In an interview with The Playground, the producer shared how he began composing synthwave music: “Back in 2013 when I started this project, I came across a bunch of artists that did retro-inspired synth music. I understood that it had become a thing that now later on eventually is a big part of popular media. Back in the early 2000s, I did covers for movies like The Terminator theme etc. I never thought that anyone would be interested in that listening to that niche nerdy music but I was wrong.”
Although we find ourselves in a different decade and era for music, Waveshaper still maintains prominence in the electronic music sphere with over 65 million streams on multiple music streaming platforms. Listening to this album, many may recall days spent playing video games in the ‘90s with your closest friends.
