Hello #synthfam! Here's my review of AM 1984's “Toy’s Car” which takes a charming melody and elaborates it with luscious synth. Review here: www.absynth.space/articles/synth-single-review-toys-car-by-am-1984 #80s #toys #cars #retrowave #synthwave #italodisco #am1984

A remix I did a while ago is on this, and @matthart3808.bsky.social was gracious to include it. It's actually "early" Violet Wanda, before I "gitted gud" - but it was all a process. Happy to finally have it released! It's actually pretty good, just not up to my current quality standards.

FUCK ICE UNTIL THE END OF TIMES

I know I'm repeating myself, but if you were just willing to look for new music and artists (or knew people who did it for you), this has been an amazing year across ALL genres. "People don't make good music anymore" my ass. You couldn't throw a peble without hitting something great!

Castle Byers 🧙 The heart of everything. Made with sticks and twigs, the odds were against it but it endured. A symbol of the pure, untainted resilience of a young and hopeful heart I'm not quite ready to leave the Upside Down, so this is the first in a 3 part series I'm doing in tribute

This is SUCH a great record, Artisan by Tats Yamashita 🎨✨ Not as iconic as For You, or as funky as Spacy, but equally excellent in a different way The whole thing feels more experimental, more intricate, more personal, and the production has this dreamy, interstellar sheen A BANGER

I’m a lot closer to becoming a feudal warlord living in a coastal 18th Century fortress with a garrison of bulldogs protecting our coast from pirates than becoming a touring rockstar. I’m ok with that. No complaints. But thank you for listening and watching my aural-visual celestial adventures.
