Ha ha, not bad. Solid guitar work. However, it lacks the retro feel that I have such a soft spot for. There's just something about old school '80s-y synths that makes me wanna wear a headband and ride a giant bald eagle.

Cool, and thanks. Just another excuse to shamelessly plug my crap.

I know what you want. You want some Jan:

Perfect! I've heard that the soundtrack of Miami Vice was a huge influence on Synthwave. I've actually never listened to any of the songs before, or seen any episodes. Crockett's theme is a chill banger.

It's a mile off base here, but check out Jan's work with Billy Cobham on Spectrum. It's mostly fusion stuff, but there's a killer chill track at the end of the album. Some crazy pitch shifting going on too:

Pretty smooth, nice groove. And the intro sounds like playing an NES game while on LSD. I like it.

John Carpenter's Lost Themes Vols I & II. Dystopian Synthwave.

^ That's some good stuff, from one of the OG masters of synth soundtracks no less. Makes me wanna dig out some of his old flicks and rewatch them. Good times.

Here's something I always thought could very well have been inspired by Crockett's Theme. Ronnie on the 6 string and synth:

Nice synth tone in the beginning.

If life came with it's own soundtrack, this is the song that would play whenever someone set off on a quest for revenge.
