I need to send u guys a photo of my 98 corolla, stance car nation
where is the mr2
and the steering wheel needs the original tereno swan, and its dope, cause it looks like a tear drop
we enjoy!
how can it be that my eyes can see. the poor recognition you must receive. it must be hard to consider the amount of suffering you have removed from earth by simply sharing your art. the level of healing you have ushered only the universe can fathom. there is no sum you can ever imagine is worth more than the love you have allowed to blossom in mans fragile heart.
You ever think why music is not itself a form of religion? I mean think of it.. if you were a alien being who doesnt understand music; and you observe humans making and dancing to music.. what would you think music is? In a dream once I witnessed music as beams of colors that strikes the hearts and souls of every human being within sight.
and in that dream I cared. you cared. there was no fear because fear serves us... wait i remember now.. it wasnt a dream.. that moment is now.
Reminds me of the good ol' days of driving to the moon
Except that the moon was actually following me
Lmfao @MP Edits what are you doing here aha cheers though man! 👊😃
using the tumbler across the hellmouth. take me back:(
😁😁😁
Imagine if physics didnt matter so much and we could drive to the Moon.
That would take a long ass time, but it would be sooo cool
Fun fact: the distance from the Earth to the moon is around 238,900 miles. If you maintain a speed of 70 mph driving to the moon nonstop, then it will take you around 142 days to reach it. That's plenty of time to engage in some Nostalgia Drive.
Isnt that like 3 months?
@@rufusrobinson3348 3 months is about 90 days🧐 so 52 days will left even in case you ride 24/7 without sleeping refueling and stops for meals. 🤔🤷🏻♂️
@@rufusrobinson3348 I don't know. All I know is that Nostalgia Drive is still going and the moon only seems so much closer. :)
@@fatcat7msk7ru oooohhh...
sounds good to me
funny enough seeing the little things reflected in the windshield got me nostalgic feels from traveling with my dad on hit truck and how i'd fall asleep looking at this things fly back at high speeds and looking at every little thing
Such good memories!
I used to love driving to the Moon, now it's a nightmare with all the traffic and Non-Stop road construction.
Me: Are we there yet?
Driver: There is no "there".
Are we there yet?
Always have been
*kidnapping vibe intensifies*
i actually had a Dream about a world you would end up in when you die, you wake up along a dirty road, with your past lives favorite vehicle standing next to you, and you get in it to drive somewhere, but you dont know where. as you drive you meet a filty old guy on a bicycle, and he helps you. so you offer him a ride in return, wich he accepts. the two of you then travel trough the wastelands as the roads change from small sideroads into bigger highways and multilane roads. as you get closer to what you believe is the end of the roads and where you are supposed to go you see roaming gangs of others trying to find the goal , i dont have a ending other than that the old guy you hepled out , the guy on the bike, turns out to be a monitor of the angels, and it was all just a test of your character.
I'm 14 and this is deep
We are not here or there and we are out but in
Let's assume, the distance between each lantern is around 50 meters and between every street sign we have 14 lanterns. From one sign to another you need around 12.87 seconds.
That means we are traveling at the speed of 54.39 m/s which is around 195.8 km/h.
The moon has an average distance of 380.000km from earth. At this speed we need at least 1940.76 hours or 80.86 days to reach our destination on the moon.
Or we could simply replay this awesome mix 2223 times to pass the time =)
PS: I'm sorry for some random information,
I often do pointless things to keep myself from learning for tests :D
Heh and it would look like the moon is barely getting bigger until the last 10 or so days.
Good work. Jives well with the speedometer pointing at roughly 200 km/h. Now, isn't anyone else going to wonder "Is that a Pontiac Fiero?!?"
Nerd
But how fast does it have to be to cook the chicken by slapping it ?
Hey, If we are getting distracted from our work, at least practicing distance-velocity calculations is not a total waste of time... I'm getting back to it.
Fast car + open highway + retro music = great ass time.
