Synthwave-Retrowave # 80s Neon music thread
- Thread starter Noisepurge
- Start date
Can we do video game shoutouts here too? Katana ZERO came out last month, and its soundtrack is some crazy:
I'd post more actual retrowave, but i don't want to spoil the joy of the game.

Has anyone seen The Midnight in concert? Planning on seeing them this fall and was wondering what to expect.
I'm not familiar with the site but here it is (it's a pre-order):

Bless. Can't think of a better album to break my synthwave vinyl virginity.
Playback, Clutch and Firebird are the tracks I'm digging so far.
Yes it counts :) You can see all the comments agreeing on the big 80's synthpop sound. Great track!
I concur. I feel like any one of those three is interchangeably the standout track. The guitar solo on Firebird is my favorite moment on the album. Haunted, Afterburner, Loaded and Adult Themes are right behind those top three tracks. I haven't come around on Promises leading into Secrets yet. I don't know why. I just get motivated to skip them with the first half dozen listens behind me. I'm always in a rush to loop around from Daybreak to Sundown to start the strong front half of the album again.
Thanks.
I just finished listening, and think it's really fantastic.
It was pretty good. Can't say I like every track but the production is great and some tracks fantastic. Also found that he released Streets (Director's cut) which I like more. That one has been on repeat for a while today. It's not that much different from the original release though. But I hadn't heard that one for a while.
Edit: Also, a video / short film released for Streets.
Warning, sax part NSFW.

Having released some of my favorite releases last year with Paradise and especially Space Warp as a track, I was thriller to find out that Juno Dreams had a new release last week (how could I have missed it...).
Amethyst Gaze and Future Horizons are really great but doesn't reach the heights of his earlier releases.
Edit:
Some days browsing Spotify I just keep finding new releases I had missed. Like Turbo Knights new album Navigators that was released a couple of days ago. Very Dune inspired, at least with the titles. Now this release is damn good.

also, apparently the singer of The Midnight has several folk albums (including a new one)

it's the tour life, hauling and then playing physical instruments at the gigs now instead of just using a laptop :D
The new FM Attack album is dope! There's a nice Mecha Maiko collab, and the final three songs with Vandal Moon are very "Talking Heads" ("Mixed Emotions" is my personal favorite.)
I'm excited to see FM-84 again next week... but April was supposed to be a new album, and it's almost July. Dammit. :(
that FM Attack album is indeed pretty good stuff Channel5News
Listening to Wayfloe this morning (Neon West album). Scarlet Speedster is such a great track

Great release here from Lost Nights, the album 'Rewind'.
JJ Mist released her first synthpoppy album last week, and the opening track is easily the best, L.D.L.A. (Long Distance Love Afffair):
