THE BIG 5 OF THE RETROWAVE SCENE FOR 2014!!

NewRetroWave — Tue, 29 Apr 2014 16:52:00 +0000

HEY RETRO LOVERS,

WE HAVE RACKED OUR MINDS VERY HARD TRYING TO FIND THE BEST LIST OF THE TOP 5 RETRO ARTISTS IN THE SCENE RIGHT NOW!! AHEM….. WE FINALLY HAVE IT….

WE DECIDED TO DO 5 RATHER THAN 10 TO AVOID INCREASED MADNESS.

5. PERTURBATOR

BEST KNOWN FOR

With a highly anticipated new album getting released this year, Perturbator is set to be the next big thing since slices SPAM. Not only does Pert have a strong internet presence, but Perturbator now looks to take over other realms with his sound! A beast in the making.

4. FM ATTACK

BEST KNOWN FOR

FM Attack recently announced he will be calling it quits after his last retro inspired album. Sad news, but this guy has paved the way for many of the new musicians in this scene. Consistent and solid in sound, FM Attack’s original sounds makes him a deadly force. Not to add that he also sells 10K+ in albums. BEAST!

3. MIAMI NIGHTS 1984

BEST KNOWN FOR

Miami Nights 1984 is one of the few artists who has actually received a notable publication (Rolling Stone Magazine) and has actually worked with a Grammy nominated artist (Gotye). His uplifting retro bliss synths are one of the most authentic 80’s feel to the scene. Miami Nights 1984 promises to give us his best work yet this year when he releases his new album!!

2. LAZERHAWK

BEST KNOWN FOR

Lazerhawk is one of the few artists with a dominant internet presence in this retro scene. All if not most of his videos quickly surpass 10K and keep climbing monthly due to the heavy demand for his sound. No-one else in the scene has this kind of lockdown. NOONE!! Not to mention that Lazerhawk has an exquisite talent for authentic synthwave driven horrorcore, and dreamwave hits. Gheeese! This guy OWNS!!

1. POWER GLOVE

BEST KNOWN FOR

Power Glove are literally the pioneers of this Synthwave Genre. Not only did they inspire Lazerhawk to begin his conquest in this genre, but they have the most TV, media and online publications to date. Featuring in major TV shows such as “Key and Peele” and major game soundtracks for “Farcry 3: Blood Dragon”, as well as the IGN gaming site, these guys are literally putting the retro scene on the map, at a MAJOR level. If a major/ independent label want to sign you, better thank these moguls for their efforts in getting this scene exposure!!!

METROPOLIS IS COMING!!

WHO IS MONOMER…….WELL YOU ARE ABOUT TO FIND OUT!!!

NewRetroWave — Tue, 07 May 2013 22:27:00 +0000

AHEM

THIS GUY OR GAL…..IN A SPAN OF LESS THAN ONE MONTH HAS NOT ONLY TAKEN OVER THE NUMBER ONE SPOT ON THE BANDCAMP 80S CHARTS….HE/ SHE IS ALSO LOOKING TO STORM THE ELECTRONIC CHARTS AS WELL. ALREADY BEATING XXYYXX AND PERTURBATOR IN THESE CHARTS!!!

PERTURBATOR IS A BEAST…SO IT IS SHOCKING FOR A NEW NAME LIKE THIS TO SUPERSEDE THE ONE WE REFER TO AS…..MASTER.

I MEAN IF YOU LOOK AT PERTURBATOR’S SALES FOR “I AM THE NIGHT”…IT SPANS DOWN THE PAGE SO FAR IT IS BANANAS (284 BUYERS TO BE EXACT TO DATE). AND THAT IS ONLY SALES WITH BANDCAMP PROFILE USERS, THERE ARE STILL THOSE WHO BUY FROM PERT WITHOUT MAKING AN ACCOUNT ON BANDCAMP. PLUS HIS PLAYS AND BUZZ ARE THROUGH THE ROOF THANKS TO THE “HOTLINE MIAMI”SOUNDTRACK.

MONOMER DOESNT EVEN HAVE 100 BUYERS YET, BUT HE/ SHE (DANGNABBIT…THE SEX OF THIS ARTIST IS UNKNOWN….THUS WE ARE NOW REFERRING TO MONOMER AS IT) HAS SHOW HOW BEASTLY ITS MUSIC IS IN PLAYS AND BUZZ!

MAKE NO MISTAKE, MONOMER IS TALENTED AND HAS EVERY RIGHT TO BE REAPING ITS SUCCESS. CHIPTUNES MIXED WITH 80S SYNTHS SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN AN EPIC AND REWARDING BLEND FOR MONOMER.

HOWEVER, WE DO FEEL THAT UBIKTUNE (SITE HOSTING/ RELEASING THIS ALBUM) IS A MAJOR MACHINE THAT IS PUSHING THIS ALBUM TO A MASS AUDIENCE!!

MONOMER IS OWNING RIGHT NOW!!

THOUGHTS?

IS THERE SUCH A THING AS OVER-PRODUCING IN THE RETRO SCENE?

NewRetroWave — Tue, 19 Mar 2013 00:29:00 +0000

OK, OK, OK

BASICALLY……..WE HAVE NOTICED THAT MANY OF THE LOYAL RETRO FANS OF THIS UNDERGROUND 80S REVIVAL SCENE FEEL THAT SOME REVIVAL ARTISTS MAKE TOO MANY SONGS AND ALBUMS……. AND RELEASE THEM TO CLOSE TOGETHER!

