Thank You!!!

I can not thank everyone enough for the feedback and views. I have had a blast doing this blog and I wish to continue it. I love this movement/ genre and I am so happy that I can share it with others. It's a crazy thought that an entire library or world of music can exist but we may never even know about it. So thanks again everyone for stepping in and taking a chance on something new.

and for my 20th post I simply leave with one of my favorite songs of all time and to me what I consider an unmatched sense of genius from the one and only Jan Hammer!!

Midnight

Midnight City

Last year French electronic band M83 which was formed by Anthony Gonzalez and Nicolas Fromageau released a track entitled Midnight City and my blog would not be complete if I did not at least mention it. Hitting over 19 million views on youtube and becoming the leading single for their 6th album "Hurry up, We're Dreaming". The song has a dream like sound which include the use of Synthesizer's and Saxophones. Please check out the video below courtesy of youtube. Enjoy this remarkable track!!

A New wave again

On the Attack!!

Shawn Ward otherwise known as Fm Attack is a musician/producer and created FM Attack out of his love for 80's synth pop, Disco, and New Wave. He made his debut in 2009 with his Cd Dreamatic and received critical acclaim which led him to collab and create several remixes. The sound of his music is definitely a wonderful remembrance of the New Wave from the 80's. However he does have several tracks with more funk influences as well. I can not wait to see what he will have in store for us in the future but its FM Attack along with several other artists that in my opinion will lead the way for the New Wave sound.

Arc Neon

An excellent sound

Arc Neon is a Synthwave producer from London. He originally has done some indie elctro music but has since dipped into 80's synth experimentation and as a result we are given Night Heat Original Motion Picture Soundtrack. The creativity here is simply amazing and is only surpassed by the actual sound. The movie may be fictional but the talent and music is not I encourage everyone to check it out and who knows maybe one day we we'll be lucky enough to see the film.

college

College it's for everyone

My Blog would not be complete if I had not brought up or even mentioned College. David Grellier is a member of the electroclash band Sexy Sushi. Going by his stage name Mitch Silver he was born in Nantes, France in 1979 but I have always known him for his musical projects College & Valerie. The College project was intended to add in the emotions of David's childhood and by being heavily influenced by American 80's pop-culture he creates a masterpiece of nostalgia. With other releases such as Northern Council and Secret Diary College created the song Real Hero which ended up on the movie "Drive" Soundtrack. It also went on to make it to #26 on the French charts. Like Futurecop! I strongly encourage everyone to check out the music for College does an extremely well job of capturing a the feeling of a decade...all you have to do is listen!  (Videos courtesy of Youtube)

DVAS is a duo  from Canada signed to Upper Class Recordings. The group consists of Dietzche V. & the Abominable Snowman. I happened to discover their album "Society" which released in 2010 while browsing through music on Amazon and needless to say I was blown away by their heavy synth sound and cool vocals. Their is not a lot of information found on these two but I'm hoping we can expect more wonderful music from them in the near future please feel free to check them out!!
