If the album’s terrific artwork (made by Kevlar: Estudio) wasn’t enough to stoke your interest, Учитесь Защищать Родину! (tr: Learn to defend the Motherland!) marks a new high for Project Lazarus and their sci-fi influenced soviet synth compositions and is a near-certain contender for Sovietwave record of the year. Take some time off, kick your feet up with a warm cup of coffee and get ready to bask in the sheer sense of wonder as felt from the other side of History, across the iron curtain.

To anyone with any leftover apprehensions towards the Sovietwave sound, ‘1984? Нет!’ is yet another impeccably produced chance to fall in love with the sounds of interstellar nostalgia.

Thoughts clouded by intense feelings of wanderlust?  Bronster Bridge may just be the answer to your escapist cravings. Returning to the scene with a whole new set of tracks, the producer taps into the commodified comfort of airline travel on ‘Breakfast on the Runway’. Cruising somewhere between spacesynth chillwave and vapor-infused synthwave, the album packs a great deal of groove but always stops short of deviating too far from its core aesthetic and concept. From the slick, mellow opener ‘Broadcasting’, the album lifts you off into a serene space, in a heavenly garden of clouds basking in a pink sunset haze. For those looking to fill the void left by months of immobility, ‘Breakfast on the Runway’ may just come off as the soundtrack to the greatest air travel ad to ever hit you straight in the feels.

Bronster Bridge ‘Breakfast on the Runway’ is out now via Spotify and Bandcamp.

With its action-packed tracks blending nostalgic Synthwave vibes with a healthy balance of modern touches borrowed from EDM and Dubstep, Odyssey by Lost Engineer has hit the retrowave scene with the unmistakable flair of a seasoned producer.

 

Every track flows impeccably with an irresistible momentum and will dazzle you with its immersive sound design and slick dance grooves.

If this first album is anything to go by, it’s that young producer Maxim Shipp from Saratov Russia has a bright musical future ahead of him.

Drawing inspiration from the Sovietwave genre as well as his personal musical upbringing in former Czechoslovakia (east of the iron curtain),  АЛКОНАВТ (ａｌｃｏｎａｕｔ) paints a dreamy, otherworldly picture weighed down by a solemn tone.

 

 

As the artist explains, the album is a tribute to the people of the “second world”.

It’s also a tribute to the suffering people of the so called ‘Second world’, those who weren’t able to get along after the collapse and ended up as ”Alconauts” once poverty, crime, drug use, alcohol use and suicides skyrocketed. Plus, it’s my tribute to the groundbreaking achievements of the Soviet space program.

The title ”Alconaut” is a cross-breed of alcoholic and cosmonaut, a reference to any human being who can either achieve the highest high becoming an astronaut or dropping to the lowest low as an alcoholic…and sometimes even both worlds may collide…

If you haven’t gotten around to giving Sovietwave a chance, this epic, heartfelt release will serve as an excellent entry point to a whole new perspective on retro synth music.
