Review: Diving into the neon pop power of 80s synth pastiche, 90s memorabilia and 2000s nostalgia, a new album from American synthwave duo The Midnight has arrived. Following previous albums like Endless Summer and Kids, the band's music channels everything from Daft Punk vocoders and night driving Kavinsky beats to hints of Fleetwood Mac inspirations ("Last Train") to new age Sega gaming reference in ambient tracks like "The Search For Ecco". A trip down an illuminated, cyber pop memory lane, this album will touch the hearts of anyone that's enjoyed films like Weird Science to Kung Fury.
