SgtScruffy posted:Is it me, or are the two options for seeing any sort of synthwave artist live to either live in Los Angeles, or to live in Europe? I find that pretty hard to believe given how easy to make and generally lazy the music is. Surely the local synth nerds have a project or two wherever you are?

Instant Crush posted:i personally dont really get why metalheads are into synthwave. pretty much the only metal i like is as close to shoegaze as possible, while i am crazy about all sorts of synth It's because a lot of metalheads like very tacky things and they also don't know much about electronic music

Alan Smithee posted:So apparently fashwave is a thing it doesn't seem very surprising that a genre spread primarily on internet forums that is mostly about nostalgia for an imagined past might attract that sort of thing.

Tolstojevski posted:How about some new wave from when it really was new? I'm primarily stuck on that sort of thing, post punk and 'new' wave, and being from Serbia I know a huge amount of bands operating all over Yugoslavia in the 80s. Think we really kicked rear end as far as music goes in that time period, so I'll drop some representative stuff down. This is a good post about cool music(that videosex album rules) but it's going to be lost on most of this thread because they want to talk about corny contemporary synth stuff made by computer programmers rather than actual new wave. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

fyi the imagery is probably there because a bunch of synthwave guys were in mediocre black metal bands before they started doing synthwave

Retrowave stuff is really popular with 4chan alt right guys so they're not too far off base.

The article doesn't say that Perturbator is alt right(and in fact goes out of its way to say that he isn't), just that many alt right guys listen to him, which is correct.

Gaspy Conana posted:is there a separate thread for non-synthwave highfalutin experimental electronic music or is this it? i'm looking for stuff similar to the last 2ish years of Orange Milk Records releases. i'd call that vaporwave adjacent I s'pose because of the death's dynamic shroud connection. the sonic palette contains more FM/wavetable synthesis and windowsXP/vista-esque piano & found sounds and the song structures are usually bonkers. often it sounds like the electronic version of free jazz or weirder non-jammy prog. any other labels out there doing similar stuff? no one in this thread knows anything about this stuff, try asking in the phiz ambient/drone/noise thread.

Somebody should create duplicate projects of all the big synthwave guys and see how long it takes for anyone to notice.
