Various - The Rise Of The Synths The Official Companion Album
Review by John Ramos
"The Rise of the Synths: The Official Companion Album" is a must-have for fans of electronic music and the synthwave genre. Featuring a collection of tracks from various artists, the album is a perfect tribute to the 80s synth-pop era. The album takes listeners on a nostalgic journey through the retro-futuristic sounds of the past, while also incorporating modern elements to create a unique and fresh listening experience.
The tracks on the album are all outstanding, with each artist bringing their unique style to the table. From the pulsating beats of "Night Stalker" by Waveshaper to the dreamy vibes of "Awakening" by OGRE, the album has something for everyone. The standout track, however, is "A Hero's Journey" by Power Glove, which perfectly captures the epic and cinematic feel of the synthwave genre.
The production quality of the album is top-notch, with each track sounding crisp and clear. The album also features some excellent artwork, which perfectly complements the retro-futuristic theme of the album.
