Does anyone know any good synthwave artists? I’ve been listening to Dreamkid on Bandcamp, but I thought I’d also see what other people are listening to.
I really like Kavinsky’s latest album Reborn, specifically the song Pulsar.
Second for Reborn. It’s solid front to back. I’m a big fan of the Zenith, Vigilante, Zombie stretch from the album.
I’m a big fan of Starcadian.
Obvious answer for me is the Midnight. They definitely can be a bit over the top at times.
Check out Power Glove, specifically their EP 2043: Volume 1. It’s a bit different to your regular synthwave, it’s darker and a bit more influenced by techno.
Zone85, gunship, Waveshaper
I’m a fan of Makeup and Vanity Set and Waveshaper.
As far as artists who primarily make synthwave:
Dance With The Dead, FM-84, Gunship, Lazerhawk, Magic Sword, and Miami Nights 1984
I’m also a big fan of Erang (he mostly makes Dungeon Synth music, but he’s got a couple of synthwave albums, namely Anti Future and Songs of ScarsVolkor X is one of my favorites.
I’ve recently been listening to this album by Lazy Laser called Ride On Space Cowboy.
Synthwave with a dash country western twang.
Com Truise is great
Perturbator, VHS Glitch, and on the more chiptune/metal side but still synth: Master Boot Record.
Scandroid
Not sure what falls under the genre but New Order subculture is a classic
Powercyan (RIP), Alex & Tokyo Rose, FOOL, Extra Terra, Lazerpunk, Scandroid, Isidor, NightStop, Arcade High.
Pilotpriest, Lazerhawk, Kavinsky is great, too
