Chic elegant retro pop has a champion in the Rolipso remix of Light from I Want Poetry. This sensual German cinematic dream pop duo reflectively bridges the gap between Lana Del Rey and Florence Welsh with some added champagne pop brilliance.
Rolipso amplifies some already present retro pop vibes and bends them elegant electro in the spirit of CHVRCHES and London Grammar. We can dig it.
Light (Rolipso Remix) is featured on our Best New Synthwave Playlist.
Retro flavored producer Paultra Violet presents their most sincere work yet with Year Of Sweat. Known to us for his smart eccentric post punk induced retro pop, Year Of Sweat adapts his aura with chic noir appeal.
As a producer his arrangements are consistently intriguing, but Year Of Sweat offers a new emotive range. This dark sensual retro electro pop speaks to us. Stylistically he elegantly bridges the gap between Tears for Fears, Depeche Mode, and Human League. We love it.

Llynks and LukHash team up on the seductively dark breakthrough hit Maybe. Synthwave has been known for its darkwave tendencies but an influence of dark pop has almost never felt so prevalent. It’s still hauntingly nostalgic, resonating with iconic hits like Madonna’s Like A Prayer. It’s an untraveled realm in retrofuturism and one that we endorse emphatically. The production is on point but it’s Llynks convincing vocal performance that truly lands iconic. Maybe is a sure thing.

Retrowave has recently travelled into dubstep realms but producer Artificial Image offers an exciting alternative. Their new single On A Sunday Afternoon, You Are A Dream blends an influence of electronic pop with progressive appeal. The work is both groovy and cinematic, never to be misunderstood as mainstream, but captivating enough to stand out beyond the realm of background track.
Without a doubt, Artificial Image is absolutely a vibe you can get lost in. Stylistically they bridge the gap between Moby and The Midnight.
