Pathetic Spotify. Killing the music. And the zombies pay for it.
that third track has stutters for me, had to skip it
What’s your email? I had a submission to make
This fake retro. gift shop muzak.
You called?
As a 20 year old who obviously never experienced the 80's, I love this genre because a: It's brilliantly structured and b: Because it is the feeling of hope and positivity distilled into music.
Broo, same. I like the positive vibes this kind of music gives off.
We were living in musical ecstasy in the 80s. Didn’t realize how special it was til about mid 90s when the vibe started fading away. So glad young people have made so much of 80s style music. It brings back all the great memories and feelings ✌️💯🙏🏽🎶
Synthwave is nice music, but Kajagoogoo, The Motels, Foreigner and Journey is the 80s.
Born in 79, there is no era more important to me than the 80s. I’m happy to read your comment. It was a special time.
You missed a good time.
Born in 1980, I had an 80s childhood and a 90s teenage experience. What a time to be alive. I miss it terribly. Went off to college in 1999 and the world changed drastically within a few years. I miss the innocence and ignorance of the pre-internet era.
I agree with you. I'm a year ahead of you, but I know exactly what you mean. There were such high hopes for the internet, but we know what happened. I remember riding bikes with the neighborhood kids before the video game machines took over in the mid 90s. It certainly was a more human experience back in those days.
What a fantastic era to grow up in. I was born in the early 90's so got to experience much of that decade as a kid, but I bet as a teen it would have been even better.
I was a few years ahead of you. What was funny was when I was at school and I was always told that computers were a "fad" and would be all but extinct by the 1990s. Which is really when they came into their own with the rise of the internet. It's weird, but if I sit in front of a non-internet-connected computer these days it feels "dead". I don't think anyone is 1988 was thinking about CZcams or Tinder or even considered them a possibility.
I agree .class of 97 here and yes in a blink of an 👁️ shit changed drastically!😢 I long for these days to come back!
Born a couple years ahead of you! I consider myself blessed to have had a childhood full of happy, distinctively 80s and 90s memories. Now my former home is gone and much of the family have scattered. Doing well, but man, you can't beat those good times.
Went from kid to mid-teen in the 1980's: I miss the neon, the arcades, the music... everything... looking forward to pizza and rootbeer on Fridays at the roller rink. It is difficult not to long for the past when I hear a mix like this. I'm just glad to have lived then so I have these memories.
Now you can do it home with your Xbox or PlayStation or PC, whatever you prefer.
Did you intentionally leave out the cocaine, or were you too young? I myself was too young for that... thanks to McGruff's hit album.
I rem the neon lights at target and some arcades in early 00s. But did this whole synthwave really exist in the 80s? I mean it sorta existed in movies but was it a concrete genre like now?
Also the almost complete absence of out of control massed third world immigration.
Now all you have to look forward to is balding and the grave. Sad!
grew up in the 80s in the uk. we didn't have all the neon and everything that synthwave is associated. Just seemingly unending tory rule, economic downturns, grey miserable weather, and endless drudgery of school and work and poverty. It's kinda amazing that Synthwave exists, it's like music from a childhood so many of us never got to experience, that was stolen from us, but brought back through time. I think that's why the sensation of nostalgia brought by these modern tracks feels so strange. We feel like we're back where we OUGHT to have been, when we know full well we never existed in the world these tracks ostensibly emulate.
We should make a world where this music IS the childhood for many, with its bright neon lights and strange, beautiful, peaceful places, where they can flourish and make the world better with every step. We should be striving for a world for everyone that is filled with joy, where everyone can have peace.
Oh and before anybody starts cozying up to this message in the hopes that they can do "yeah! Those damn leftists being all intolerant of alternative views and politics why can't we all just get along!" I want to make it extremely, extremely EXTREMELY clear that such a world by definition requires fascism and bigotry and exploitation and imperialism to be absolutely exterminated and destroyed. Because until they are gone, no such world of peace and growth and harmony can EVER exist. It will be strangled, choked, murdered, and it's still bloody skin worn by the fascists to pretend they're on your side and everything is fine. They will sell you slavery, and tell you it's freedom.
FUCK FASCISM. destroy it at all costs, by any means necessary. Or it will destroy you.
Peace out.
