Synthwave thread

[narval]

Well, title. Lately some synthwave tracks are stuck in my head. So I'm curious, has anyone heard this kind of stuff? Let's see if whe can make a compilation of good shit in this thread







PD: Redline is peak animation.

It's a genre i've discovered the last week, I think i've many stuff to discover


I guess i'm going to be "bussy" for a while. ()



(it's aham, let me see the title, a playlist of the album "198XAD", IDK how to post correctly a YT playlist in the forum. I love Brave, aka, no ads XD)

brooo this has been a favorite genre for me for years and years now!

I got into it originally by Hotline Miami 1 and 2, both of which are highly worth checking out (and both go on 90% sales on steam) ((or if you prefer, the developers outright endorsed pirating them)). Plus a bunch of the same artists carry over to this indie game called Furi, and a lot of those tracks were fire.

So I guess I'll sort them by game:

• From Hotline Miami 1:
  • M|O|O|N - Paris
  • Scattle - Knock Knock
• Hotline Miami 2; where it gets a little more aggro/psychedelic:
  • Carpenter Brut - Roller Mobster
    • If you like Perturbator, Carpenter Brut is a must
  • Jasper Byrne - Voyager
• Furi; A bit more melodic / cinematic:
  • Carpenter Brut - You're Mine
  • Waveshaper - Wisdom of Rage
  • Waveshaper - A Monster
    • Waveshaper in general is pretty gud
• Plus, a few favorites outside of these games:
  • Perturbator - Raining Steel
  • Waveshaper - Fight Against Time
  • Lazerhawk - Overdrive

Plus, I feel compelled to also mention the other half of what's still called "synthwave", since they're some of my longest-standing favorite artists of all time. Namely my favorite artist ever is HOME, particularly their album Odyssey, and even more particularly their most famous track Resonance. There's a bunch of niche tracks of his I really adore, but he's really bad at organizing his posts. Other quick shoutouts include:

• oDDling - Ascend
• Yuutsu - Slow (idk how to type those kanji, but you can generally find it by looking up yuutsu)
• Emil Rottmayer - Open

though that would start bordering on vaporwave at a some point.

Mb for the long post, this has been a genre I've been sitting on for a long time
