80's throwback?


~Rogue~

873 views

The year is 2015, and radio has reached an all-time high of un-intuitive and repetitive pop songs. All seems bleak for mankind, but wait! A glimmer of hope shines through the polluted radio waves. A light that will change music forever.

 

The 80's

 

Whether it's songs like new songs by Bruno Mars, the revisiting of songs by Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd, or a massive return of the nostalgic sounds of 'Daft Punk' and 'Kavinsky', you cannot doubt that the 80's are making quite a massive return. Although it may seem hipster to say 'I liked the 80's before it was popular', the 80's were always a defining time of music.

 

Be being somewhat of an Electronic junkie, I most enjoy artists like 'Lazerhawk' and 'Tesla Boy' that have that sort of Synth sound and constant bassline. These artists provide music for every sort of feeling, whether you want something sad, upbeat, or heavy, they have a great selection of songs with their own distinct sounds.

 

One fine example is the album 'Outrun' by Kavinsky, which makes you feel like you're in an 80's movie.

This album by Savant (who will will cover later) is supposed to be an 80's saturday morning show throwback, and it sounds perfect!

 

 

These are just a few of the examples that are giving tribute to the awesome style of the 80's which is quickly changing our music industry, and music as a whole.

I completely forgot to mention Soundtracks and OSTs!

 

Hotline Miami, Blood Dragon, and a bunch of other games all have this kind of soundtrack.

 

I guess that will have to wait for a Part 2...