Brilliant words my friend, I hope for this as well
I feel like you cracked some kind of code for why I like these genres of art. The childhood we never had...in this wasteland of callousness and capitalism, we never stop dreaming. The fervency of passion drives us to be architects of a more resilient future. We have the curse and gift of living in a transitional age. The world is our puzzle and we have a deep hunger to solve puzzles, to see a world unseen.
because UK
In the USA, we actually had this privileged pastel neon life for a time. This is nostalgic for me because I DID live it. The fondest moments that flood back through the music. It was not only a simpler time but a more innocent time. Our generation escaped war and enjoyed an era of ease and comfort and relative security. We were naive to the ills and injustices that had come before or would soon return. We knew we had it good but, by the ignorance and confidence of youth, we simply believed it would never end. I'm sad for anyone who lived through these times and had those amazing feelings stolen from them by their circumstance or geography. I hope you can enjoy the glowing embers of it now frozen in the art for what it's worth and the promise it still symbolizes for the eternal optimists among us now. Know it was not just a fantasy. For a single fleeting beautiful moment in time, the dream was real.
This mix has the “ everything is gonna be alright” type of vibe
Yes, it does. Very comforting.
I love comment sections like this, where everyone has chosen to be kind
I feel like the positivity of the 80s was from the budding seeds of technologies starting to enrich our lives in the right proportions without distracting us from it or enabling instant gratification of everything for everyone all the time. It was a naive time of hope and premature understanding of how technology would truly impact the world, and that's why we viewed the 'future' as such a wonderful beautiful thing full of possibilities. And I think that's why retrofuturism is such a thing now. People are nostalgic about what they thought the future would be like and the hope we had because now we've seen where we ended up and we want to rewind it back. Because the actual future didn't measure up to the versions we dreamed up back then.
This is such a true way to look at it. Things are a mess these days in a really crummy way.
that and the cocaine
Well said
Music like this doesn't make me nostalgic for a specific decade...more like feelings and moments in my youth. And, strangely, temperature. Heat and warmth, humidity and moisture.
I realize now why a lot of synthwave imagery has to do with cars and driving. These songs transport me back to summer nights with my friends, driving at night with the windows down, humidity on my face and in my lungs, feeling the streetlights flashing by behind my closed eyes. Not a care in the world, no smartphones keeping us constantly connected to the wider world, no notifications to remind us of the existence of anyone but ourselves. Anything and everything felt possible. We could have driven with no direction till we ran out of gas, our only goal to escape the tedium of our small town, to experience something and someplace new, and it would have been an adventure, the greatest night of our lives.
Being an adult brings its own freedoms, but always weighed down by commitments to jobs, homes, other people. I still experience these moments, but less frequently. More recently, visiting friends in Orlando, in the backseat of the car, heading home from a night out on the town. Three of us crammed into the backseat, I'm warm and hazy from the alcohol, sitting next to my friend-who's-more-than-a-friend, leaning my head on his shoulder and his head on mine. My friend is driving and The Midnight is playing on the speakers.
I want to bottle these moments so I can revisit them forever, but I can't, so synthwave mixes will have to do.
I wrote this while listening to "Echo" by Timecop1983.
Felt very identified with your depiction of nostalgia. I also tend to romanticize the mundane a lot, and make little things special. The best moments in life tend to be only memories huh.
I guess i´ll never learn to live in the moment.
Perfect summary, good you can still enjoy those type of moments in your present life. I've long forgotten how it feels, this kind of music being the only reminder
I really loved how you said it. Disconnecting from outer world & other people is the best feeling ever. You delight in evey small moments including temperature & other mundane moments like sun shine . The Internet & world consensus doesn't tell you what to enjoy & what to value in your private life. You make that. Free of consenus... You are your own consenus.
Well written. I could appreciate your feelings and the stories we shared, though not the same stories but different from different people.
yes thank you
I hate how so many retail businesses have gotten rid of their neon signs and decor. These days everything has the aesthetic of a hospital waiting room.
the eternal apple store of hell
I have a project with a client that feels this too. He just yelled at the architect for making the "best looking hospital"; it's supposed to be a wedding venue being built lol.
We all want to go back to when everything seemed like it would last forever.
That’s just it. Things felt so awesome in the 80s and we didn’t even consider that things would change so quickly.
