- The decision to create a Bandcamp page for Lakeshore started when Bergin uploaded his own music to the platform, and he saw how well niche genres like electronic, darkwave, and industrial music performed.

Would Stranger Things be the cultural touchstone it’s become were it not for its mesmerizing soundtrack by Kyle Dixon and Michael Stein of the Austin synthwave band S U R V I V E? It’s the perfect accompaniment to the show’s hyper-detailed retro aesthetic; the show and its soundtrack are intricately linked. The directors, the Duffer Brothers, used ...
Synthwave has grown so much that there is a documentary in the works called Rise of the Synths. Synthesizers were used heavily in music in the ‘70s and ’80s, but went out of fashion for a while. Nowadays, though, synthwave artists use the outdated technology to create nostalgic, retro-sounding music. As of the writing of this article, the movie isn...
Not everything Lakeshore releases is a soundtrack. The label also puts out several traditional “band albums” a year, like Mega Drive’s Seas of Infinity. This record is actually Lakeshore’s best-selling release on Bandcamp, neck and neck with Rise of the Synths. This isn’t exactly synthwave; the textures are grittier and the beats are harder, almost...
The link between synthwave and retro video games is a close one. The soundtrack for Netflix’s Castlevania series is a treat for all the ‘80s Nintendo-loving enthusiasts out there. It’s an animated program based on the plot of 1989 game Castlevania III: Dracula’s Curse. In the show, Trevor Belmont defends the nation of Wallachia from Dracula. The so...
In truly terrifying fashion, The Voidtells the tale of a group of people trapped inside a hospital, taunted by Lovecraftian monsters. The soundtrack is an ominous collection of 32 mostly short songs. It’s a fitting soundtrack in that it generates the sense of fear without any real explanation of what it is that is so terrifying. It’s very primal an...
The movie Synchronicityis a fairly obscure mind-bending time travel sci-fi film. For composer Ben Lovett, he really wanted to capture the essence of those ’80s John Carpenter films to accompany the visual nature of the movies. Lovett took the project very seriously and only used analog synths. In fact, he went so deep into the concept that he recor...
Have you ever wanted to re-score a classic film? This is precisely what synthwave artists OGRE and Dallas Campbell have done on more than one occasion. They’ve done All Hallows’,2001: A Space Odyssey, and, perhaps their finest work to date, the re-imagining of the zombie classic Night of the Living Dead. The original is an amazing black and white f...
One of the stranger releases on Lakeshore’s Bandcamp page is the Crank High Voltage soundtrack, which was scored by Faith No More/Mr. Bungle’s Mike Patton. While his primary groups have gone into some strange spaces, Patton has gone much further out there with his lesser-known bands, like Fantômas and his solo records. His vocals-only solo albums a...
Most synthwave soundtracks are scored for movies in the horror, sci-fi, or thriller genres. Distance Between Dreamsis a documentary about surfing. But it’s one that takes you behind the scenes and captures the fear, panic, and excitement of trying to catch that one big wave. This doc was scored by Junkie XL, who created a synth soundtrack that isn’...
TheBlair Witchremake is likely a movie many folks didn’t realize had a soundtrack. Its whole point is to seem like found footage. Yet director Adam Wingard actually put in a lot of work to create a compelling ambient soundtrack for the movie, that when played with the action and dialogue, blends in seamlessly, as though it were part of the naturall...
