Album Review: Street Cleaner - Annihilation

West Coast Darksynth phenom Street Cleaner comes forward with his latest album, Annihilation, an absolutely insane masterwork, his best yet. It has a little bit for everyone, It revels in it's heavy, intense Darksynth sound, with incredibly brutal basses and drum fills that will (for lack of better words) annihilate your speakers. It also love bringing some really high leads and funky melodies for those who love the lighter sounds, and balances them in a way that feels extrem

Album Review: Vampire Step-Dad - The Sun Also Sets

Atlanta based Synthwave producer Vampire Step-Dad is back with his 7th album, The Sun Also Sets, which feels right at home with it's sibling releases, but also stands out from the rest. Not in a bad way though; by all means, this album is spectacular, but it takes itself more seriously than the others under VSD's belt, which is perfectly fine. There is an air of self reflection here, the whole album seems feels like a look in the mirror; taking stock of yourself and seeing wh

Album Review : The Warhorse - Bone Apple Tea (Maxi-Single)

Self Titled "Silverlake Synthpunk" outfit The Warhorse are back after years with not a new full length, but a teaser of such release. This is their new Maxi-Single (Just like in the 2000's), Bone Apple Tea. Don't let the comedic title fool you, this is anything but comedic. The Warhorse bring some absolutely raw lyrics about originality and being yourself amongst a sea of copycats. It's follows up by my personal favorite on the release, "Yeah Ok Ozymandias", a phenomenally cr

Synthwave On The Big Stage: Wolfenstein and the Power of the Genre

So I am someone who really loved video games, as a matter of fact, it was a video game that got me into the Synthwave scene as a whole (Hotline Miami, go figure). I've always been a fan of the more action oriented games, and especially First Person Shooters, as some of the first games I played were Quake and Doom, both by Id Software. One series, also produced by Id, that I really enjoy is Wolfenstein, and I have especially enjoyed the modern versions made by MachineGames, Ol

Single Review: Exit Plan - TerrorDyne

Exit Plan is the newest track from West Coast Synthwave artist, TerrorDyne. Someone who should already be on your watch list, but this single makes his name a necessary one for any Synthwave fan. Dripping in sultry synths, this track his hard with all the beauty of a (cliché but accurate) drive through the neon sunset. The Encounter also helped with the mixing/mastering, and it shows, the kicks are punchy, and the highs are just sweet enough without being too much. With an am