This reminds me of that visualizer on the Sega Saturn. You'd pop in a music CD, and while the tunes flowed, you could pilot this spaceship, though it only ever went forward, occasionally passed by other ships. A saturn-esque planet lay in the distance.
I kept hoping you could reach it, but you never did. Still, it was relaxing, if nothing else. I guess they were trying to say "it's about the journey, not the destination", in their own way. Kinda like this visual.
I'm nostalgic of a past i never lived and a future i will never live.
Facts
Couldn't put it any better!
I think the word saudade fits well.
@@scottcolpitts8521 Why in Portuguese?
@@Luiz17071990 I remember trying to find a better word for what I was feeling besides " nostalgia ". Saudade was what I found, and your right, it is Portuguese with no real english equivalent.
I am lucky to born in the '80s and my father was a geek. I was listening to this kind of music all the time with him. Sadly he is not with me a long time ago but when I am listening to music like this I feel his soul is with me.
dammn
Rip 😔
Can I have a recommendation list of actual music from that era, please.
RIP to dad, you had an awesome one and hes proud of you. thank you for sharing your awesome connection to this music brother.
Rip
"Where are we going?"
"Doesn't matter, cause we're together"
Notice how nobody is jumping in the passing lane to slow traffic down. The power of listening to Synthwave. It actually improves your mood and driving.
If there were a game where you just drove along like this, on a freeway through space, with no objective but to listen to relaxing music....I'd play it all the time.
Sounds like a PS1 game that could've been
I would pay for that kind of game
That would be cool I love ❤️ games with no point that are relaxing 😌
so... I’m an amateur game developer,I read your comment and it motivated me to try to make a game like this, soon I’ll make the download link available

Here you go, different cars, modes and "courses" , you can even drive without any other cars and enjoy the music, very nice graphics and you will even find space road courses^^
I like it a lot, and its really cheap =D
I work graveyard shifts as an NOC Engineer and this stuff really keeps me company during the those desolate hours.
Miss those good old days where my father will take me on a trip to the moon. The 80s were different !
Whoever made the animation has great taste in cars. Delorean, integra, AE111 corolla or a 6th gen celica, AE86 corolla, BMW m3, the countach being driven... Great job!
true
Yeah man fr, it's lovely! I wish it was an actual game or something haha. I'd love to zen out and just go for a rip.
...and with pop-up headlights too! :^)
Lets not forget the Acura Integra ❤
And Mercedes Ben's E190 (orange)
I like how the reflection of the instrument panel in the windshield is clearer than the actual instrument panel.
IT is because the camera focuses on the window andwhats in front of the car, not on the panel. The reflection is a little bit more in focus.
It's accurate. That's where your focus would be and the instrument panel itself would be shallow in focus.
tfw you have alice in wonderland syndrome and occasionally everything is in focus
I think someones been drinking some of that fire water. 😉😁
@@jerrydragonbunny8508 exactly person doesn't know what a FOV (field of view) is
The fact that the road signs actually have real names of sites on the moon is so facking dope.
Thanks for pointing this out I’ve listened to this for months now and you’ve just brought this to light.
The middle sign is originally from the King of Prussia area NW of Philadelphia on the PA Turnpike. I’ve seen US 64 signs near Memphis and 441 in Florida and Knoxville.
This music has helped me get some semblance of peace in an uncertain, transitional period of my life where I'm scared of almost every outcome. Theres something about this track and the way its brought people together in the comments that brings me so much joy. If you're reading this, you are brave, you are strong, and you are in control, I believe in you!
amen!
amen!
amen!
Thank you for assuring me brother.. 👊🏿
Same here. Long-term unemployment's crap to live through and to get out of.
Stiff upper-lip and carry on, mates!👊💪
Someone has said "This was the first synthwave video I ever found and I think it's the best one.", and I agree. Thank you sir
I'm grateful that synthwave is still alive.
And forever will be
its a beautiful thing.
It's a good talent 😍
I feel the same way.
As long as we have machines …
We’ll ALWAYS have SynthWave
& Dubstep … gotta have Dubstep.
