SynthWave/RetroWave - 80's style music made today

I'm a fan of Lazerhawk's Redline album. The genre in general is a little too slow for me if I listen to more than a few tracks at a time, though.

Hated it then. Hate it now. Synth and fake drums drive me up a wall.

I feel a bit like this but did like some of it back in the 80's when I was as old as my sons are now. They're into it and don't get it when I put on my old man pants and tell them how dated it sounds. They look at me like I'm crazy--"Dad, that's kind of the point".

Of course, they're buying vinyl like crazy when I got rid of most of mine years ago (kept the best stuff, though!).

Here's a new one by Gunship, my new favorite, and if you like the movie Lost Boys your're really gonna love this one.

All of those links are killer.
Oliver is my favorite. They are a producing duo that hits the sweet spot for me of heavy synthy sounds at an upbeat pace and sharp pop lyrics.

Too many good songs to link, but they came out with a album last year, and has songs with Chromeo and De La Soul

I like this thread.

Yea! Digitally imported synthwave channel I prefer it's more upbeat sibling nu disco though. Digitally imported also has futuresynth pop. I couldn't get the link to play on my phone, so you might have to download the app.
