I have a huge appreciation towards Eric Alfred Leslie Satie (born 1866, died 1925). I like to play his compositions on piano and this is one of my renditions.

Gymnopédie No 1 (A nod to Satie)

Miami Chill, The Early Years

Passing lights

Voyage To The Arcade

Yet another track that was about to be unreleased just because of lack of time, self-esteem and self-respect... unmastered, like the rest of them. I hope you like it...

The Luminous Flux

When you stay up, think about life and realize there's still hope. 'Through the Night' is a story about sleepless nights and lights of the quiet streets.

End Of The Journey

Time Runner

My dear father passed away on 15th of January, 2019 after battling over two years of prostate cancer. I started composing this song in around December or January when I already kind of knew what's going to happen. I don't remember much but crying and thinking of dad and this melody came to me from somewhere. When dad died, I didn't have any energy to create anything and after 8 months I finally got it done. Dad believed that he and I are eternal, so I named the song Eternal as well.

Despite using my favourite synths, this is far from my regular SYNTHWAVE stuff. This is a pure product of emotion and hurt and I want to share it with you. Sometimes you just have to pour it out.

Composed, mixed and mastered by me, Roni Laukkarinen.

Dad, this is for you, I hope you hear the song in Heaven.

Eternal

I actually started composing this track on summer 2018 but never got it out because of my insecurities. I haven't got much out during 2020 although I have many songs "near-done". This is one of those songs that I meant to release earlier and not when "it's too late". What this means is that I no longer find any worth in these sounds but here you go. At least it's out now. Composed in couple of days, mixed during 10 months, mastered in couple of hours, artwork in 10 minutes. I hope you like it but it is also okay to hate it.

Untitled VHS

Streetgazer is an independent dreamwave/synthwave artist, a zeek (80s nerd/loner, unpopular kid at school) with low self-esteem, constantly learning synthwave musician from Finland. Emerging from the same town with acts like Nightstop and Ferus Melek, Streetgazer was formed in 2017 after persuasion of numerous musician-friends of his. Gazing to the streets since the 80s, inspired by video games, 80s fashion and movie/series soundtracks like in Miami Vice, he started to create music with his favourite instrument: synthesizer.

Roads, neon lights, cars passing by and rainy skies. The silent hero, Streetgazer seeks the right streets with worm holes to travel back in time to the eighties and getting back with immersive, dreamy synth music.

Streetgazer is fully in love with 80s synths and blurry neon lights. Hugely inspired by 80s synth pop and modern acts like The Midnight, Sunglasses Kid, Timecop1983 and Lazerhawk.