The only way that this video could be even more satisfying is if it ended with us arriving at the moon.
This is my daily commute.
I'm an 80's child and this video accurately depicts how I imagined what the future would be like back then. Great video and mix.
same
Yeah! The future ain't what it used to be...
Oh to go back to the 80's, and stay there
Listening to synthwave making retrofuturistic scenarios in my head has become my escape for these times :(
One of the best kinds of escapes
Same here lol
TO THE MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!!
Takes me back to those long nights of partying in the city and driving back to my place across the bridge into the private houses, and property
I love this concept. Flying down an endless highway stretching out into space in your favorite car going as fast as you want to go would be heaven to me. Visit other plants, solar systems and galaxies at my own pace and at peace with everything. Man, what a dream.
Going as fast as I dare on an open smooth road is the only place I feel truly free.
Favorite car going fast is literally me in beamng drive
You're not alone in your fantasies about fast driving
i'm sorry to tell you this but due to dark energy the distance between galaxies is expanding far faster than your car speed... (Not to mention our nearest galaxy takes the fastest thing ever - light 2.5 million years to reach)
@@benjaminwasfound2bro like seriously, this is what u came up with
Seriously love the visuals, feels completely surreal
well, it is...I mean, it's awesome...but my brain keeps looping on "internal combustion vehicles in outer space...with no oxygen?" and "384400 km (238850 mile) long highway? How long would it take in a vehicle?"
@@OutcastZ3r0 At 55 mph? 4343 hours, or almost exactly 181 days. Six months, to the Moon, one way.
I loved it too until I noticed the reflection on the windshield doesn't work with the overhang on the instrument panel
Feels like the excitement of being a kid again
@@avincombat939 That bothered me too
I'm so glad to have experienced the good old 80s. Times were very inncoent then. Things were affordable, people were happy comparatively.
It wasn't quite as clear cut as you make out.
No matter where you go, there you are. -Buckaroo Banzai.
I love flying around in my space ship in Elite Dangerous with this on in the background!
Reminds me the time I drove to my hometown on every friday at night. Listened to Kawinsky loud for stay awake. We sold our house and I miss it and the lonely night drives.
"I really have to pee!"
"Next exit son I promise".
hahahah
I keep seeing the sign, but where's that damn off ramp???
oh no 😂
*80 days later*
@@trentdawg2832 lol this is gold🥇
It's music that isn't about anything. It's a bed of sound that takes you where you want it to. No one else's thoughts interrupting your own.
Exactly! Well put
Love that thought!
I love the retro future theme. It's so unique that it's always just hits different no matter what year it is.
Always had dreams of cruising around at night by myself in empty streets. This is almost surreal and brings me back to it.
Not sure what I love the most... The music or the fact the car has pop-up headlights!
This is what I want driving to Mars to be like. Just drivin' and vibin' to music on the way there.
Mark my words, these music WILL BE the pinacle of nostalgia in a couple of decades.
Aye, they will.
Right... the moment....
I like the reflection of the arms over the moon. Kinda like he's taking control of the space around him while he's driving.
*they're taking control
I like that he's holding the steering wheel, like it's some sortof hidden message to always keep your hands on the steering wheel. 🤪
That reflection is the one thing that bothers me. It should be out of focus like the rest of the foreground.
we must protect this mix at all costs
I love the freeway signs, like where else am i gonna go? theres nothing between the moon and earth lmao
peeps keep saying oldtimes, but this is brand new music to the new generation.
Car list so far:
Pov car : Lamborghini countach (driving at 180-220 Kmh)
Orange : BMW M3 E30
Teal/green : Honda Integra
Red and black: Toyota Corolla AE86
Blue : Honda Accord (6th gen)
Silver car with a wing: Toyota celica GT Four

Dang! I spotted the Delorean, but the rest were just different colors to me. You know your cars!
Blue: for sure is not a civic sedan? the form of lights in shape of curve (wave), looks like a civic sedan for me.

@@redindian9216 do you overlay this video with horn honking noises to make it feel more homey?
