Synthwave Tuesday: Three for the melodies

28th April 202028th April 2020 Atroxity

We have a quite non-melodic focus here on this music blog. We like the dark, non-vocal, deep and clubby vibes here. Synthwave is our excuse to break out of that pattern and salute the overly melodic creations. Continue reading Synthwave Tuesday: Three for the melodies

Throwback Thursday: An unheard revisit to the eighties

16th January 202016th January 2020 Atroxity

I’m not much for looking back. It’s just not in me. I don’t seek backwards to discover unheard tracks and artists.
Therefore it’s a kind of a paradox that I find Synthwave to be as fun as I do. But I do! And here’s a recent discovery of mine:

Happy Holidays: A retro moment with an excellent synthwave track

23rd December 201923rd December 2019 Atroxity

This time of year is all about traditions and looking back. So in the lack of a real xmas track (there’s far between those in the electronica world) I have chosen a really retro one instead. Continue reading Happy Holidays: A retro moment with an excellent synthwave track

Throwback Thursday: Synthwave to the rescue!

12th September 20199th September 2019 Atroxity

Synthwave. Our guilty pleasure here at Beatradar. It’s not underground, not bleeding edge, not deep, usually not even that groovy. Still, I dig it. It’s my safe haven whenever I want some of that eighties charm. Continue reading Throwback Thursday: Synthwave to the rescue!

“What if…” – these were featured in an eighties soundtrack?

21st April 201922nd April 2019 Atroxity

In the eighties the music discoveries were pretty much limited to what we heard on the national TV and radio broadcasters.

Here’s three retrowave tracks that I could totally picture being featured in one of the TV soundtracks back then. What kind of scenes do you imagine seeing them in? Continue reading “What if…” – these were featured in an eighties soundtrack?

O Future, “Telephone”:

17th April 201922nd April 2019 Atroxity

This track made me realise how much I miss the original Twin Peaks soundtrack, and that absolutely stunning vocals in “Falling”.

This track here beats Falling on one area, though. By obscene amounts. Continue reading O Future, “Telephone”:

Double synth-pop Monday: Language Arts, “Against The Wind” & Skauss, “Father”

8th April 20198th April 2019 Atroxity

Today’s double feature contains two tracks that both are located somewhere in the cross-lands between Electro Pop and Synthwave.

One uplifting and feelgood track, and one darker, more alarming one. And both are worth hearing. Continue reading Double synth-pop Monday: Language Arts, “Against The Wind” & Skauss, “Father”

Summer School, “By Myself”: Synth pop extravaganza

4th April 20194th April 2019 Atroxity

So, one of the discoveries I’ve personally done this year is that I actually think Retrowave is a lot of fun – at least in small doses. I’m simply amazed at how authentic some of these acts are able to make it.
Like this track here: Summer School and their track “By Myself”. Continue reading Summer School, “By Myself”: Synth pop extravaganza

Double Feature: Ice Bunny, “Showgirl” and Ophir Berns, “Life Line”

29th March 201929th March 2019 Atroxity

Synthwave: Here’s two tracks who’s got a lot in common, so let’s make it a double feature! Continue reading Double Feature: Ice Bunny, “Showgirl” and Ophir Berns, “Life Line”
