Cold Wave

Post by berto999 »

Been really getting into this kind of stuff of late. Anyone dabble in making similar music? Or recommend some artists?

I've still got a bunch of it in my music collection from way back. Actually my sister gave it to me, she was well in to this stuff when I was a wee boy, it was her who got me in to electronic music. She gave me her records when she emigrated to South Africa.
Not been in to it since my late teens, when I was old enough to get the moodiness.
Is this the latest retro revival?

Excellent, plenty of stuff to get through here, cheers!

I think this sound is definitely becoming more popular again, have been hearing a lot of DJs playing it out.

It never really went away, always been a thing. I think the success of Minimal Wave Records with all their reissues has led to it being more widely know and trendy atm.



Forgot one of my favorites The Soft Moon

That's true. Veronica Vasicka was playing in my city on Friday but unfortunately I missed her!

I have to admit that the term 'cold wave' is new to me but I've heard some of these tracks before. I have always liked the track from the 'Bronson' film whenever I've watched it.
Is it called cold wave because it all sounds so digital?

I actually think the Digital Versacolor track from Bronson counts as Synth Wave, which is part of the whole synth pop revival thing. It`s not really coldwave.

I was heavily into the underground scene in france around 2008-2011, 80's inspired stuff for the dancefloor, so much emotion in those old 80's juno and the like sounds.

Anoraak was probably my fave artist, College and Grum being others, they all moved onto making house and guitar stuff though.

A group of the artists called themselves Valerie Collective which had a blog with loads of cool music on there, I got bored though and moved on as did a few of the best artists, 3 years into something is a long time for me, I've been back into Techno for nearly 3 and I'm still intrigued, I always seem to come back to it.

Ok, I have no clue if this is cold wave, but I think it's part of the venn diagram some how. I like hearing about genres I don't know about so feel free to correct me or tell me wtf i am listening to.
