 The synthwave bug has me pretty bad right now. Aside from Com Truise, Mitch Murder, Dance with the Dead, what else can I look into?

e: Oh look, there was a synthwave discussion on this very page and I didn't bother to scroll up.

Synthwave is absolute 80s cheese to me and I love it even if it can get repetitive. I still like it more than dubstep

Perturbator's last two or three albums are really solid. Dangerous Days was what originally sold the whole synthwave thing to me.
Dan Terminus is pretty good.
Lost Years for something a bit more chill and very quintessentially 80s sounding.

It's an endless rabbit hole, really. Just dig around in the NewRetroWave channel on Youtube, there's more stuff there than you can ever hope to listen to. :v:

aweeesome thanks <3

 What subgenre of electronic would you guys put Solar Fields, H.U.V.A. Network into?

Recently re-discovered these guys (obviously found Solar Fields right after Mirror's Edge dropped a few years back) and I really like this glitchy, ambient, almost droning style of electronic. Would love to find more along these lines.
