Synthwave (also called outrun, retrowave, or futuresynth[5]) is an 電子音樂 microgenre that is based predominantly on the music associated with action, science-fiction, and horror film soundtracks of the 1980s.[2] Other influences are drawn from the decade's art and video games.[3] Synthwave musicians often espouse nostalgia for 1980s culture and attempt to capture the era's atmosphere and celebrate it.[9]
The genre developed in the mid-to late 2000s through French house producers, as well as younger artists who were inspired by the 2002 video game 俠盜獵車手:罪惡城市. Other reference points included composers 約翰·卡本特, 让-米歇尔·雅尔, 范吉利斯 (especially his score for the 1982 film 银翼杀手), and 橘夢樂團. Synthwave reached wider popularity after being featured in the soundtracks of the 2011 film 亡命驾驶 (which included some of the genre's best-known songs), 2012 videogame 迈阿密热线, 2017 film 雷神索爾3:諸神黃昏 and the Netflix series 怪奇物語.
特点及相关术语
[编辑]Synthwave is a microgenre[10][11] of 電子音樂[1] that draws predominantly from 1980s films, video games, and cartoons,[12] as well as composers such as 約翰·卡本特, 让-米歇尔·雅尔, 范吉利斯, and 橘夢樂團.[13][14] Other reference points include 電子音樂類型列表 including house, synth, and nu-disco.[15] It is primarily an instrumental genre, although there are occasional exceptions to the rule.[16] Common tempos are between 80 and 118 BPM, while more upbeat tracks may be between 128 and 140 BPM.[17]
"Outrun" is a synonym of synthwave that was later used to refer more generally to retro 1980s aesthetics such as VHS tracking artifacts, magenta neon, and 栅格设计.[16] The term comes from the 1986 竞速游戏 game 超越 (游戏), which is known for its soundtrack that could be selected in-game and its 1980s aesthetic.[14][18] According to musician Perturbator (James Kent), outrun is also its own subgenre, mainly instrumental, and often contains 1980s clichéd elements in the sound such as 电子鼓, gated reverb, and analog synthesizer bass lines and leads—all to resemble tracks from that time period.[19] There is also a visual component on synthwave album covers and music videos. According to PC Gamer, the essence of outrun visuals is "taking elements of a period of '80s excess millennials find irresistibly evocative, and modernizing them so they're just barely recognizable."[20]
Other subgenres include dreamwave, darksynth, and scifiwave.[7] Journalist Julia Neuman cited "outrun", "futuresynth", and "retrowave" as alternative terms for synthwave[5] while author Nicholas Diak wrote that "retrowave" was an 上下位關係 that encompasses 1980s revivalism genres such as synthwave and vaporwave.[16] Darksynth is influenced by horror cinema.[21] Invisible Oranges wrote that darksynth is exemplified mainly by a shift away from the bright "邁阿密風雲 vibes" and "French electro house influences" and "toward the darker electronic terrains of horror movie maestro composers John Carpenter and Goblin (band)" also infused with sounds from 後龐克, 工业音乐 and Electronic body music.[22]
起源
[编辑]Synthwave originates from the mid-2000s[23] or late 2000s.[4] Diak traced the genre to a broader trend involving young artists whose works drew from their childhoods in the 1980s. He credited the success of the 2002 video game 俠盜獵車手:罪惡城市 with shifting "attitudes toward the '80s ... from parody and ambivalence to that of homage and reverence", leading directly to genres such as synthwave and vaporwave.[16] The influence of Vice City was also noted by 未來出版社.[10] Molly Lambert of 音樂電視網 noted the song "Lua错误:bad argument #1 to 'gsub' (string expected, got nil)。" by 橘夢樂團 in the film Lua错误:bad argument #1 to 'gsub' (string expected, got nil)。 (1983) was a major influence, with "ornately repetitive synth patterns, hypnotic chimes, and percussive choogling drum machines".[14]
