Synth Riders Goes Totally 80s with Latest Music Pack!
[h3]Synth Riders Goes Totally 80s with Latest Music Pack[/h3]
Today, Synth Riders drops some totally awesome DLC: A trip back to the 1980s! What’s in store with The 80s Mixtape – Side A (besides flashbacks to hanging out at the mall)?
First, there’s an 80s-inspired stage available at no additional cost. We also created most excellent beatmaps for five songs from the era. Best of all, it’s available right now, whether you play Synth Riders on Meta Quest 2, Meta Quest 3 or Steam enabled VR headset.

a-ha - Take on Me
You know it by heart, the pencil-drawn video that’s broken many a karaoke singer trying to match Morten Harket’s high notes when he belts out, “In a day or twoooooo….!” Well, we are taking that song to new (interactive) levels in Synth Riders 80s Mixtape - Side A!
Starship - We Built This City
Starship’s protest song against closing Los Angeles music venues is peak pop rock. Mickey Thomas and Grace Slick’s vocals roasting corporate expansion became an 80s anthem — in a decade of corporate expansion.
Devo - Whip It
When a problem comes along, you know what to do: Strap on your Devo-approved energy dome. (For real, that’s a thing.) This song – and its video – cemented Devo as an early pioneer of US New Wave. Now, we say, “Whip It” in Synth Riders!
Phil Collins - Sussudio
What did you say when you had your first schoolyard crush? Was it something like “Sussudio?” That’s what Phil Collins’ mid-80s song is all about. Just take a nonsense word, a horn section and the heavy funk influence of “1999” by Prince and you’re all set!
INXS - New Sensation
Australia's INXS, with its huge drums, relentless guitars, and sax solos define late 1980s rock. Combine that with the distinctive vocal growls of Michael Hutchence on “New Sensation” and you’ve got a Synth Riders track that grabs you and won’t let go.
...and, as we mentioned at the top, we have the 80s-inspired stage, “Endless Cafe.”

Minor Update - Synthmas is over for another year!
We hope that you've enjoyed the snow,
But now it's Santa's time to go.
Those carolling bells will call your name,
When Synthmas time draws near again!