@@-zak-3452 I was born in the 90s but am always at awe for the vibe the 80s had.
The cyclical nature of history means the "80's" will return one day. It won't be called the 80's anymore, but the vibe will return, as it has returned many times throughout history, the people are just no longer around to remember those decades. To me the 80's represent a healthy balance of nature and technology, when mankind was a slave to neither. Don't worry, the 80's will come back again, maybe not for us, but our grandchildren.
So many of these comments are so terrific and deep. What a place where so many brilliant minds are called to just simply come and chill.
i agree
Couldn't agree with you more!
This is such an amazing collection of songs. I grew up in the 80s and there was just this amazing feeling of being thrown back into my youth listening to these songs. I remember the music, the movies, the time before cellphones and internet being so ubiquitous. But I mostly remember being a kid swimming, playing on the beach, riding bikes with friends, exploring the sands and the woods. I remember being happy and carefree watching wrestling with my Dad on TV. Pizza Hut restaurants with the red glasses and indoor smoking! Wow.
Thanks for the nostalgic trip through my childhood.
Awesome!!!
@@OdysseusOfficial
I am Gen Z and your memories are beautiful and I envy your way of spending time without the internet.
@@user-wj9eu4zn2k - Quite honestly I am happy the Internet exists! But there are days I will purposefully "log off" and go a few days without it. I find it as a great way to appreciate the world around me in a different way. Plus, I'm not always glued to my screen. You can do the same thing, friend!
@Eole Herbefolle Same, I played World of Warcraft and Counter Strike: Source through my childhood ;)
Seeing the arcade, neon shifting lights, and 🌴 palm trees 🌴- times do change, but Odysseus's good vibes are forever. *EDIT. THERE'S A BALL-PIT SLIDE. IT'S GETTING MORE NOSTALGIC*
How old are you? If you don't mind the question.
@@zisseusgraventaar5838 probably older than you, my good friend
@@zisseusgraventaar5838 An age old question- one would just say "a number". It's a question best left unanswered unless necessary (work, filing, account sign-up, etc.) Since it can lead to unfair grouping or a straight-up being a security risk. So, a number #️⃣
@@zisseusgraventaar5838 ??? People can come from 3rd world countries and have the same nostalgia as millennials
I grew up watching space toon lmao. Thats peek nostalgia
@@NotVeryNormal Nah, I’m ABSOLUTELY SURE I’m older than you, SON
I love it when you go to search for a synthwave and chillwave mix to listen to and then you find a new mix has just been released by Odysseus.
I'm pretty sure if you're not subbed, you're not living life to the fullest.
Slurpin' on Odysseus' schlong unapologetically.
@@RichardHartness indeed
I love it when he drops a new mix too! I think Aeolus makes synthwave chillwave content too!
This makes me cry. Not because I grew up in this era, it's because i didn't. This era, you could go hang out with friends casually, you could go to these amazingly fun places and not worry about it too much. Now everything is so overwhelming, and there is nowhere to relax or have fun with friends anymore. It's sad, and it makes me so angry there isn't a place I have to enjoy time with my friends without spending a crap ton of money for it.
Get this. I used to work at a clothing store at a mall in the 80's and WE could choose what music cassette tape to play! We played everything from OMD to Roger and Zapp. We sang and danced half the time even while helping customers. Now it's all corporatized.
real
@@tlome8033 now that appeals to me o_O
They're supposed to come over and play Wii and SNES emulators but everybody just wants to just sit there and watch tiktok and use Facebook as a barrier to keep you from actually being in their life while letting you pretend you are.
You can still hang out with friends without worrying too much, and withouth spending big money. Maybe you just need friends like you. I used to go to the park and spend the whole evening with friends, simply playing the guitar, singing songs, having beer, snacking... and it was like... 10 years ago? Now we are in our 30s and it's true that people at this age are not into this kind of plans any longer, but if you're young, just go out and enjoy your friends company. Sitting on the grass is still free :)
I’m a 90s kid and there something that feels so nostalgic and safe with this vibe.
