Drive/Kazinsky just brought the memories flooding back

Exactly this. 2011 rolled around, Kavinsky got big from being in Drive and the dogs of war were let slip.

Carpenter Brut is also super loving awesome live. I flew to Vancouver this April specifically to see the band.

It was worth every penny.

And yes to Gunship, Laserhawk, Perturbator. They're all really fun and the videos tend to be either awesome retro future weirdness or schlocky horror and either way it's badass.

The Knight Rider theme has been my ringtone for many years now. It sounds lame when I tell someone, but it puts a smile on lots of faces when strangers hear it.

The song and Gunship rule, but the original video they took excerpts from is better.

Yes.
I suppose we could be gushing about synthwave in the Synthwave Thread instead, but gently caress it

I maintain that the best synthwave album to date is still Near Dark by Dance with the Dead.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f25R9Gl6FWc

EDIT: I mean gently caress, it's synthwave with :krad: guitar riffs and solos added, how could anyone not love this poo poo

A man whose blood
Is very snow-broth;
One who never feels
The wanton stings and
Motions of the sense



To bridge the gap a little, Gost made a bunch of synthwave and also started making metal influenced electronic music like this

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NjRUjGH3MtI

I post that because the video was directed by Gretchen Heinel, a badass hook suspension practitioner who did one of the darkest performances I’ve seen. With a live metal band playing for a soundtrack, she and another woman did a bloody suspension/piercing show that was more like a disturbingly beautiful horror movie than a Native American sun ceremony. They looked absolutely possessed.

I’m not sure the video captures it well but here’s the show, :nws: for nudity

E- oh duh, :nms: for hooks through knees and most other parts of the body

Fly For Your Life and the carpenter brut remix of Tech Noir are both incredibly good songs but this one has been in my gym playlist since it came out and it's never leaving.

I almost bought a JP8000 for myself for Xmas thanks to this video. Getting old has it's benefits. Being able to afford all the old synths I wanted when I was a teenager is pretty great.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?
Yeah they very rarely do. The pictures perfect as is anyway

Thanks to some of the music people have linked, youtube put up the soundtrack to the game Furi and it's pretty interesting Carpenter Brut and other synthwave

ed: is there actually a synthwave thread somewhere?

There's nothing like blasting down the PCH in my '81 Vette blaring this stuff. The whole neros77 channel is amazing and a great way to find contemporary Synth bands.
