Things fall into place. Synth missiles from Devo and Human League, newness via BER and LHR, and a rare Swedish call-up.

Thisworldly, by R. Missing 1 track album

Catching up with R. Missing is a never-ending pursuit. The NYC duo keeps the singles going steady, always exploring a variety of dance floor sounds in a decidedly dreamy and somewhat inscrutable way. Often enough, they cast a unique hook, taking Sythpop Nonstop by the lip. #r.missing #synthpop

#wutc

In sweat that glistens. Blockaded synth cargo from Space and Nation of Language, new tracks via LGA and MSP, plus a rare Dickinsonian new wave banger.

Remorse, by A Thousand Mad Things track by A Thousand Mad Things

Quality and quantity are alligned when it comes to the barrage of singles from A Thousand Mad Things. London producer William Barradale nicks iconic '80s form, adding deft, subtle modern upgrades, solid songwriting, with serious vocal talent. #athousandmadthings #synthpop

Have you heard it on the news. Synths in the streets with Eurythmics and Ministry, shiny new sounds via LHR and YVR, plus the lost spawn of Sex Gang Children.

#athousandmadthings #actors #boundbyendogamy #synthpop

I was on a Paris train. Synthtastic classics from Simple Minds and The Korgis, new tunes via LGW and LAX, plus scarce and sexy Swedish post-disco.

Synthpop Nonstop is pleased to join the Hereford FC community. @hereford-fc.bsky.social

Better Live, by POLIÇA 8 track album

Composed and recorded before a live audience over the course of a 3-week residency, near where federal agents murdered Alex Pretti in their ongoing rampage of lawlessness and property damage, Better Live is a testimony to the strength and integrity of the Mpls music scene and Polica in particular.

It's just an old war. Invasive synth classics from Japan and Oingo Boingo, new music via MSP and LAX, and a quaint anti-TV anthem from a lost video star.

CTRL, by ACTORS track by ACTORS

The latest single from Vancouver gothy synth rockers Actors is one of their strongest to date. An album is due in the autumn. #actors #synthpop

All my words slip away. Golden synth tracks from Telex and Ryuichi Sakamoto, new stuff via TVR and BOS, and an iconoclastic Sao Paulo video classic.

SYNERTIA EP, by SYNERTIA 4 track album

Synertia is a new collaborative project from indie stawart Jen Wood (Tattle Tale, 9 solo albums, The Postal Service), with LA producer Derek Ryan. A bit more dance floor than her recent GEMZ project, grounded in Wood's clear phrasing, intonation, and lovelorn themes. SPNS pick: "Above the Clouds"

The sky's alive with lights. Bombastic synth classics from Propaganda and Boytronic, new things via LAX and LGW, plus an Anglo-Brazilian obscurity.

#synertia #pva #brutusVIII #synthpop

I feel you in my mind. Synth revolution classics from Soft Cell and Art Of Noise, new tracks via LAX and LGA, plus a Dr. Who-inspired rarity.

In For The Kill, by Die Sexual track by Die Sexual

Gothy LA couple Die Sexual (either "dye" or "dee" is OK with them) deliver another dark, pulsing single, grounded on EBM, with sensual spoken vox, that is stickier than a swingers' club ottoman. #diesexual #synthpop

A Furwell to Kings, by Cat Temper 9 track album

Bringing dynamics, humor, and a serious work ethic to synthwave, Boston-based Mike Langlie/Cat Temper's latest is a sideways homage to Rush '77. It's more guitar-forward than much of the CT catalog, but mega Getty electronic melodies land closer to the heart. SPNS pick: "Temples of the Sphinx"

Like the night waiting for the day. Synth classics uprising with OMD and Bat For Lashes, new tunes via BOS and LHR plus rare '80s relief.

@cattemper.bsky.social #athousandmadthings @ladytrongroup.bsky.social #synthpop

A desolation where I once lived. Subzero synth classics from Kraftwerk and André Cymone, new beats via LGW and LAX, plus a lost '80s Liverpool semi-supergroup.

#PVA #BrutusVIII @wuzybambussy.bsky.social #synthpop

No More Like This, by PVA 10 track album

The London trio's sophomore LP explores advanced trip-hop sonic terrain just right of industrial. Their urgent and intimate vocal presence make PVA easy to pick out. SPNS pick: "Enough"
#synthpop #pva

The lunatics have taken over the asylum. Synths under siege by Erasure and Bill Nelson, some new LHR sounds, plus a rare chip off the old Throbbing Gristle.

#athousandmadthings @ladytrongroup.bsky.social @ladytronfanaccount.bsky.social #austra #synthpop

K-tel would compress the cuts, and edit tracks, to fit as many songs as possible on a record--some of which were required by a label in exchange for the license to a hit. This also had the advantage, in some territories, of avoiding some payment of royalties, due to exceeding statutory maximums.

Times, times. Synth dissent from The Cars and Sylvester, new-ish material via LAX and BRS, plus a rarity from a duo accused of inventing techno.

Clash Covers, by The Quilz 5 track album

Milwaukee synth-pop couple The Quilz have a knack for fresh-sounding covers. The Clash is the inspiration for their latest batch, earnest and whimsical in the right ration. SPNS pick: "Rock the Casbah" #thequilz #synthpop

Lies lies lies yeah. Honest synth nuggets from OMD and Cabaret Voltaire, new vibes via MKE and GOT, plus hidden Basic new wave.

#thequilz #compute #dlinavolne #synthpop

Watch a lot of foreign movies. A synth invasion led by Kraftwerk and The Human League, new stuff out of LIL and YYZ, plus rare dark Belgian sweets.

@ladytrongroup.bsky.social #austra #potochkine #synthpop

You're my aural stimulator. Synthtasia by DAF and Georgio Moroder, new music via the UK and France, plus a well-baked Boston 80s rarity.

Ad "synth" to your resolution. @wuzybambussy.bsky.social #zaatar #darkchisme
