Synthwave

Apparently the lemmy server waveform.social has shut down: https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/1745550

I believe this means that this community is no longer federated, and if you post here then it will only be seen on lemmy.world. Please let me know if that's not correct.

At any rate, take a look at [email protected] for a federated alternative.

I know you guys like anything with Carpenter Brut, I do too :D

I love this song for its energetic and optimistic tune. Love the band for their masterful mix of syths and electric guitars !

Dance with the Dead | Bandcamp.com

14 tracks, with several featured artists from the synthwave scene, including Carpenter Brut and Power Glove.

"I CONTROL THE LIVES AND THE BRAINS OF ALL THE INHABITANTS HERE. I KEEP THEM ALIVE AS I SEE FIT, JUST AS A SHEPHERD CONTROLS THEIR SHEEP."

Makes me want to get to one of their shows even more. 😁

New video clip from Gunship, Taste Like Venom coming in soon in the next album.

I've been enjoying ORAX. Not as synth heavy as some of my other favourites, but it has a great vibe.

Finally got round to really listening to the excellent Blood Machines soundtrack and discovered that the ending of Grand Finale has something familar layered gently in there.

The reprisal comes in at around 5 minutes. Really nice touch from Carpenter Brut! The whole thing is fire, but I especially loved this track, the title theme and Soul's Wreck.

You may have come across this song in some meme or other strange internet videos. This melancholic, retro tune, caught my ear instantly.

By listening these 2 songs in a row:

1. Day Stalker
2. Night Prowler

They are my absolute favorites of the album, and easily in my top-10 favorite tunes, all category !

Found this album recently and was pleasantly surprised! I often listen to chillwave/dreamwave as background music, but find a lot of it kinda unremarkable. This is is definitely a cut above, imo.

Full album is on bandcamp.

I would like to present you another French artist, that puts out some real' nice mix of Synth, Chiptunes and Metal. If you like Carpenter Brut this might be your jam as well! Not sure if this qualifies as Synthwave, though. If not, the mod can remove it, I won't get upset ;-)

Dance with the Dead is a band from California, whose music style tips maybe more towards rock/metal, I am personally very found of.

The tune that got me hooked to synthwave !

From the new album from GUNSHIP titled UNICORN due to release in September.
