GUNSHIP - Tech Noir [Official Music Video]

[@leeredding3708]

I lost my older brother to depression and suicide about a month ago now. World's been pretty messed up since. This was the last song he ever shared with me. It hurts a lot, but listening to it and watching the video just puts me back in a place where I can feel his presence as we vibe and watch a lot of these old movies. Wonderful song, video and band. Thank you for this gift. (EDIT) Its been over two years since I listened to this song for the first time and made this comment. A lot of life has happened in the interim. I find myself is better straits than I was back then. I've grown closer to friends and to my surviving siblings and learned more of myself and what I want out of this life and world. Still through all of the trials and successes since then, this song and GUNSHIP have remained a place of comfort to me. I am ever grateful for the stories they share. To all those who have replied, no matter your intent or thought or belief, I appreciate the outpouring and expression of humanity and connection. To reply to any one in particular I'd feel the need to reply to all, so forgive me my laziness in grouping it all here instead. Thank you for making the world a little bit smaller and strangers a little bit closer. I ask that you choose to live your lives with compassion and kindness, to both yourself and to others when you're able so as to bring more beauty into your life. Tell someone you love them today. Tell yourself that you are loved. The world can be full of so much pain and tragedy, but beauty abounds throughout as well. Appreciate it when you're able. Stay rad and look out for one another.

I just now noticed: when the hero grabs the three VHS tapes before jumping into the movie, he grabs Rocky, He-Man and Escape from New York… but someone had put Care Bears inside the Escape from New York box, which is why he was bewildered when he transformed into the care bear later instead of Snake Plisken. Mix matched videos and boxes. This truly is the authentic 80’s experience. XD

[@lardvark6983]

Brilliant! So many subtle references to the 80’s. The villains with an adjustable spanner like in Aha’s Take on me.

Holy cow you're right. That was subtle. Very amusing.

[@heythatsnotmywalrus2819]

[@tophermorvan1509]

That is sweet attention to detail. And let us all face it - dang but this video is just begging for us to notice stuff. It's like, a big turn-on to the part of my brain that notices stuff in Weird Al or Phish videos

[@jasoninthehood9726]

36 years old here. VHS tapes in the wrong box was constant. The worst was renting them from the video store and realizing the wrong tape was in it when you already got home. Also a pain in the ass when someone didn’t rewind it - be kind, please rewind.

[@gruma37]

I'd be surprised if this doesn't become a hit just because of that chorus. Definitely would have been on every radio in the 80s.

[@gruma37]

Protagonist 'as The whole point is a recreation of 80s music. You literally just described every chorus in the 80s. By that logic, I'd say they're doing great.

[@christopherd1356]

I'd actually say it sound MORE 80s than 80s bands. TV shows and movies didn't have the connections to pop or rock bands, so most all TV dramas would hire one guy (on coke 😊) with a synth to do soundtracks. Miami Vice was the first exception to that. So I think you miss the mark. This is 80 TV music, not radio music.

[@christopherd1356]

+Blade Runner I think the cheesy chorus is an intrinsic part of the effect. Remember Hans Zimmer? A "better" chorus would make this sound too modern, or perhaps weirdly older. I don't know what you're thinking. We're you even around I the 80s?

+Mixmaximum ITA Am I the only one that thinks it says "could this be our way?" Just with vocal emphasis at the beginning which is why we hear the sort of "H" sound at the beginning, I could be wrong, but our way seems to suit the previous lines of "you'll be my focus" and "could this be"

[@MaxDamageTV]

Tbh, nearly EVERY synthwave band has a track called "Tech Noir". Just off the top of my head : Noir Deco. Perturbator. Gunship. Babylon 86. Nowtro. List goes on... It's a genre trope at this point.

maybe pull a Red Dead 2 and have this playing during a 'one last ride' moment. Imagine it.... while you've kicked your monocycle into high gear to go attack the bad element, a loved one finds the recording at home, maybe even a keepsake left beside it.. meanwhile, you are into the thick of it, bullets and electrics flying with blood and guts everywhere. But then, right by the end of it, you get mortally blasted and turn over to attack. ..and it's them. Your best friend, the one you trusted.

welcome to the club. stumbled across it years ago and it hasn't lost any of its magic. Gunship songs are strange in a sense that all of them grow on you. If youre not really feeling a song, then one day you'll hear it and it you will love it. Haha . it will sound totally different and you're like how did i not like this song before b/c now its amazing!! Its really weird but eventually you like them all. that was my experience anyway. And im still waiting to come across someone live in the flesh who is a fan. Crazy how nobody I know or meet has heard of these guys.

[@eggboy1421]

That part from 3:55 to the end of the song is just so incredibly amazing, favorite part. I LOVE IT.

[@sjorspion]

Ok let's be honest: I found this music clip, liked it very much and started to rip song for song from YT. Then I realised I liked it so much I wanted to give them my support, so I visited there site and bough their album (only 8 bucks!) Come on guys, don't let good artists go to waste, buy there album to show your support. @GUNSHIPMUSIC: can't wait till the next album!

[@mountedpatrolman]

@Standard Excelsior I think the 80's early 90's were probably the best time in History to grow up so far, because we had Technology, but the internet was just burgeoning and kids weren't stuck in a phone or a computer, we had great imagination (D&D, all sorts of RPG's and table top games), the toys were so much better than the shit they have out today.... GI Joe, Lazer Tag, and the cartoons that went with them. It was really the last Era where you could get a way with crazy shit, without someone calling the police on you, or turning your parents into CPS. We would buy cases of roman candles, and mortars to have massive fireworks wars, we would jump in old cars and race the shit out of them...….

[@baronclime6423]

@@mountedpatrolman Yes. Very much. I live in a what is increasingly less a rural area and it was great. Cruise the local shopping center parking lot. drinking or getting with the gals, if a cop or deputy caught you it was pretty much "take it to the back roads kids and we don't have to notice" type of things. The only people who were a problem were and are the jackoff tourists. We had it made. You only got into deep doo if you did something pretty bad. Miss those days.

@Drakilicious Well I grew up in the late 80s & early 90s and while I get what your saying I'm also pretty sure the world just really sucks now.

[@Awall79]

@Drakilicious I totally get what you are saying. Just like Socrates quote and how every generation thinks the next is going down hill but I think the internet is the big game changer here. Historically technological advances have never moved so fast. Yes, the telephone replaced the telegraph, the car replaced the horse and buggy, tv replaced the radio but those changes were nothing compared to the sociological changes the advancements in computers, the internet and now social media have not only brought to our society but the world as a whole. Kids today don't even know what an encyclopedia is (I know because I'm a teacher) and they retain less information than ever before because everything is stored on their phones or computer drives. They interact socially less and we are seeing a rise in anti-social behavior across large populations of young adults and teens. This isn't me talking, this is sociological research. Ok, I may have rambled a little, but the point is before everyone was connected to everyone else with a push of a button and before screens became the main way people communicated, things were a lot different and for a great many people, better. Statistically Icelanders are some of the happiest, healthiest people on the planet. In studies they contribute a great deal of their happiness to community and local gathering of people....thats something the internet has a tendency to circumvent. Sorry, I research this stuff and I just find it interesting. I tend to get carried away. :)

And I'm seeing this lovely young person interested in such an obscure band and their music, from my youth. I don't know exactly why, but it makes me tear up and feel like weeping. I don't know if it's joy because of your playing, or if it's in mourning for my lost youth. Please carry on with your interests, your enthusiasm, your delight in these things that to me, seem on the very edge of being lost and forgotten; like my younger years. Thank you for it.
