Synth Pop Symphony, Los Angeles, San Francisco. Welcome to Synth Pop Symphony of Symphony. Playing the best new wave electropod. Synthwave, Italo Disco, and high-energy electronic dance music from the 80s to today. With your host, DJ Matt Williams. Your dance music Odyssey starts now.

SPEAKER_01

What's up, world? This is Synth Pop Symphony, and I'm Matt Williams, broadcasting on 60 stations across 75 countries. This is Show 317, and tonight the entire show is 100% in the mix from start to finish. Hour one is a true Symphony of Scents. We're gonna blend styles together like Reese's blends chocolate and peanut butter together. We've got brand new music from Neon Capital. They have a brand new album out called Midnight Lovers, and we're gonna be playing two tracks tonight from NLP. Paralx is gonna take us back to the Pet Shop Boys. Black Light gets remixed by Carved Souls. There's a brand new TSF remix of Front 242, a rare 1983 track by Robert Smith of the Cure, and lots of new Italo and high-energy dance tracks woven throughout. We've got Dark Synth, New Wave, Modern Remixes, Artists remixing other artists, generations crossing over. Then at the top of Hour 2, it's Sinister New Disco. This is a brand new mix I put together. It's called the Purple Disco Machine Edition, a full mix journey featuring originals and massive remixes from Purple Disco Machine. I'll break that playlist down when we get there in the second hour. So wherever you are in the world, turn it up. This is show 317. And let's start by going back to Hawkins, Indiana, straight into Stranger Things Territory. The opening track from the brand new Neon Capital album, Midnight Lovers. Let's kick it off with Hawkins in the mix right here on Simpop Symphony.

SPEAKER_00

If you were a kid in the 1980s, then you will definitely relate to these 1980s memories.

SPEAKER_29

You also kept yourself busy by making mixtapes and binge watching rented movies from Blockbuster. If this sounds like your childhood, then you will definitely relate to these 1980s memories. Do you remember middle and high schoolers began tie rolling their jeans, growing out their mullet, and teasing their bangs to the sky with a can of Aquanette hairspray? Friday nights were for many a blockbuster night. Stepping into that brightly lit blockbuster store, it wasn't uncommon to leave with a stack of movies that would last you all weekend. So that you could head over to the arcade to play the newest games. You tried your best to make it on the leaderboard whenever you played Pac-Man, Space Invaders, or Donkey Kong. Growing up in the 80s, MTV was an important part of the pop culture of this time. In those days, they actually played music videos.

SPEAKER_05

My head above the water as another new. The silence makes me ill. Sharks are moving and further cue and that I'm so pressed to you. The silence makes me ill. Shives are moving and killed.

Invitations to teenage parties Dressed in white, once every quotation from someone's wife, a famous writer in the 1920s. We would never be any boring. When I went, I left from the station with a hammer stack. Someone said, If you're not careful, you'll have nothing left, and nothing to care for in the 1970s. But I sat back and looking forward, my issues were high, and I had scored. I bumped through a closing door, and I would never find myself feeling bored. We dressed up a thought for thoughts we can. We were always holding that. Looking back, we would always rely on friends, and we would never be any boring.

SPEAKER_22

Oh yes, on Synth Pop Symphony Our dreams were made of steel.

SPEAKER_21

There's a ghost that's creeping inside me. Flap my wings with gasoline. I need your life, the sun feeds the water. I need you like the sand is the water.

DJ Matt Williams with Symphony.

SPEAKER_30

Ho visto tante città meravigliose, ma in nessuna sono stato bene come a Firenze. Mi sono ubriacato alla grande a Bordeaux, ma bere a Firenze è tutta un'altra cosa. Avevo una amante bellissima a Londra, ma il miglior sess solo ho fatto a Firenze. Festeggiavo notte e giorno a Berlino, ma non è come festeggiare a Firenze. Una volta a Varsavia mi sono sfallato alla grande, ma non era niente in confronto a volare a Firenze. Vorrei tanto rivedere Parigi un giorno, ma mi manca sempre Firenze. I gelati non sono male a Vienna, ma non c'è gelato migliore di quello di Firenze. Amo viaggiare e sono stato bene in tante città, ma più di tutte amo Firenze, Firenze, Firenze, non è come festeggiare a Firenze. Ma bere a Firenze è tutta un'altra cosa. Ma non c'è gelato migliore di quello di Firenze. Ma non era niente pronto a volare a Firenze, ma più di tutte ama Firenze, andiamo a 2019.
