to forget that you can slow the shit down and let that synth burn.

 

[Aurongel]

Chromatics

"At Your Door"

"Lady"

"Running Up That Hill"

"Back From the Grave"

Not exactly pure 80's throwback pop, but the audio cues they take from that style always make me think of the 80's.

[reptilescorpio]

Definitely. Really love Retrogenesis and Raining Steel.

Ghost Dancers Slay Together is another gem on there.

Com Truise - Brokendate

Video makes this song twice as awesome.

 

[Nemesis_]

There is no other answer right now

 

[Darkmakaimura]

Ever heard The Birthday Massacre? Their first album is especially synthpop-like.

I actually thought Outrun was disappointing. Too much filler, in my opinion.

You reckon? The album is on my daily rotation. Which tracks do you think are filler (they are probably the ones I skip every now and then )

 

[cj_iwakura]

For fear of stating the obvious, the Snatcher soundtrack is great.
One Night In Neo-Kobe


Soul Hackers has some great moody synth as well.

Airport (Reality)

Actually, maybe filler was the wrong word to use.

I just think I listened to some of the songs too many times prior to release (Nightcall, Roadgame, Testarossa Autodrive, Protovision), so by the time I got the album, I was already a bit bored of them.

I would say Grand Canyon and First Blood are my two favourites, but Blizzard, Suburbia, and Endless are a bit forgettable, in my opinion.

[freenudemacusers]

I love trans x

 

[| Praxis |]

One of my favorites is Perturbator.

Some of the best tracks (They're all good):

"Raining Steel"
"Deviance (Feat. Arcade High)"
"Technoir"
"Linnea Quigley Horror Workout"
"John Holmes VHS Nightclub"
"Ghost Dancers Slay Together"
"Miami Disco"
"End Theme"

 

[Charmicarmicat]

Any project related to the band Zombi is really good, although it's more 70's horror-inspired synth stuff, but still very good. Off the top of my head Zombi, Steve Moore, Gianni Rossi and Majeure are all projects worth checking out.

 

[Skilotonn]

My kind of thread.

Com Truise is indeed the best. Definitely listen to the album it's off of, Galactic Melt.

If you're a cool person you might recognize some of these tracks from the "More Blood, More Heart: The Making of Hobo With A Shotgun" documentary (Think they also used some of these throughout the bluray menus).

 

[FallingEdge]

I be jamming out to all of this. Perturbator is fantastic.

The whole movie's soundtrack is great, too.

Also, Hunters.

 

[NIN90]

Judge Bitch is the shit. As is Perturbator.

 

[kase23]

Id label these both under cyberpunk though at opposite ends of each others spectrum
ARPANET - Wireless Internet
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75Rb6JheGKs
Front line Assembly - Mindphaser
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWjBPIbJMzY

 

[vikki]

some more contributions to this thread. I went through my music library and found a wide variety of tracks that I think fit this genre.

DVAS
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5s4GqpqqHo

SymbolOne - I know someone already mentioned SymbolOne, but it was a Danger remix.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOKaHYXpWnM

Minitel Rose
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GwP2zjnF1Ww

Miami Horror - This track reminds me of Daft Punk - Verdis Quo
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F5tkzQ6ddaE

Steve Moore - He is half of Zombi so this doesn't count as new, but this track is awesome
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OprwqxyF758

Komytea - Gritty track from a mainly progressive house artist
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OawwtNyvpso

Alan Braxe - Feel free to look up his original work. I love these next two tracks so that's why I am posting them.

[Deleted member 47027]

Thanks for making this thread, FE - there's a sound that you want to hear, and I want to hear, and this thread is delivering. Goooooood shit.

 

[i-Lo]

Surprised that no one mentioned Noir Deco yet (some of the ones I like):

Noir Deco- Sentient Love

Noir Deco - Charged and Ready

Noir Deco - Escape With Snake Plissken

By the time Cyberpunk 2077 rolls out, I'll have a collection befitting the game.

 

[Rygar 8 Bit]

nice seeing love for danger

Subscribed. I'll post links when I'm at a computer.

 

[HelloMeow]

Definitely this:

MISTABISHI - WRITE OFF
MISTABISHI - THE HOWLING VOID WHERE YOUR SELF SHOULD BE
MISTABISHI - ASPIRATIONAL LIFESTYLE ACCESSORIES

 

[robertsan21]

Best thread in a while, thanks for introducing me to new artists.I am the night is amazing

 

[indigo-cyclops]

This is a great song (from a great film).

Tangerine Dream - Sorcerer
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQ_KXK3eNdI

This is amazing.

My problem with a lot of what's posted in here is it's revival stuff; while it's definitely great, there is something to be said about music created during the time. Pertubator is really awesome, along with the others big on Bandcamp, but I just love hearing shit from the time.

Anyone else?

 

[gabbo]

I didn't think there was such a wide selection of this stuff.
Very glad to have stumbled upon this thread.

If Zombi is too indebted to Argento/Goblin and John Carpenter, what about something like Drokk? Soundtrack for Dredd that wasn't

 

[WorriedCitizen]

Heartbreak - We Are Back

 

[Shard]

Another artist to add to the pyre are the musical stylings of I,Synthasist.

 

[TUROK]

I've been hooked on the end credits song of Oblivion for a short while now.
