Hello again to you crazed synth heads out there and thanks again for joining us on Straight Thru The Night this past week. DJ Travers was back in action as he and DJ Matt brought you a set list of the latest and greatest in retro new wave. Okay, well Matt ran a little late and missed the first segment but he got there eventually (thanks again to Mr. 953 for filling in! Listen to his show “& Chill” gosh darnit.) On tonight’s show we began discussion on one of the hottest shows of the summer, Netflix’s Stranger Things. It’s a perfect vessel for all the 80s nostalgia we like to discuss on the show and pays tribute to some of the great movies and geeky pop culture trends from that period. Even better, it has a tremendously synth soaked score provided by the duo S U R V I V E. We’re hoping the soundtrack comes out soon because it’s just the sort of thing we like to play. DJ Matt is all caught up and is envious of DJ Travers who is just about half way through the series. We’ll be sure to get an update from him next week. News of the release of the Nintendo NES Classic Mini also got us chatting a bit about our earliest memories of playing video games and the consoles we grew up with. Below we’ve got the playlist from the show and are still discovering new artists and albums to add to the set lists. Tune in next Tuesday from 8-10 p.m. for a new episode where we bring to life all your synthesizer fantasies and Casio dreams!
