The Midnight - Crystalline (Official Audio)

[@HomekittyL2]

The amount of people saying they're in their 40s and feeling young again is beautiful. If any of the are reading this, I'm barely 21 but this kind of music makes me wish I got to experience the 80s like you did. A good chunk of my generation feels the same way too

[@Tre-vor]

I only got to enjoy the last part of the 80's. I was born in 84 and not the 70's sadly, but the late 80's and early 90's were really similar, but once 1992 came around, things really started changing. Music, television and movies became really different.

[@gamernaruto680]

I am 16 years old and I want the same as you. Being in that decade and seeing the cars, listening to the music and watching the programs just when they came out and the video games. It is something I will always wish for.

[@flashdj1974]

Same age as me, nothing to be ashamed of being a 80s child, when life was hanging out with your mates, on bmx's, and being polite to anyone, not like today, no respect.........

[@donhardcastle5572]

57 here... I met "the one" in Portland Oregon when I was 22 and wild... We ran headlong into the wind and stopped to breathe in Phoenix where greener pastures led her astray... 35 years later, it's 2:30 am, I lay here listening and openly weeping...

[@shibbbieshibbbie]

[@the_mad_captain]

The Midnight makes music for people who need to be taken somewhere but can't get there themselves. Every single track they produce has a knack for transporting your body and spirit to a time in your life that you forgot or have to be reminded of.

[@bicyclist2]

Amen!

[@Ace-po4bp]

The 80s

[@Arrogan28]

No one is capturing the best of the 80's better than this band right now... Seriously brilliant stuff they are making...

[@ethanviera8878]

Gunship?

[@dasdeke]

I think they both capture elements of the 80's! Like em both!!

[@bigl4201]

Agreed. Try "LOME" by sound quelle. I cannot stop listening to that track. such an 80 retro beat. Absolutely love it.

[@enoidsk7169]

Agreed!

[@droptozro]

I know I'm commenting 2 years later... but Lebrock, Dance with the Dead, and Timecop1983 are all also great comparisons right now. I just got recently hooked to The Midnight.

[@noobescape2960]

Rush hour On an uptown train Doors open As she walks in She’s soaking Caught in the rain Her skin shines Crystalline Eyes meet You know where this goes Her keys in They take off their clothes They’re soaking Caught in a dream Her skin shines like Crystalline The problem with believers They’ll let anyone in the door The problem with deceivers Is all the bodies buried under the floor boards Sailors knew sirens would sing From rocks off the cliffs by the sea The monsters with waiting teeth Their skin shines Crystalline Rush hour On an uptown train Doors open As she walks in She’s soaking Caught in the rain Her skin shines Crystalline

[@kdepp90]

Thank you!!!

[@darielvazquez930]

My goodness that intro, that sax, that guitar, that bass, THAT EVERYTHING!!

[@Funny_Milkman]

Intro is from Gunship - Pink Mist

[@bicyclist2]

The Midnight completely captures the essence of the 80's like no other. This is exactly what the 80's felt like. I know, I was a teen in the 80's. The feeling of nostalgia is so strong. Thank you.

[@gypsycyn]

Wow, this track is just as magical if not MORE SO than any other best 80s song!!

[@thenosreme007]

I legit started tearing up when the sax solo started. I got transported back to my childhood in a fraction of a second. This. Is. Incredible.

[@Xanarkhan]

That sax ... ❤️ I discovered this track by jumping from one synthwave track to another and oh my god when I found this one ... 👌🏻 I now follow The Midnight on Spotify and each time I'm driving I listen to this particular track. My favorite 80's style track of all time.

[@SpruceCampbell]

Seconded. I have to hear this song 3x a day minimum. It might just be my favorite track ever now.

