If you thought Kung Fury could not be beaten (or at least matched) in outrun visuals, you need to watch this ad for an Ibizan club (NSFW):

A new synth challenger appeared. His name: Morgan Willis.
Okay, he's appearently already been at it since mid-2015, but I didn't find him until now and I don't see him mentioned in this topic either, which is a shame. Dude's good.

Starts out slow and kinda weak, but don't turn away, it gets really catchy very fast.
https://soundcloud.com/morgan-willis-original/morgan-willis-star-glitter
This is just an all around catchy tune.
https://soundcloud.com/morgan-willis-original/morgan-willis-flashlight
A nice and slow song.
And of course there's more, just take a look for yourself.

The best thing I heard all year (from 2015) is definitely Wilderness. It's a tad too big, but the good stuff is amazing.
This is a great community btw.

Thanks. Gonna check.
That sound refreshing and very awesome.
I scan this thread from time to time and am constantly surprised by the fantastic music suggested by you all. I've been so into this genre lately that I made a little motion graphics animation inspired by 80s cyberpunk visuals and music. Thought you guys might enjoy this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Km1mX4EfV90

Loving this so far.
I often find vocals can make or break Synthwave tracks, which is why Gunship's album was so interesting.Dana Jean Pheonix is a great vocalist within the genre, I really like her track.
Listening to Set Me Free right now, the track's got a real cheeky bassline.
Ey mate. No mention of the lecassette track? I'll have you know, Adam Mcnab is the best in the business.

Cut a clip from it a while back for my thirsty, drinky thread (WebM embedder needed for context).
Nice cover. Can't really get into many of these releases though, they all start sounding the same tbh.

Jordan F is out on the NewRetroWave channel.
Makeup and Vanity Set - Wilderness
I've been listening to this and it's so good. I like the more ambient tracks.
Oh shit, didn't know it was out so soon. Can't wait!!
Also, don't think this was posted yet:

Same, great album.
It's a nice ntidote to a lot of other retro wave albums these days where every track has to be super up tempo and sound like chase music. Getting kinda burnt out on those tbh.

I'm also hearing some crazy fucking shit about this mockup posted by Carpenter a few months ago...
...being translated into an actual, proper game.
Hold me, Synth-GAF.
I haven't seen Gremlins in 25 years or so and I had totally forgotten how much I love the theme. This is making me grin uncontrollably like a damn fool at work, please include a happiness trigger warning next time.

New Le Matos album is AMAZE EEEENG. Mind blown.
Chronicles Of The Wasteland / Turbo Kid Original Motion Picture Soundtrack

That is a damn good album.
Been listening to it for the past 2 hours or so. Made me get to know other stuff by Le Matos, and I recommend the Join Us full album.

The Carpenter Brut trilogy is getting another limited vinyl release. Limited to 500 copies. Pre Order is going live soon apparently.
The Neuropa Facebook page will announce the date for the pre order

Yeah, do yourself a favor and watch Turbo KId, it's on Amazon Video and a few other streaming services, like PSN and Xbox Live video services.
If I miss it this time I'm going to cry.

Yeah I saw it and it's fantastic. The director(s) really did a great job, and it had that classic 80's feel. The battle scenes at the end were hilarious. Hammer Nunchucks are a thing, and it's beautiful.
Not sure if this is an official poster but it's sweet:

Vhs Glitch just posted on Facebook that only 50 copies of Land With No Future are left on vinyl.
Have grabbed myself one as the album is fantastic.
Juno Records is the place to go to get one before they sell out

Ah ben tabarnac Yves Corbeil lol
Dude is a local celebrity in Quebec's francophone community but apparently he was recast with Michael Ironside.
Pauvre Yves... au moins il lui reste Fais-Moi Un Dessin.

Nice thread. Just stumbled upon it looking for Perturbator stuff. Grabbed 3 of his albums a few weeks ago, love the cases for them things. Also grabbed that Turbo Kid soundtrack, only one listen through but it sounded sick.
This is honestly my favorite style of music, it's just so good. Sometimes it gives me evil thoughts though....haha
I'll definitely be checkin some of this thread out sometime. I mainly listen to Perturbator, Carptender Brut, Mega Drive, and now that Turbo Kid sountrack hopefully. Always on the hunt for new music.

I notice that for a lot of artists on Bandcamp they're discounting entire discographies by varying amounts. Have any of you come across really great deals for this?
Some of them could seem like a minor sale to get everything, from like 15% off. But other times I've seen upwards of 80% off to get everything.

Just bought Out of Body from Dance with the Dead last night...what a corker of an album. One of the best synth albums I have ever listened to, easily. Sunset is an absolute stunner. I was already a fan of these guys but this is my favourite of their works, definitely. Still needs to get Near Dark yet though.
And yes various labels are doing 80% off, guessing for January sales.