This brings back such great, peaceful, vivid memories of stretching out lazily on the backseat of my parents' minivan in the mid 90s as we road-tripped it to our vacation cabin on the moon, right on the shore of the Mare Crisium. Always felt like going to another world, and we almost always had the Mare to ourselves since it was a secret hidden gem well-away from the better-known but very touristy Mares. Good times, great memories, thanks mom and dad. 😎🥰
Amazing, love it. I am fortunate to have spent my teen years in the 80's and I see comments about, "a simpler time", or "the good old days", when really, it was being young enough to not know the adult world that awaited me. It was the privilege of having parents who loved and shielded me as best they could. My life was simpler because of their love and sacrifice but as I got older, I learned that this era I have nostalgia for, was my youth and their adulthood and thus, not a "simpler time" or "the good old days" for them. For them, they remarked on the years of their youth. That's just the way it is and with that said, I think I"ll rewatch that 80's episode of Black Mirror, "San Junipero".
It was still simpler, back then. Not all the drama we have today.
@@Briselance
The WEF hadn’t decided it was time to kill us all yet.
In the perfect world, no one is ever in my lane and I do all the passing.

That's so thoughtful and awesome thing to say pal ❤️

Somewhere in between a nostalgic throwback, a dystopian future imagination, and a fever dream. Love it
Driver never said a word, great tunes. 10 Stars.
This helped me make it through some dark time and I'm surfing the synthwave even now when things are much better. Thank you to whoever made this track. 🙏
I want a game that's just this. Driving straight and listening to synthwave music.
Have a look at the game 198X on Steam...
@@anthonynicholson8062 Thanks a ton for that recommendation. I'm definitely going to get it.

The scenery in this video is exactly how I feel driving at night
synthwave is the type of music that can take you to the future and the past at the same time
The De Lorean passing by was epic! LOL
this gives me the feeling of driving a car from the past, where i never lived, in a future, where i will never live, to the moon, where i am never going.
As an 80s 90s kid nostalgia kickin in thanks
Напоминает ночную трассу м4 по дороге на юг! Где движение не прекращается даже ночью! Едешь с мечтаниями о море, отпуске и всего хорошем, ну ещё с такой музыкой , эти мгновения потом в будущем будут вспоминаться с новой силой и ностальгией...! Время, времечко куда ты так мчишься быстро , как по шоссе, не останавливаясь...
Man, this one really got the 80s' juices flowing in my mind. Those were such good times. Proud to be a child of the 80s.
Could you describe that in more detail plz? Why was it a good time? What country where you in at the time? Why are you proud to be a child of the 80s?
@@johnbash-on-ger Not all of it was great tbh, but I suppose you don't notice so much when you're just a child, I enjoyed something's but not all things, I do miss the times with My Dad, Nan and the rest of my relatives but all that's gone long long ago apart from my Dad who passed a few years ago :( I miss him terribly, I try to escape all my pains and heartaches and life with these music tracks/videos but I remember how good the music mostly was in the 80's and the movies but no matter what era we are in we'll always have the issues and problems, I can only imagine 30+ years from now someone saying how these times we are in now were great etc cuz they'll just see it from another prospective when more in the reality isn't as true as on the surface
@@johnbash-on-ger , simpler times but still had technology, video games are just coming played them in the arcades or in a restaurant with friends, went into the music store and bought a record or a cassette, went through to the Blockbuster or the video store the rent a VHS tape you brought home and you watched it with your girlfriend or watched it with the family, soon as you got home from school you went outside to play with your friends no phones no computers, women were a lot more traditional and friendly, we actually had mothers back then, no work b*******.
@@johnbash-on-gerThe 80's had a lit of good things, and there was a sense of optimism that you don't see anymore.
People had a sense of humor, and very little liberal bullshit. Cartoons were SO much better, and things seemed more colorful.
McDonald's was actually still edible back then, and people seemed nicer.
Then the 90's came and everything went to shit.
