I've been enjoying this for the past week or so

Great stuff, I'm digging this Volkor X! That style of synthwave is my fav, the Laserhawk, Carpenter Brut, kind of of intense at times synthwave. The laidback stuff is cool too though.

Yeah, that's why I like it. Reminds me of Lazerhawk or Dan Terminus with some Dance With the Dead guitar work.

Yo Kaker I notice when I run Shazbot after a brief period it just stops updating current track, or at least takes a while. What's up with that

Vector Hold is playing at a bar in downtown San Jose on 4/15 (a Saturday night) - https://www.facebook.com/events/607860282747723/

Some other band called B / I / R / T / H / D / A / Y whom I have not seen live, but sounds promising.

They're the children of cuban expats who are really mad about what happened still that they support the embargo and other measures because they want to punish Castro at the expense of also pointlessly punishing the families and citizenry of the island. THey should be ashamed and ignored in national policy but it's entirely unsurprising.

That's the side of miami absolutely nobody is drawing their musical aesthetic choices from.

Which is weird, Miami is pretty big on EDM and electronica back before the instagram bros jumped up and down in front of some decks. I've never been but I heard club Space closed but then again most synthers play smaller venues

Maybe the darker synth acts are actively avoiding it because they want what they think are grittier cities?
