Andy I think Adam was talking about Super Van City.

Le Cassette are the best guests ever.  I could listen to them chat and BS everyday.

this was one of the best episodes of Beyond Synth I remember, great music selection and laughs from the start to the end!

I come here for the technical competence and professionalism and am NEVER disappointed.

FYI - 7th of January cause of different church time (old style vs. new style) So, most of the religious holidays in orthodox church(not only Russia have orthodox church)  is 2 weeks later (Easter, Xmas, etc)

Wake Up! (Feat. Ollie Wride)

A tipical arrangiament and sounds from the 80s

Dip In The 80s

This track has a very special meaning to me, and is my favorite of the new album. I imagine myself laying down and looking up at the stars, thinking about the 80s and all my memories

***
On Friday 25th March 2022, Belgian dreamwave producer The Future Kids released his second album “80s Dreams”, via Outland Recordings, one of the world’s leading synth and retrowave music companies.

80s Dreams is soaked in nostalgia. The album is the accumulation of the Belgian producer's decades long love for synthesizers and electronic music. Since his first album he has managed to forge his own style to honour the synthwave style of the old, while still evolving it with a fresh new sound. Sometimes dreamy, sometimes powerful, the new album draws its inspiration from 80s pop culture and the blockbuster movies of that time.

The Future Kids said of his writing process, “For this album I used a lot of layering techniques, and drum programming more similar to French house with a heavier sound. I put one of my early demos onto a montage of 80s movies, and it just clicked together. At that point I had found the direction I needed to go in, and I found a lot of nostalgic chord progressions and melodies which became the songs that are featured on the album.”

The penchant for synthwave’s chilled sub-genre ‘dreamwave’ is of course strong this year. With cassettes and CDs for The Future Kids’ sophomore album almost sold out, there is no doubt that the old retrowave sound is still alive.

“…A fantastic album of Dreamwave Bliss! The Future Kids does it again with the perfect 80's nostalgia which is a creation of beautiful and uplifting sounds. This music takes me back to my 80's childhood.” – Nick

“Beautiful uplifting dreamwave bliss that is absolutely breathtaking! The Future Kids do it again with music that makes nostalgia a way of life! Thank you for this amazing album!!!” – David

“500 characters are not enough to adequately describe this unique and magical album. The album starts off epic, what follows is dreamwave at its best. 43:29 minutes goosebumps. Sometimes dreamy, sometimes powerful and always perfectly arranged. From the first to the last second a successful masterpiece. In my opinion, this album is already a contender for the title "Album of the Year! The Future Kids has arrived in the Olympus of dreamwaves… I tip my hat to you! Chapeau!” - Tiemo

Voltrana is an album created by Manzur Iqbal / Futurecop! from Manchester, United Kingdom. 

This uplifting album mixes all its previous albums' sounds into one, while adding a new dimension. 

Voltrana keeps its roots by collecting Futurecop! signature "feels" of eighties, childhood memories, innocence, dreams and spiritualism. However what sets the album apart is the new additions of influences ranging from Eastern Mysticism, Zen Buddhism, Inner Universe, Meditation, Eastern 80s pop culture, Mindfulness and fundamentally letting go of the past, and living in the present, a direct opposite to previous messages of Futurecop! music, that longed for the past. 

Musically it features a mix of Futurecop!'s trademark warm and heartfelt synth sounds however this time with a lot of live acoustic instruments, orchestral aspects, a lot of guitar and post-rock influences, eastern instruments with even one of the stand out tracks recorded in a foreign language (Japanese). 

The whole concept of the album was created from the influence of discovering Ancient Eastern culture and spirituality. Zen and Taoism books such as those by Alan Watts to Chaung Tzu, to name a few. All blended together to create a new way of looking at life. Musically it is influenced by orchestral Soundtrack by Vangelis, Joe Hisaishi to Hans Zimmer and 80s Japanese pop music.
