The Rise of the Synths is a 2019 documentary film written and directed by Iván Castell and narrated by filmmaker and composer John Carpenter. The film explores the origins and growth of the electronic music genre known as synthwave, charting its rise in popularity from the underground online music scene to its recent mainstream exposure following use in retro-themed soundtracks, notably the 2011 film Drive and more recently the television series Stranger Things.

When I was a rogue cop in the 80s who recently lost my badge and gun trying to avenge my wife. She was killed by The Cartel/Mob/Yakuza/etc... Driving out to the beach to watch the sunrise from a long muggy summer night of drinking and justice. This was the soundtrack to my life. Another classic album. dzestmen