Synthwave music has such a unique way of unlocking old childhood memories. Sitting here tonight listening to this, I'm thinking about how my mom used to take me with her to K-Mart in the mid 90's to go get her Kodak camera pictures developed. There was a guy named Tom who worked in the camera department who would always put out his hand to me for a high five, and right after he would pretend to stumble backwards as if I actually had the strength to make him fall backwards as a little kid, and it always made me laugh so hard. And then we would listen to Dr. Seuss stories on cassette tapes in the car while on the way to garage sales after getting lunch with the warm summer air rushing in the the rolled down windows of the ole mini van. I didn't realize how magical those days were in the moment. I am so grateful that I got to experience those times, but it hurts so much to remember them..
It hurts to remember any "Happy Time" or any "Bad Time" I am aching just listening to this music but, it hurts good.
Nice memories... thanks for sharing them. My mom passed in 2021 and memories are even more precious than ever.
I close my eyes as this starts playing and I’m transported to highway 1, driving alongside the pacific coast. It’s a golden sunset and the seagulls are lazily gliding overhead while the wind streaks through my hair. The warm glow of the sun comforts me and the sounds of the waves crashing sooth me.
I'm surfing the wind with my hand outside the window next to you, eyes closed...
@@lulumoon6942 That made me cry. 😭😭😭
mhm yep I gotta get a convertible. Would be a waste to be in California without one.
Maybe a Firebird? We'll see ;)
In grade school, around ‘85, my friend Brian said when we were college-aged we should go in half-and-half and buy a red Ferrari GTS and take turns picking up chicks with it.
I still talk W him regularly.
San Francisco in the late 70's
My favorite on this one is Krosia - Azur 11:20 . Once that one comes on it goes hard for the whole time. Very energetic.
Thank you so much for the feature Odysseus 💙💙💙
Enjoying this and feeling sad about it simultaneously. The two sides of the nostalgia coin.
I grew up in the 80s and I feel the same way. Miss the old days and the way things were.
That yellow spill sign by the Pepsi machine is perfection...it is so strange how ordinary things can feel like heaven sometimes
It's that little bit of added authenticity. :-) Every water park or swimming pool, even the upscale ones with the faux marble columns like that always had a yellow "Wet Floor" sign out for liability reasons if there was tile anywhere in the vicinity
I am digging the new visual aesthetic. From minimalist graphics to more liminal nostalgia. Really adds to the vibe
Released on my 50th Birthday. Of course its Nostalgia. Love it.
best wishes.
Belated Happy Birthday 🎂 🥳 🎉 🎈 🎁 🎊
To everyone reading this comment. Good luck in everything you do. May you fly high in life and success is always with you. Good luck to you💜
Thanks ❤ that’s so sweet. I needed to hear that. Wishing you love and success too! We need more of this in the world 🙂
🤍🤍🤍
i appreciate you, likewise.
💓
thank you!
Pink and blue arcades, blank and empty indoor poolrooms, Old-Pepsi logo.... 90's iMac! I CAN'T TAKE IT!!! 😍🤤😭
Love you Odysseus! Totally rad, as usual!
As I didn't live in the 80's (I'm 19) I feel little nostalgia, but what I have always associated with the genre is unrelenting optimism bringing general hope for a bright future, but the suspended chords often used add an air of melancholy on certain tracks that brings both this hope and a sadness from the knowledge that it never really was that optimistic and never could be. Forlorn optimism. Imagination.
Never lose hope. That's the first ingredient for changing for the better. 💝
superbly written and wise beyond your years...seek the best in what the past has to offer 🙏🏻
It is my firm belief that the vaporwave/ synthwave/ chillwave community is one of the best on CZcams! Everyone is so kind and wants to vibe. We are all feeling sentimental and nostalgic for a time that doesn’t exist anymore.
what makes the early 80s stand out is just the explosion of musical creativity driven by electronic music styles, and one was having fun without internet or pcs or cell phones...that brings friends together more because all we had were walkmans and atari lol ....like we would get together just to listen to the latest music ...but now when do kids get together to listen to music? everything now is just in your earpods
Sometimes i hate the algorithm for reading me like an open book, but other times i see gems like these and thank the algorithm for showing me a gem like this
Fuck, that sample at 12:21 hit me with such a nostalgic feeling, I remember hearing it in a song way back in 2014, when me and my friends were in high school, learning about vaporwave and future funk, beautiful memories, time does move pretty fast
That's from Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986). Great quote that I've heard sampled across different genres. You really do have to stop and look around once and a while.
