Big guitar was a hallmark of the 80s.

I've been impressed by the kind of guitar work they've been able to incorporate into retrowave so well.



Wank and drive..

I think that's the definition of the 80's and "retro." 

Ever thought why "retro" is in? I mean it's not retro to me; more like brings
me back to being a kid but it's odd it's a "thing" right now. 

Synthwave music is literally so easy a chimp could make it. 

@Dark. I like your avatar dude. Where's the dude you shot?
Swimware - Confessions in the Dark



Ummm, WTF?
What the fuck how the fuck?
I'm SHOOK by that song... when I heard it I was like man this has to be sampled.

Or is some kinda underground legit '80s song from a demotape or some shit.

Like it does NOTHING but confirm my theory that a lot of these names in retrowave are legitimate 80s era music artists.
Vosto - Cyber Fire



And THIS song?????

What The Fuck
That song isn't legit retrowave on any level, that's like pure synthwave but it's on this retrowave channel sooo.
I mean it's GOOD good shit. Like I don't care if they mix shit in if it's GOOD.

ESPECIALLY if there are no vocals.

It's awesome...

That said, they (Vosto) have made this song the EVER SO SLIGHTEST too lengthy.

You guys know I am a staunch critic, working since 2012 to critique this genre of music...

I know what I'm talking about when it comes to vocal critiques.

But I also know what I'm talking about when it comes to actual song production.

I won't name any names, but I have done a fair bit work with re-edits and have started more than one trend in the retrowave/synth genre...

As the creator of certain trends, I am telling you, it's a touch too slow. Only a touch... ;)