THIS COULD BE DAMAGING TO THE SCENE IF QUALITY CONTROL IS NOT ENFORCED!!! OVERPRODUCTION WILL HURT THIS SCENE PEEPS!

EXAMPLE

IGNORE THE SILLY GIRL ON THE LEFT FOLKS……..FOCUS …….ALTHOUGH THE HIGHLIGHTED GUY ON THE LOWER RIGHT IS BEING DISRESPECTFUL TO THE ARTIST, WHICH NRW DOES NOT STAND FOR, REALIZE THAT WHAT THIS DUDE IS SAYING IS A SEMI VALID POINT. WE LOVE SELLOREKT AND THIS IS NO STAB AT HIS MUSIC OR WORK ETHIC. HE IS A MASTER OF HIS CRAFT! BUT IS IT NECESSARY TO RELEASE AN ALBUM SO OFTEN???……..EVERY MONTH?? THIS GOES FOR ANY ARTIST IN THIS FIELD.

(WE ARE NOT PICKING ON SELLOREKT, JUST AN EXAMPLE)

IT SURELY IS QUALITY OVER QUANTITY…..RIGHT?

WHAT CAN AN ARTISTS GAIN FROM RELEASING ALBUMS IN SHORT TIME SPANS?! A QUICK BUCK…OR A CHANCE TO GROW A REAL LOYAL FANBASE?

FOR THIS SCENE TO LAST AND PROSPER, ALBUMS NEED TO BE SEEN AS GOLDEN TICKETS!!! GEMS IF YOU LIKE. THE MORE OF A WAIT A FAN CAN GET UNTIL THE NEXT ALBUM …….. THE GREATER THE SALES WILL BE FOR THE NEXT ALBUM.

AN ALBUM A YEAR IS JUST FINE MY PEOPLE!!!! LOL

AN ALBUM EVERY MONTH/ 2 MONTHS/ 3 MONTHS IS STRAIGHT OVER KILL!!!! THERE IS NO NEED FOR THIS.

(NOT COUNTING EP’S, MIXTAPES, COMPILATIONS…ETC)

EVEN ARCADE HIGH AGREES MANY ARTISTS ARE DOING THIS

WE KNOW THAT ONCE A PRODUCER IS IN THE ZONE, HE/ SHE WANTS TO PUT OUT HIS WORK AND SHARE THEM. BUT THIS SCENE ISN’T A PRODUCER FOR THE PRODUCER SCENE. KEEP THAT BEHIND THE SCENES.

SHARING SONGS WITH FANS WORLDWIDE AND GETTING RECOGNITION IS THE MAIN GOAL HERE……RIGHT?!

REAL LISTENING FANS WHO WANT TO HEAR QUALITY TRACKS MATTER SOOOOO MUCH! THEY GET YOUR SOUND ABOUT VIA WORD OF MOUTH! HOW CAN YOU NEGLECT THEM?!

FOCUS ON QUALITY…..

AND DJ’S WHO WANT TO SPIN TRACKS TO INCREASE RETRO BUZZ SHOULD NEVER BE IGNORED.

WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS PEOPLE?

TESLA BOY SEEMS TO BE EDGING AWAY FROM THE 80S RETRO SYNTH SOUND FOR GOOD??!!

NewRetroWave — Tue, 19 Mar 2013 00:03:00 +0000

THIS TRACK IS ENTITLED “1991” AND HARNESSES AN AUTHENTIC EURO ACIDHOUSE FLAVA FROM THE 90S.

BUT WHAT HAPPENED TO THE 80S GUYS??!! ALTHOUGH THIS MAY BE A CONCEPT TRACK, IT OPENS THE DOOR FOR MANY MORE QUESTIONS AS TO WHY TESLA BOY’S PAST FEW SOUNDS HAVE BEEN…….WELL……….LESS GOLDEN 80S’S ERA THAN BEFORE!!!

MANY NRW FANS ALSO COMPLAINED THAT TESLA BOYS SONG ENTITLED ‘SPLIT” WAS ALSO NOT AS RETRO AS THEY PREFERRED. WE LOVE TESLA BOY AND WANT THEM TO STAY TRUE AND RETRO….TO THE 80S!!!

LISTEN TO “1991” AND TELL US WHAT YOU THINK/

NEW JUST IN: NRW IS PLANNING ON SOMETHING BIG FOR THE FANS!!

NewRetroWave — Wed, 13 Mar 2013 22:44:00 +0000

YES…YOU GUYS HEARD IT HERE FIRST.

NRW IS CURRENTLY IN THE WORKS OF GETTING A NRW SPONSORED CLUB/ BAR IN BROOKLYN NYC!

WE ARE HOPING THAT ALL PLANS GO SMOOTHLY TO ALLOW FOR A SUMMER INTRODUCTION.

FOR THOSE IN OTHER CONTINENTS…IF THIS GETS APPROVED……WE WILL NEED YOUR SUPPORT TO MAKE THIS A SUCCESSFUL EVENT!!

THE DEMAND FOR THE RETROWAVE SCENE GROWS DAILY AND WILL SOON THE NUMBERS OF CLUBS THAT PLAY THIS MUSIC.

WE HOPE TO ADD TO THIS FOREFRONT.

MORE UPDATES TO COME!
