Raise your hand if you haven't seen or heard of Stranger Things. The phenomenon of this series responds to a nostalgia for the 80s that is reflected today and without rest in the cinema, television and even in video games - and of course, also in music. Narrated by iconic director John Carpenter, The Rise Of The Synths is a journey back in time and back, from the roots of this scene to its impact on today's pop culture. So what is Synthwave? An irresistible mix of nostalgia and music; of creative processes and cultural references; of reappropriation and legitimate creation. Is it a random renaissance or an emerging cultural phenomenon?