"Way back in 2014" Lmao I don't think that's the year this video was going for, but oy gavult, I'm old
Oh wait, I was in high school in 2014. We're roughly the same age
43:12 My older brother and I were kids in by the mid 90s, but our childhood was of course much influenced by the 80s cartoons and toys. I still remember my older brother playing Mario Bros on his Famicom while I excitedly watched. I also loved the vibes and neon lights of the malls. Then watching movies at night like Goonies and Star Wars. This fantastic mix just brings back all those great memories and it just aches a whole lot more with my older brother passing away last year.
I'm deeply sorry for loose brother
You'll see him again, and it will feel amazing. Be strong! 💝
Bro u described almost my childhood with my older brother, he was from mid 80s and i was 90s, he passed 2 years ago. We always played videogames like mario bros, street fighter, etc i just spend time watching him playing. I miss him so much broooooooo i know how u feel!! I give u a strong hug!!
Thanks for the Support Odysseus 👍🥰
No problem 😊
Your music slaps bro

As a disney child, who's now an adult facing hardships, I truly appreciate this ❤ it keeps the child in me warm and happy. Have a good night's sleep everyone.
me too!♡
These types of songs remind me just how much humanity has changed in the 20th century… and makes me nervous for the rest of the 21st century
40 this year. God I miss that brief period I was alive in the 80s. ❤️
This is so nostalgic for me and really takes me back to my childhood. Like so many others here, I grew up in the 80s. I'll never forget working in my dad's factory as a message boy, the bright electric lights on the Christmas tree in the town square, the day the Statue of Liberty was built, and reading about that scoundrel Jack the Ripper. It really was an amazing time to be alive. Except of the lack of child labor laws, of course.
Thank you for sharing!!
1880s huh 🙄
I was born in 1970, a een in the 80's. This is fake retro junk. Yeah, it 'sounds" 80's, bu it's not 80's. It sounds like the 'muzak' they play in elevators and shopping malls.
None of this is stuff people deliberately listened to.
@@peterbelanger4094 Of course not. This is designed to appeal to people now who want to feel nostalgic about a "then" that never really was. It's like looking back with "rose-tinted glasses", where everything was better "back in the day." People think it's and they think Miami Vice, but forget that that show was designed to have a particular look. The aesthetic wasn't natural. Same thing here. Particular aesthetic elements combine to make people think "80's."
Child labor laws put money in your pocket--don't lie. We all know you'd never have two shillings to rub together if you weren't allowed to stitch those boots in that factory.
There's something magical with synthwave. Listening to this makes me feel nostalgic, yet...I was born in the 90's. I have never lived the 80's, so I have nothing to be nostalgic about. Yet, I still feel it. The raw nostalgia from that music, that euphoric feeling associated with precious memories, this sense of wonder. It's incredible.
Same here, I was born in 1991, but don't underestimate how long the 80's lasted in the 90's, if you know what I mean. Like colourful 80's-style murals on playgrounds or in the IKEA.
My parents stayed in the 80's style for a long time, the music kept being played on the radio and especially if you didn't get all the 'fancy new stuff' as a kid, then your life was a mishmash of 70's, 80's and some cheap 90's stuff.
Because everything that wasn't hip in the 90's (like 80's stuff) would be on sale and cheaper, youknow? My parents definitely did not purchase hip clothes for me, we didn't have the money (and it was useless, because I'd grow out of those within months.)
So, you definitely enjoyed the 80's, just not in the same way the 80's kids did.
I got born in the 2000s, it happens to me too
no dude us 90s kids were the last no cell phone-kids era. we are the last of a cultural species that can live without it.
theres nostalgia to doing dishes with my mom and jamming out to NSYNC and backstreet boys with my siblings. riding bikes and playing in the forest.
all the 90s trendy candy foods, and McDonald's with ball pits and N64's.
SO MUCH to be nostalgic about.
- Signed, a 1993 baby
The stuff they're doing now with the 80's vibes is way better than the actual 80's synth stuff.
