NOISE DESIGN – THE THING — ’80S MYSTICAL SOUNDTRACK

Sonic Architects Series – Neon Dread & Analog Pulse

Noise Design presents ‘The Thing’ — a retro sci-fi/horror soundtrack toolkit in the spirit of late-’70s/early-’80s cinema. Paying tribute to the mood and minimalism of John Carpenter and George A. Romero — and modern homages like Stranger Things — it focuses on pulse, tension and atmosphere rather than pastiche.

Recorded from original vintage hardware synthesizers — Oberheim Matrix-12, Roland Juno-60, Roland Jupiter-4, Moog Voyager — and treated with hardware compressors and tape echoes (Roland Chorus Echo RE-301, Roland Space Echo RE-150), the material pairs authentic analogue character with modern clarity.

Expect ominous drones, pulse-driven bass ostinatos, detuned string pads, eerie arpeggios and siren leads, plus analogue noise beds and tension risers. 

The analogue path brings warmth, wow & flutter and grain; careful mixing and sound design keep everything tidy and arrangement-ready. Use it to score paranoia, mystery and midnight neon — or to thread a cinematic edge through electronica and dark wave.

Stranger Synth - Missing Call (Synthwave)

Douglas Black- Terra Firma (Modus Novum Unofficial Remix) [Capital Heaven]

STRANGER DISCO

“Midnight Montage” is Fireye’s cinematic dive into the retro-future. Layered with pulsing synth bass, shimmering arpeggios, and a steady disco-inspired groove, the track feels like it was pulled straight out of an ‘80s movie sequence. It’s the sound of neon-lit streets, headlights cutting through fog, and fleeting moments strung together like snapshots in time.
 
Equal parts nostalgic and modern, “Midnight Montage” could underscore a late-night drive, a training sequence, or a surreal dream scene. It balances danceable energy with moody atmosphere, making it a perfect soundtrack for anyone chasing that Stranger Things-era vibe.

Midnight Montage

Wynona Rider

Couldn´t stop myself from eventually do  a vocal to my instrumental Will Byers (BMX) even though I said I never would. So happy Halloween and hope you enjoy this scary theme.

Running Away

Wrote it for Debra Gaynor from "The Flirts"! Check out her version too. bit more "modern" pop, well modern at the time many moons ago now. 

Butterfly

About drug and sex addiction. Who/what is Tina? Wrote it about a friend and his partner while I was living in London.

Self-made music to jam and rock to; the ultimate DIY experience: All instruments and production by Wes Henry. Material sourced in the same artistic vein as how the Grateful Dead served Garcia's favorite songs from before and during his time, often literally featuring from the Dead's songbook. Other selections from punk and hard rock genres tend to slow up and take on new feels. Those from easier and softer genres tend to gain more edge in their reinterpretations. Original music and songs are also among The Cooler Etiquette catalogue.
"You have the power. You have the groove. You have the feeling. We've been working on it for almost 30 years," Grateful Dead drummer Mickey Hart said. "So what are you going to do with it? That's the question. You take your Dead-heads home, and you do something with all this because we didn't do this for nothing."
