Anyway, in the spirit of these generals, (last thread was pretty popular), we'll be having a Synthwave Webm thread.
>What is Synthwave?
Synthwave a genre of music characterized with the use of synthesizers, interchangeable with Retrowave.
E.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yergWdn968o
>What is Retrowave/NewRetroWave?
Retrowave is a musical genre that harnesses the inspiration and authenticity of 80's and early 90's music for today's generation.
E.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rSGnNMnvM6M [Embed]
>What is DarkSynth
Darksynth is a sub-genre of Retrowave, with darker, heavier elements, generally sp00ky all round.
E.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BP1C-W8A69s [Embed]
RULES
>DO NOT POST VAPORWAVE
>VAPORWAVE=/=SYNTHWAVE
Just because a genre of music has wave at the end doesn't automatically mean its vaporwave, vaporwave is shitty meme music, if you are into meme music I'd recommend FutureFunk
>NO YOUTUBE LINKS
this is /wsg/ not /url/
>DO NOT POST HOME-RESONANCE
That track is fucking overplayed as fuck on /wsg/ and it doesnt even count as synthwave, its chillwave.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8GW6sLrK40k, [Embed] other chillwave tracks are fine though.

turns out carpenter brute is a frenchy
my favourite track, might aswell have been originated from the 80s
gotta love lazerhawks transition from retrowave to spacewave
now for some sp00ky
Anyway, gotta go for dinner, any lurkers in here? If so, what are your top 5 favourite synthwave artists.
Also if anyone wants to request some albums to download, I'll happily buy it off bandcamp and upload free to share, however most of it is free anyway.

If you like this type of music, I'd highly recommend support the artists by purchasing it off Bandcamp, as they too have rents to pay. More often than not, they are free to download, but you can choose what amount you wish to pay.

Synthwave is a form of Electronic music that takes most of its inspiration from synth music and pop culture from the 1980s. Musically, synthwave is often instrumental and has a "futuristic" theme, with large, throbbing, retro synths. House influenced heavy drums (often side-chained) are also very popular. It draws inspiration from a variety of genres that originated and/or was most popular during the 1980s, including, but not limited to, Synthpop, Progressive Electronic, Italo-Disco, Electro-Disco and other derivative styles. Synthwave albums are generally arranged in a style that is similar to a Film Soundtrack, Film Score, Television Music or Video Game Music album.
The visual element of synthwave is important as well. Album covers are heavily influenced by 1980s films (such as Blade Runner or The Terminator), TV shows (specifically Miami Vice and Knight Rider), video games (notably OutRun and similar titles), and other elements important in 1980s culture.
Vaporwave is a primarily sample-based genre characterized by heavily synthesized and processed manipulation of corporate mood and background music (infomercials, menu screens, instructional videos, office lobbies, hotel reception areas, shopping malls, etc.), though it can include a multitude of genres (most commonly Pop, Contemporary R&B, Synth Funk, Smooth Jazz & Exotica). Vaporwave often consists of brief sketches altered by slowing down, looping, glitching, pitch-bending, and/or echoing a particular sound or sample in a compressed state, usually under reverberation.
Spawned from the derisory term 'Vaporware' (a software or hardware project that fails to be released to the public), Vaporwave alludes to a disconnection or separation from reality presented through its original form. The sound results in a sacred, mystical, sultry, dreamy, hyper-real, and/or crystal-clear caricature of mass media from the late '80s, to the popularity of the home computer of the mid to late '90s, and onward
>>1315385
yeah but what's the song?
>>1315385
I spent several hours last night trying to find the song. Searching for the game, its soundtrack, picking through the soundclouds of the people working on the soundtrack.

Eh, its not that hard, they are very distint in its stylistic and have little to no commonalities whatsoever, claiming synthwave is just another form for vaporwave is like claiming metal as classical music. How I see it is that Synthwave is the overarching genre, which is of course, based under the EDM genre.

i disagree, I think Home definitely classifies as synthwave. 80s pop hooks mixed with the synth sounds from blade runner and some funky ass beats, that's synthwave all the way.
Also, the emphasis on driving in the music videos point to this being a synthwave song.