I’m early 2000s and I feel you bro. Living those years through my dad and I really miss it all. I wanna go back.
im gen z, and this music is my childhood, im 16, turning 17 this year, and im so glad to have this kind of music nowadays, synthwave and lofi have gotten me through so damn much
You know, these shots, music, logotype in the corner, all this video feels like a long scene while installing a really cool game that you’ve waited to play for a long time. And it’s not just a game, but rather some another state of consciousness that is downloading right in your head and you’re dreaming and awake at the same time while listening to this stunning music with a great desire to be in all these places right after the end of loading…
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City
It’s the smell of a mall and it’s indoor fountain, a movie theatre hallway, an arcade, car seat leather 😊
I only remember snippets of the latter half of the 1990s, but the whole neon arcade, laser-tag arena, mall vibe takes me back to what I remember of that time, even though the images in this video are not real and depict a place that never was real. Nostalgia is a powerful thing that's fascinating and hard to understand.
Not real you say? For example 35:05 is the customer service area at Concord Mall in Elkhart, IN. The colors are obviously edited but im sure most if not all of the images came from real life.
Mayne nostalgia is how your mind can possibly twist a memory into fantasy thanks to enough time elapsed.🤔
Oh my god
I'm really enjoying this. The idea of hotels being nostalgic is kind of crazy until you realize you've probably gone on family vacations and stayed in many of them. Swimming in the hotel pool seems to be a big part of those memories. The long hallways too.
Agreed!
Exactly… I try to swim the pool at every hotel I go to, preferably at 6 am or for sunset so I can have it all to myself
The nostalgia hits hard with this music. The older I get, the more I miss the 80s. It was such an energetic, hopeful period. I'm grateful to have lived in those times. Many happy memories.
Hi, this is me, a random and unknown person you don’t know. You prob don’t care about this comment, but I want to write me a little letter to my version of the future. I’m missing 1 year of school till graduation, so I want to remember this comment and come back when I graduate and when I’m finally done with school. I just don’t want this comment to get lost, you’re free to ignore it, but I used this music while it was still the pandemic and I did my homework, so I want to remember my past (me), because this can be considered as my teenage music haha. Thank you, have a great day/night.
Thank you for this🙌 come back to the video in 1 year and tag me 😃
May this notification be a reminder for you to come back and listen again :)
don't forget to come back soon! c:

Hopefully it’s a 90s sporty shit box you can throw around corners😝
'90s baby here, but 80s synthwave has always been my fave kind of music, no matter what since spotify came out I always gravitated to this type of music. The power it has to make you feel nostalgic about a time period you've never been is so incredibly astounding and amazing to me. I've always wished I could've grown up in the 80s, it seemed like such a magical, carefree, simpler time. :')
'90s baby here as well. Idk why but I love music between the era of the '70s to early 2000s. Maybe I'm being being nostalgic or romantizing the life that I never experience 😅
well, atleast now you wont have the fear of dying to nuclear bombs.
I needed this today, my cat is not feeling well and this helped me calm my anxiety.
I hope the kitty gets better and is all healthy!
@@stevez4975 He was found to have a severe UTI which blocked his urinary tract. His bladder was only moments away from rupturing but the vet did the surgery in time. They found his Kidneys had failed… we thought he was going to die, but his kidneys started coming back the next day. Now, as of Thursday he is back home like nothing happened.
@@SnacksDeCarGuy my advice is to get him off dry food immediately if he's on it, speaking from experience. Don't even feed the dry urinary stuff or anything the vet prescribed. It's junk. Dave's cat food sells a limited ingredient wet food (Amazon) that limits the ingredients which can form crystals. I put my kitty on that (and switch now between that and Nulo canned) and gave some natural urinary supplements for a few months. UROMAXX urinary, kidney and bladder formula (Amazon). I also put him on the urinary tract support kit by "two crazy cat ladies". The vet told me my cat would have problems for life and they would be seeing me again soon. They didn't tell me to do what I'm telling you to do, they told me things that would keep him sick. I took his health into my own hands and it's been 3 years now. He's fine!
What a self esteem boost reading things like this is. What a wet noodle.
Thank you! A few of the images took me back to family vacations in Florida in the 80s. Specifically the mall at night.
Awesome!! 😃
12:20 OWWWW so painfully nostalgic. Classic movie and the dude is like 50 now. Why do we have to age?
as much as i love my hard and crazy music like phonk and heavy metal, i always love coming back to synthwave for a nice change of pace
As an 80s child, I really appreciate this channel. Im already following because it captures the escence of that era. Even though I was 5 years old when the 80s ended I still have a lot of memories primarly in music.