The mid-2000s Lua错误:bad argument #1 to 'gsub' (string expected, got nil)。 acts Lua错误:bad argument #1 to 'gsub' (string expected, got nil)。 (College), and Lua错误:bad argument #1 to 'gsub' (string expected, got nil)。, who had created music in the style of 1980s film scores, were among the earliest artists to be part of the emergence of synthwave.[5] Key reference points for early synthwave included the 1982 film 银翼杀手 (both Lua错误:bad argument #1 to 'gsub' (string expected, got nil)。 and the film itself), 8- and 16-bit video games, 1980s jingles for VHS production companies, and television news broadcasts and advertisements from that era.[4] According to 新音乐快递 and 未來出版社, the 2011 film 亡命驾驶 was a major influence on synthwave, and included a track by Kavinsky, "Nightcall" in the film's soundtrack,[24][10] as well as David Grellier, Lua错误:bad argument #1 to 'gsub' (string expected, got nil)。, and several tracks by Lua错误:bad argument #1 to 'gsub' (string expected, got nil)。.[10] EDM.com described Kavinsky as a "synthwave pioneer",[25] while the horror blog Lua错误:bad argument #1 to 'gsub' (string expected, got nil)。 describes Lua错误:bad argument #1 to 'gsub' (string expected, got nil)。 as a "synthwave icon".[26]
Popularity and legacy
[编辑]In the early 2010s, the synthwave soundtracks of films such as 亡命驾驶 and 創:光速戰記 attracted new fans and artists to the genre.[7] Drive featured Kavinsky's "Lua错误:bad argument #1 to 'gsub' (string expected, got nil)。" and "Lua错误:bad argument #1 to 'gsub' (string expected, got nil)。" by College and Lua错误:bad argument #1 to 'gsub' (string expected, got nil)。, which catapulted synthwave into mainstream recognition and solidified its stature as a music genre.[4] The genre's popularity was furthered through its presence in the soundtracks of video games like 極地戰嚎3:血龍 and Lua错误:bad argument #1 to 'gsub' (string expected, got nil)。, as well as the Netflix series 怪奇物語, which featured synthwave pieces that accommodated the show's 1980s setting.[4][27] Nerdglow's Christopher Higgins cited Electric Youth and Kavinsky as the two most popular artists in synthwave in 2014.[12]
In the mid-2010s, "蒸气波" (a portmanteau of "法西斯主义" and "synthwave")[8] emerged as a largely instrumental 音乐类型 of synthwave and vaporwave, with political track titles and occasional soundbites, such as excerpts of speeches given by 阿道夫·希特勒.[28] The phenomenon was described as self-identified fascists and 另类右派 members appropriating vaporwave music and aesthetics.[29][30] Elsewhere, there was a growing trend of Russian synthwave musicians whose work espoused nostalgia for the 苏联, sometimes described as "Lua错误:bad argument #1 to 'gsub' (string expected, got nil)。".[31]
In 2016, British band 1975樂團 released the critically acclaimed synthwave-influenced track "别人". The track comes as their third single for their second album, 突襲美夢. It has been cited as a major influence on many contemporaries' work, such as 洛德 (歌手), 泰特·麥可蕾 and 奧莉維亞·羅德里戈.
Synthwave remained a niche genre throughout the 2010s. In 2017, PC Gamer noted that synthwave influences were to be felt in early 2010s gaming releases, primarily of the "outrun" subgenre, including Lua错误:bad argument #1 to 'gsub' (string expected, got nil)。 and 極地戰嚎3:血龍.[20] Writing in 2019, PopMatters journalist Preston Cram said, "Despite its significant presence and the high level of enthusiasm about it, synthwave in its complete form remains a primarily underground form of music."[4] He added that "Nightcall" and "A Real Hero" remained "two of only a small number of synthwave songs produced to date that widely known outside the genre's followers."[4]
The 2019 虚拟现实 game Lua错误:bad argument #1 to 'gsub' (string expected, got nil)。 heavily features the synthwave genre in its soundtrack,[32] which was composed by Lua错误:bad argument #1 to 'gsub' (string expected, got nil)。.
In 2020, "Blinding Lights", a synthwave-influenced song by 节奏布鲁斯 artist 威肯[33][34] topped US record charts, the first song to do so during the 2019冠状病毒病疫情.[35] Matt Mills of Lua错误:bad argument #1 to 'gsub' (string expected, got nil)。 wrote in 2021 that the genre "had exploded into the mainstream, cramming dancefloors and soundtracking blockbusters."[36]
