the patching and production are 90s, these synthwave aesthetics are more like the artists trying to preserve new wave. there weren't a lot of free running LFOs on 80s records.. and very few speech synths. only reson i stopped is bcs pumped up kicks should be recognised for its use of interesting texture in a pop song. first precedent production i'm aware of is hilt's "call the ambulance before i hurt myself" in 1990. running all those tasty gritty interesting background noises instead of just having to listen to some dickhead bang on a string.... dangerously close to cultural advance there kids.

The Hunter Killer smashes through the skulls, making a sickening crunch sound as the Earth rumbles beneath it. Tens of thousands of people's bones lay strewn about the blue-charred landscape, tarnished by the ultra-high temperatures of the previous nuclear engagement. The resistance tries to fight back, but to no avail. The truck, desperately dumping all available violet plasma into the HK, just can't penetrate the new alloys. The truck is blown up by one of the HK's powerful arm cannons, of which it has four. The monstrous behemoth seems unstoppable, but just then, a small group of elite soldiers, led by John Connor, tosses a portable plasma fusion bomb into its treads. It sets off the plasma reactor, blowing the HK into shrapnel. The crew of the truck is trapped to be burned alive, their faces melting into the twisted landscape... Teacher: Okaaay. That's great Jimmy! Quiet kid: But there's more. Teacher: No, that's okay. You did great. Uh, Billy, you're up next.

I love synthwave and this song helped me get through a tough time in my life. No joke. I was very sad, depressed, had to write an enormous thesis and I didn't even have a table to put my laptop on. I would put the laptop on a chair, books on another chair nearby, and this song on loop in a tab. I must have listened to it thousands of times, and when I got tired of writing I would sometimes just open the tab and look at the clip and the lyrics. Just wanted to say thank you the creator. God bless you.

Fun fact: One of the other names of Synthwave is Outrun.

[@tomascostaPT]

my gun

[@cymond]

I think that refers to a much more specific subgenre, whixh I'm pretty sure was started by Kavinsky.

[@aethex8821]

Outrun stems from vaporwave. Outrun is more focused on criticizing modern society/culture, whereas vaporwave is trying to show a certain love for the past.

[@TitorEPK]

@@aethex8821 what are you even talking about? if anything, vaporwave came after original synthwave/outrun. Synthwave was "created" earlier than vaporwave. I don't know where did you see the criticizing of anything in outrun, it's about reminiscing about past, retro vibe and nostalgia. Mind linking me some of those "criticizing" outrun tracks/examples? I'm not a big fan of vaporwave, to me it's just a leeching genre without originality, since most vaporwave tracks are just sampling old music. Not only that, but outrun in general is far more positive than vaporwave with its commonly slowed down parts and pitch.

[@TitorEPK]

@@cymond I'd say that in the past 10 years Synthwave got defined as the main name of the whole genre, and outrun became its subgenre, even though Outrun is the original name. Outrun originated from "Outrun" itself, and Kavisnky popularized it, didn't start it.

as someone who listened to 80s music as a kid, id say this sounds more modern. the vocals in the 80s were stronger, still autotuned sometimes, but take robert smith for rick astley for example. they loud. the music video would have more expressive dancing, women, and less special effects. the background synth sound 80s, but the rest of the instrumental sounds more like something from today. no hate at all though, i really enjoyed it! edit: i never said i was alive in the 80s. i just listen to 80s music. i am a teenager
