Ugh why Spotify. Where's the Bandcamp uploads at >_>
Is Dance with the Dead already working on a new album or is this just a one-off? They released a new album really recently.
Thanks for posting this! I've been obsessed with the last DEADLIFE album. Glad to see he's put another one out already!
Everything I've heard from them is good. Really looking forward to their album.
The new Com Truise album is up for pre-order on vinyl if you're in to that sort of thing. I grabbed the sky blue version.

Yessssss. I only have Galactic Melt on vinyl, need to listen to this!
8 track album from Michael Oakley. Should be a good release.
Also coming very soon...
edit.. what the hell, I missed a release from Ultraboss late last year!
This "b-sides" ep is great!

I found something amazing, forgotten.
80s guitar, slammin sax solo, disco strings, groovin slap bass, this song has everything i want
"From a cassette sent to radio stations, this is the pop instrumental version of the HBO Main Theme from 1983. Composed and performed by Ferdinand Jay Smith."

This song absolutely rules. I ordered the vinyl that comes out tomorrow. It's the newest release from numero that features songs like this and the vinyl looks like an old nintendo cartridge with the sleeve
Wow I love this thread! Maybe they've been posted already, but here are some of my favorite songs:
Futurecop - 1988 girls
Lifelike - Getting high (Pyramid mix)
FM84 - Delorean

So I know this isn't exactly a pure "synthwave" artist but
Gesaffelstein released his first album in six years the other weekend and... I kinda feel like he's been listening to a whole lot of Daft Punk, Power Glove and Kavinsky in his downtime. This stuff is a pretty far cry from his hyperaggressive industrial techno. It's synthwave as fuck.
There's even a track with Electric Youth on this thing.

I can't stop listening to this album. It's really amazing.
Carly Rae Jepsen is a bop-churning machine.
A bit more early 90's than mid 80's, but that's ok.

I just splurged on the Gunship varsity jacket.
No regrets.

Nice. Report back with your impressions! Nina also has her own varsity jacket available:

Has anyone seen The Midnight yet? Thinking about making the trek in April to see them when they hit near me.
Definitely worth the trip. One of the best shows I've ever been to.
Gets my recommendation. Saw them October 5th last year and it was a blast.

Love it. I've been browsing their store a few times, tempted by things. I'm sure I'll cave on something eventually.
Quixotic, possibly the best European synthwave producer outside of France, has finally dropped his album.

Seen them twice, including their first every live show. Believe me, it's worth the trek.
If the show is one of the few shows featuring Nikki Flores, then you MUST go. She only makes the shows even better.
It's not bad at all, but not really my cup of tea. Kind of boring. :) What I listened most to yesterday of the new stuff was the track Enigma from PYLOT's new EP Solai. It's fantastic.
But the best release yesterday was...
Awesome short / video for Freak night.

Anyone got any good horror/slasher style synthwave album? I've listened to a couple of mixes on Youtube and am looking for some artists.
Cheers: Dance with the Dead is coming to Indianapolis!
Jeers: The show is on Mother's Day...and I'm not ditching the mother of my two boys to see this band. :(

Bring them to the show. If the kids are not too young to see live music, there isn't really anything about their sound or visuals that would be inappropriate for children (based on their last tour).
They are 3 and 1. Show starts at 8 PM, right when bedtime is ending. But good idea!

First: this image is just so perfect!
Second: what an amazing fucking album. Quixotic is at the top of my synthwave preferences alongside FM84, The Midnight, Droid Bishop, Lazerhawk, Vector Hold and Dynatron.
The Quixotle album is pretty good. Hopefully it will find its way to Spotify. Not that hopeful though as his old stuff isn't there.
Other than that, this one dropped yesterday out of the blue (for me). While I have awaited his new album I never tried to keep track of a release date.

Anyone near Louisville? We have 2 tickets for The Midnight tomorrow and unfortunately can't make it. Willing to sell for $20 for both.
