SYNTHWAVE: Listen to Mega Drive's Latest Single 'Shadow Dancer'

Mega Drive keeps teasing us with singles from its upcoming 200XAD album. The fifth single has just been released titled "Shadow Dancer" which takes a break from the darker side of synthwave they are known for and instead has a playful atmosphere with dynamic synth leads that create an immersive sense of a dance.

The enigmatic artist behind the Mega Drive project has established himself as one of the most visionary creators in synthwave, and early releases like VHS, Hardwired, and 198XAD represent essential pillars of the dark synth and cyberpunk synthwave outgrowths of the main genre. Since his first releases in 2012, Mega Drive has gained a diehard following and his albums have become some of the most well-known and well-respected recordings in the entire retro synth world.

"Shadow Dancer" First Impression: The instrumental has a real immersive quality. Many elements of synth to listen to while the main beat escorts you through the song. There's also a sense of mystery, as if Crockett and Tubbs are looking for a clue in their latest vice case. In context with the other singles released from the 200XAD album, it should make for a nice interlude.

"Shadow Dancer" is out now from independent multi-genre music label FiXT. Listen to the single below or use the link to connect in your favorite music streaming app.