"But it gets increasingly more nostalgic" and I already feel like crying for a time I never got to live on Coastal Drive
Nostalgia is the new opiate of the masses
Being in my mid 30's I'm so glad I grew up when I did to see it come back in a different way is amazing reminds me of the old days. I wouldn't change it for anything.
This one hit. It hit like an emotional punch. The sounds with the choice in art takes me places.
Awesome to hear! :)
I'm shifting homes right now, almost finished with my masters that started in 2020 just as covid was hitting hard.
Our entire batch had a very different, almost surreal experience as we hardly know each other.
This music just makes me more nostalgic for the past, the lost possibilities, and the things we actually have and gained.
Thanks for the mix Odysseus :')
Thank you for sharing!!
Fauxvid never really hit hard, just the fear mongering propaganda that went with it.
There will never be another era like it.
Love this. We are having a heatwave here in the U.K. and this is perfect for having on in the car and cruising with the roof down on a hot night to go get a cold drink and an ice cream from the drive thru.
Synthwave and heatwave, name a more iconic duo
Amazing mix as always, love it so much!!!
the Freddy Fazbear statue caught me off guard lmao
Anyone else find some of these images unsettling? It’s got this uncanny valley effect for me where it doesn’t feel quite right.
You're experiencing what is known as liminality. Liminal spaces often induce feelings of overwhelming, and confusion. Liminal space is a very interesting concept!
idk for me those places just look calming and inviting
For me its not just the sounds but also the lovely art depicting the colors, textures, sights and sounds of what it was like to be alive in the 80s and early 90s. The neon, the interior designs of the theaters and shopping malls along with the smooth tones of the music really do take me back to those days which was worlds different than what we live today.
Born in ‘85. definitely reminds me of my childhood!
70/80s was really the Golden era. All GenX ppl put your hands up!!! 🎉🎉
Dude if someone made a mod for Security Breach that just played this music throughout that would be awesome
yoo thats a sick idea
it would be cool
Security Breach, is that a game?
@@thomasfrivold1380 Yes it's FNAF 9
Brilliant idea man!
@@thomasfrivold1380 a very awaited game that was absolutely terrible, so full of problems both in gameplay and story that it almost made me cry to watch a youtuber play
But the ambience, the art direction and such is actually great. Is beautiful and it hits right the synthwave aesthetic most of the time
I wanted to play it for that alone, but the game was like R$120, 80gb and needs a NASA level computer to atleast run
i think that this is nostalgic because we are all remembering the good times before the internet became a massive part of society such as the 90s and 80s where synths where used, this captures that 80s aesthetic but using modern technology that shows off how technology is rooted it's self into society for good and that these songs are an escape back to the past. Even for me who never experiences the 80s nor 90s but early 2000s, I still can feel the message behind the instruments. I think vaporwave and sub genres really shows that the internet is something good for the worst, even though the internet created these master pieces of reminiscence.
Taking a walk in the rain while this is playing in the background is probably one of the best feelings ever.
Vaourwave portrait of SONY Walkman is just so appropriate here.
As someone who was born in the late 90's that grew up with old school music (especially the 80's), this is some of the best music in the world! I love synthwave!
I often feel nostalgic about something I haven't experienced and one of the reasons is songs from that genre, it's like it's part of me
I can relate to this too 🙌
15:25 I LOVE THIS
as a tropical enjoyer this is beautiful
Those glitches in the 3rd track are extremely aggravating. Breaks any nostalgia for me and underscores yet again why we moved on from analog tech. Same thing for the tape wobble in track 6. Too much of a good thing... you know the rest.
Thanks for including me in your mix 🙏
Nothing is greater than listening to synth wave music while laying in a dark air conditioned room with cyan and magenta colored lights.
I agree 🥰
I need to do this at work tomorrow
This guy gets it
argueably the most enjoyable experience
Didn't expect a FNAF screenshot to pop up in an Odysseus video, made my evening!
This the best mix you’ve done in a while man. Both the music and image selections are perfect👌🏻
love it, well done
Thank you! 🙏
@@OdysseusOfficial love you!!
