Myrone


Myrone amazes us with a great uplifting, emotional and rocking debut EP. A total zone-out on cruise control, this record brings blazing guitarleads and rolling synthwaves to an all time high. It's hard to pick a favorite but the openingstrack stands out and welcomes us into a romantic dreamland, with vocals by Voyageur. The tone is perfectly set and it all takes off brillantly from there.

Class Action Vol II: Evidence


This is one mighty collaborative effort, the combined forces of Retro Promenade and Weekend Warrior have collided and resulted in this awesome release.

First off we have an incredible compilation including an all-star line up of current synthwave producers, some of them even making their release debut. It's a nice amusement park style arcade, with rollercoasters and other attactions, showcasing a pool of great talent in the scene.

Second; included with the release is a magazine with a panel discussion including Playmaker, Synthetix, Protector101, Silent Gloves, Telefuture, going back and forth about the origin and current state of affairs in the new retro scene. Further more there's awesome movie reviews by Corey Benedict as well as Paul Daly shining a light on new producers with 100 or less followers.

Third; and ofcourse, to keep the physical side of things hot as fuck; there's an awesome C60 cassette of the compilation, neatly handled by Weekend Warrior.

Judge Bitch


'Grideron', the sophomore album by Judge Bitch picks up where he left us behind with his previous (and debut) album for Aphasia. Stellar work, dark, uncompromising tracks, get crunk and nasty with an awesome overlaying radness filter, stirring up any Godforsaken pigeon hole with a whirlwind.
