Might be stretching the genera slightly, but found both VHS Collection and Night Travellers yesterday, which are pretty good. In the style of The Midnight.

I think I’ve mentioned Thought Beings before. Their album ‘Explorers’ is excellent.

For me, the tracks to look out for are “Hell or High Water”, “Holiday”, “Alchemy” with “Staying Here” the standout:

Also “Heavenly Body”:

Georgia - About Work The Dancefloor.

She isn't necessarily of the synth-wave genre but this track is, IMO.

New song from The Midnight.

“America Online”. I think it’s one of - if not - the best they’ve released yet.

Must be a new EP or LP coming soon, likely for the summer. Would fit into their pattern of the last few years.

Also, a new band called Siamese Youth have released their debut album recently. Very "The Midnight".

Worth a listen.

A page I follow have recently carried out an interview with them https://www.retro-synthwave.com/music/retro-interv...

Few technical issues but on the whole, exceptional.

Ollie Wride is excellent