The Holy Spirit is with Odysseus
Something about like a neon arcade or liminal space type vibe, It makes me forever young as I felt as a little kid at the arcade, Just filled with amazement and awe
Though I've never lived through the 80s, as a 22-year-old, I'm drawn to this genre for its exceptional structure and the sense of hope it embodies in every beat ❤🩹❤🩹❤🩹
This reminds me of my childhood. Every Wednesday night was pizza night. We would pack into the van and go to Round Table Pizza. I would beg for quarters for the arcade, drink rootbeer, and eat cheese pizza. Good times. :D
In the van? Surely your family owned a convertible Ferrari Testarossa or a DeLorean like everyone that lives in the imaginary Synthwave world.
@@AutPen38 LOL. Nah, my family had a boxy Toyota van. Goofy looking but dependable as hell. I absolutely WANTED a DeLorean though.
Listening to this on a Friday night while reading my Ramona Quimby books.. man, I feel like a kid again.
Synthwave always reminds me of southern CA west coast freeway systems at night. Cruising the PCH, 101, 405, 134, 118, 210, 10, 5 …
This video takes the mesmerizing genre of Synthwave and elevates it to new heights by adding an immersive dose of nostalgia. As the video progresses, the nostalgic elements intensify, immersing viewers in a wave of memories and emotions.
The stunning visuals perfectly complement the Synthwave soundtrack, transporting us back to an era defined by neon lights, retro arcade games, and VHS tapes. The skillful editing and seamless transitions create a captivating journey through time, unveiling layers of nostalgia with each passing moment.
The carefully selected clips and imagery evoke a sense of longing for the past, triggering memories of classic movies, iconic pop culture references, and the innocence of our youth. It's a true testament to the power of music and visuals in capturing and amplifying our emotions.
Whether you grew up during the Synthwave era or not, this video will undoubtedly leave you feeling a bittersweet nostalgia, making it a must-watch for anyone seeking an immersive and evocative experience. So sit back, relax, and let the waves of synths and nostalgia wash over you.
Love this, thank you🌊
The images and music I would say are definitely a combination of the 80s and the 90s. I was born in 92 but so much of this is still very familiar to me.
I gotta say, I'm absolutely in love with this concept for mixes. Music that evolves like that, feels almost cinematic, and it might open the door for introducing even other genres!
grew up in the mid 90s
I am so farr off into the future but I really love the amazing feeling of going back to the past with songs like these.
I remember them days when I was just a lil one.. between 5-9 ...
When I used to get my ass whooped !
My parents would be mad at each other for some random shit and I was the perfect excuse for them.
I am in my 27s now .. haha O'man !
that shit makes me rethink a lot of things. things I would never do to my kids. different mentality, different mindset.
Man if you made these lists available in Spotify... Youd be king
Will work on it 👍

@@OdysseusOfficial woah!!! This is awesome man!
Odysseus thank you for posting more than usual while still remaining high quality as always.
Of course🙏
Woah, didn't expect to see the mall from my hometown at 15:12. The CZcams algo must know more about me than I thought...
Im 54 and grew up with Opera music because my mom was West German and loved opera in Germany. I love a little bit of every kind of music.
Yo, that’s wild! Like, you’re out here with the opera vibes, and your mom was all about that German opera scene? Respect. And, like, I feel you - I’m into all kinds of music too. Keep rocking those eclectic tunes, OG!
The title didn't lie, it's extremely nostalgic ^^ Thanks for an awesome mix!
what a good playlist. quiet for breakfast in the morning / to travel on the bus. and for melancholy nights. greetings from Argentina 🇦🇷
holy crap, i remember studying in my early middle years with this music, now i revisit it on a rainy night in the middle of the week, its kinda nostalgic, brings back some memories...
As 44 y.o., excellent playlist selection and the scenes are perfect to match the nostalgic memories of a kid from the 80s and a teen in the 90s. Thanks!
Im 23 now and listening to synth music always makes me think bout being born in the wrong century haha, I love it hope it comes back to the trends soon. Pure hope and positivity in those tuney
pretty sure this is all modern music. Synthwave is a modern genre
Thank you for the feature! It's been a while! 💙
Of course🙌🙌
The thumbnail is Amazing
This music reminds me of something vaguely familiar....like in a video game i used to play back in the 90s but i cant put a name to it.