[@alexlindberg88]

I'm 100% on board with this. I'm about to drop in a killer sound system in my truck this weekend. I bought a 10.1" Kenwood LED head unit, four 6.5" Focal door speakers paired to 1.5" oversized tweeters with an effective range of 98 decibels, Two 8" JL Audio subs with a JL 700 watt amplifier (will use the factory Sony 700 watt amplifier underneath the shift tower to power the speakers/tweeters. I plan on utilizing every single ounce of range this song has to its full potential!

[@Talalx17]

This and Shadows, man i whole-heartedly agree, best songs for a long drive

[@cristic767]

High energy, my heart is pounding. A lot of sensuality and energy...

[@JeffB-SFJ]

Been listening to The Midnight on a loop for about year. Makes my 44yo heart feel young again. This is my favorite of theirs and I feel 3 key influences in the song: “In the Air Tonight”, “You Belong to the City” (the sax, obviously), and Tangerine Dream’s Risky Business score. Just a great piece of music all-around. Am I the only one that gets the sense that Crystalline might be a serial killer seducing dudes on the train?

[@ryansmith8]

Oh, it's a murder ballad for sure. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_ballad

[@Jæmes117]

Reminds me of something akin to "Species" if you've seen that flick.

[@gelatinous6915]

Try out the State Azure remix of Love On A Real Train from the Risky Business soundtrack. Incredible song.

Beautiful track. So nostalgic. Reminds me of those 80s Hollywood/Hong Kong films

[@Kerath]

This was the very first Midnight song I've discovered. Sufficed to say, when that saxophone dropped like a hammer, I knew I've found something special.

[@SienaFoods]

absolute genius, mimicking the 80s is one thing but you guys have modernised it tastefully and built on it as though 1984 has been going on for 30years. how you create those chords and my god that SAX!!!! I'll try my best to promote your work here in Adelaide Australia

[@enoidsk7169]

[@Talalx17]

[@gelatinous6915]

When the drums hit after that long interlude, goosebumps go down my spine.

[@RemixerDarken]

The song not ending when you expect it to is a really welcome surprise. Especially with that powerful Fm9 chord fading back in.

[@rixanneh18]

I get goosebumps every time I listen to this song. It takes me back to 1982, standing outside on a warm summer night in San Diego, in shorts and a tank, watching the rain as it falls diagonally through the light of the street light on the corner, waiting for my boyfriend to come pick me up. I wish this song had been there with me then, but I'm glad it's here to take me back there now. This whole album is a beautiful ride.

[@stuartwalters6482]

The sax, the rolling synth and the non sensical vocals! 80’s rebirth! Love it!

[@alexlindberg88]

This song just feels wholesome. I love the vast range, the guitar and saxophone solos are perfectly executed in this. I'm having a monster sound system put in my truck this weekend and will be testing out the range and depth of my new system with this. Job well fuckin done, I'm seriously in awe listening to this song!

2:26 took me right back into the 80's. I even recovered a lost memory. Thank you! Question: what's the difference between this track and the one NewRetroWave uploaded?

[@WippleNut]

I know this is a late response, but these uploads are from their personal channel, where NRW is a channel based in putting out tracks from artists (predominantly synthwave), and giving them credit to boost popularity for the song and the artist. Usually most channels like that will either ask the artist, or the artist will ask them, to put the song up and a deal is made over split streaming revenue. there are quite a few sites that post up music without permission, and those usually get into trouble, but channels like NRW (for synthwave), funky panda (for electro-swing), and trap nation (for trap rap, rap, and remixes) will get permission from artists and make a streaming revenue deal in exchange for a bigger exposure range of audiences.

[@SpruceCampbell]

Crystalline: A chase scene on a rainy night plays in my head to this song. The detective is right on the tail of a murderer with a revolver out the window as they slide around on the streets and exchange shots. They get in a wreck where the detective's boxy late 70s car flips but he gets out chasing the guy in foot. Murderer ducks into an alley and that high saxophone note at 4:38 hits right as detective rounds the corner and finds nobody. The detective stands in the dark rain as the camera zooms out in jump cuts from above showing an urban maze of alleys and roads while the song winds down.
