let's ignore all the rad forward-thinking things about 80s synth music and make it terrible on the level of power metal instead.

There's new retro wave music and there's also new retro wave games. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oc0nTekTAkU http://www.darkcomputerentertainment.com/ More music. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5-mD6Dy7c0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1NAhlVRaZ4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNVGfV2lXVY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G22X5X49VhM Cyril Sneer posted:its just called "retro wave" dummy. This is true and actually part of the fun of the movement is there's so much of it and it's easy to find and leaf through - which means that when you stumble across a gem, it feels like the song was made just for you. The fact is that there was *already* tons of lovely synth music made using these techniques back in the 80's, so everyone knows what bad 80's synth sounds like. It is interesting to see amateurs experiment though, and more fun than listening to overhyped radio flash in the pans from that era. I'd rather listen to low quality amateurish fan built retro stuff than the shittiest actual music from the 80's. Fortunately, there's a considerable amount of really loving great stuff too.

In new GBS its impossible to tell if someone is serious or not. The signal to noise in this genre is way, way too low. It's full of people who figured out how to make noises come out of a synthesizer and realized that they don't actually have to know how to write lyrics or sing so hey I'm a retro wave musician now College and Kavinsky are examples of the few that are good.

Cyril Sneer posted:In new GBS its impossible to tell if someone is serious or not. Let me put it this way: My posts in GBS 2.1 are a Rorschach inkblot test to find out if someone is a chill individual or a paranoid hater. quote:The signal to noise in this genre is way, way too low. It's full of people who figured out how to make noises come out of a synthesizer and realized that they don't actually have to know how to write lyrics or sing so hey I'm a retro wave musician now Yes and that is my point. You pretty much have to manually sort through it yourself - it's like an online version of the experience of leafing through record albums and finding something that in spite of its shortcomings appeals to you personally somehow. You can do that with music in general, but it's particularly fun for me with new retro wave given how well the music style meshes with my interest in video games.

Is there a name for that kind of dreamy, more optimistic space age stuff that evokes thoughts of interstellar space travel and not dystopian cyberpunk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dkx_PWjzbTM like so

I think a genre is justified by the music in it that i like. i couldn't care less about amateurs making sup par records no matter how many of them there are and fretting about them seems kind of dumb imo.

Sabel posted:Strong Defcon vibes from this video The draw of new retro wave for me is the idea that technology in filmmaking and games (as well as music production) has caught up with the cyberpunk ideas of the past. We basically *can* make those weird 'future games' we would see in 80s movies now. We *can* make amateur movies with surprisingly good digital special effects. We *can* create animated films with the visual techniques of the past but realized in the fidelity and attention to detail of today. This is also why I feel like some aspects of new wave retro are timeless and keep going steadily for a while. As tech gets better, we find we can realize the cool imaginative ideas of the past in surprising ways. Spacedad fucked around with this message at 16:45 on Dec 29, 2013 |

OMFG FURRY posted:i want my future of everything in chrome Same, but for me it's lasers on black backdrops. Here, have a desktop background I drew for a TF2 event.  Here's the event itself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FsuIpG7q_20 Forum user Stick figure mafia actually created some original new retro wave style music for the event video.  Edit: More of my drawings here. http://superspacedad.tumblr.com/ Edit2: I guess this is also a new-retro drawing. (And if i had more time before the event started I would have looked into how to make convincing laser optical effects in photoshop)  Eventually I'll be able to put the time and effort in to make stuff that isn't just fun fan drawings, but that'll be later.

Thanks! Also, anyone interested in new retro wave art should check out Kilian Eng: http://dwdesign.tumblr.com/   He even did illustrations to go with each track on a Blade Runner tribute album. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFCnJ-R33jw

Need more video games that resemble old fantasy art that isn't grimdark D&D poo poo. Mass Effect had a good thing going with the Syd Mead and we need more stuff like that. and I wish Patrick Nagel was still alive
