Carpenter, by Retro Promenade

Carpenter

by Retro Promenade

supported by

DJ Home Movies An impressive collection, built by 20 artists and heralded by Retro Promenade. For artists, some well-known, others just starting off, and for tracks, some for watching the sunset, and others for chasing the moon. But all are equal in talent of making music, and respect for one of the best 80's, if not all time, film directors.

Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys synthwave, or cinematic material in general. Favorite track: That Thing.

Wulfdan Aside from this album being a stunning tribute to a truly unique artist, Retro Promenade is one classy operation. I bought the poster with this album and unfortunately the poster was lost in the mail. Retro Promenade was beyond understanding and went above and beyond to sort the issue out. A true class act, keep putting out the great tunes guys!

SokK I could never thank this album enough because I discovered GUNSHIP and Iriving Force with it... And man I love GUNSHIP and Irving Force.
Still, on its own, this record is a beautiful and brilliant tribute to John Carpenter. Also look for Lazerhawk ans VHS Glitch's tracks. Favorite track: Pink Mist.

My favorite one. The sampled speech (from the movie Network) in the opening track has a certain flavor in those dark times and helps to immerse oneself in this dystopia univers.. Ludovic
