Bright track, Kim. Awesome atmosphere of disco and synthpop...

A modern collection of favorite up and coming synth-inspired, retro-inspired pop.

Mad Maverick - Half Forgotten Season (Neaon Remix)

BANDCAMP

LIPSTICK, HIGH HEELS & ANDROID PUSSY

I caught a glimpse of the future; we were older
But I keep failing at all of my attempts to see more 
I took a screenshot and put it in a folder
So I’d remember that we are worth fighting for

I only needed you to know

We never had our chance
It seems like life had other plans
So say you understand 

I only wanted close to you
I needed to be close to you
And everybody knows it’s true
So what am I supposed to do,
Just watch you walk away?

We can’t pretend that our lives are like a movie 
It won’t come easy, we’ve got to put in the work
We may not win but you know you’ll never lose me
I can see clearly what everything we have is worth 

There’s something I need you to know
I tried but I can’t let you go 

I hope I’m not too late
I never meant to make you wait
I’m bound to you by fate 

I only wanted close to you
I needed to be close to you 
And everybody knows it’s true
So what am I supposed to do,
Just watch you walk away?

Damn what I feel 
And every single day I feel it much more
We only needed one more day
We said the same thing yesterday 
But time has made a mockery 
Of everything we planned to be
Still we stay

My love for you will never fade  

Until we get our time
You know you’ll always be on my mind
Until you can be mine 

I only wanted close to you 
(Time is on our side)
And everybody knows it’s true
(Time is on our side)
So what am I supposed to do?
(Time is on our side)
So come and run away with me
(Time is on our side)
I needed to be close to you 
(Time is on our side)
And everybody knows it’s true
(Time is on our side)
So what am I supposed to do?
(Time is on our side)
So come and run away with me
(Time is on our side)
I only wanted close to you 
(Time is on our side)
And everybody knows it’s true
(Time is on our side)
So what am I supposed to do,
(Time is on our side)
Just watch you walk away?

Close to You (Elevate The Sky & Star Madman)

Step into the shadows with “Devil in the House” — a darkwave synth-rock seduction that pulls you into its hypnotic rhythm. Sultry vocals and pulsing analog synths collide with deep bass and electric tension, telling a story of temptation, desire, and surrender. Every beat draws you deeper under her spell as the line between pleasure and danger blurs.

Perfect for fans of cinematic dark synth, retro noir, and late-night sonic rituals — where neon lights flicker, hearts race, and the Devil always gets her due. 🔥