You see, I am from Argentina but at the moment I am using the translator, the question is that without this music I would never have overcome my depression. thanks synthwave community thanks for everything and much more :).
a and I'm 13 years old right now, it's 03/03/2021 :)
Same but im not from Argentina hope your better keep listening
Find your passion and chase it relentlessly. Life only gets harder as you age. Spend your life doing what makes you happy.

My GOD, this playlist has become an irreplaceable part of my life. Synthwave is amazing. Thank you!
A VR experience of something like this would be awesome
Driving in downtown LA right now has never felt so good listening to this
Kinda wish this was an actual game where you could just drive along this road, occasionally stopping at small hotels and areas, but usually driving into oblivion while songs play, and it sort of transitions visuals as you continue. Like a relaxing desert bus
There is, it's called GTA. Lots of deserts, lots of buses, lots of scenery. You should try it.
@@TheSnowPlowShow lmaoo
This music makes me think about taking a drive with no real destination again. You never know what cool places might be not too far from where you been living.
I love how the 80s viewed the future..
Before liberals and christians destroyed everything.
Very nice mix Virtua Waves! Thanks once again for including my music. It is always an honor. Massive Respect.
No problem! Thank you ❤
it was a far distant past that I still remember being a young person with my family heading to our long distance families on the other side of the Earth while the moon was just hovering over our traveling adventure.
There's something about this one that just really gets to me. I don't think I have one favorite Playlist besides this one.
this is exactly the kind of scenery i was hoping for
I wish there was a VR driving game with an integrated synthwave & chillwave radio where I could drive endlessly while listening to this.
Have you found anything like it?
This is probably the coolest graphics to Syntywave that I've seen yet!
This makes me think of that line from BTTF... "Where we're going we don't need roads"
Oh excellent movie
“I swear, if you kids don’t quit your shit back there, we’re turning around and no ones going to the moon!”
"One of these days Alice...."
This elicits such strong emotions in me. I desperately miss my youth.
This is not the music of the past, this is the music of the future. It is the evolution of what was, and at least it is not inferior to what was then. Some of the tracks are very good, they evoke a feeling of nostalgia or just very enjoyable.
And these are some kind of space
A.L.I.S.O.N - Golden Dust

This is by far the best Synthwave on UA-cam
one of the best for sure
Um brasileiro por essas bandas...
Да, чувак, ты крут! У тебя всегда свободна левая полоса, но куда ты так торопишься?
when fly me to the moon is to expensive you drive there with the never ending cycle of synthwave.
Friend: hey i know a short way
The short way:
I like how the driver's reflection on the moon looks like he's holding it in his hands
This is possibly my favorite chillwave mix of all
Man I miss my childhood when dad used to take us to long drives to the moon!
Those nights back home, thinking about life, the future, that unforgettable love, the illusion of a new one.
The moon is a silent witness of the course of our nights.
Way too close to home on this one.
Very true, can also stir up delusion, full moons are real.
This is me in my 1988 Fiero GT with a cavalier digital tach swap. I wish I could share how awesome it is with you guys.
We used to live in a neighborhood with a guy who had a white one and he sold it to my friend, I rode in it and it was like a time machine. The interior was amazing, it seemed dated (in a good way) but futuristic at the same time. Would you ever post a video with what you're talking about?
Could this be the ultimate vaporwave mix? ... All I know is I love this mix a lot. This is definitely my favorite vaporwave mix I've found on UA-cam.
If you've never owned a VR headset this is the resolution you should expect when you're in there. This video does a good job of showing it for some random reason.
Imagine having that view on the way to work, instead of your kids pointing out the plane, they're pointing out a Ufo and you start to think about all of humanity before you that never got to experience this.
The coolest part about the future isn't that you can drive to the moon on an intergalactic highway. It's that we've evolved to be considerate of other drivers and not clog up the left lane when driving slow.
Perfect music for a intergalactic travel.. you only need to loop it a few hundred million times..
Intergalactic... it’s only a trip to the moon.
@@GugilusVugilusMagnus you can fit all the planets between earth and moon....its a looooong distance especially traveling at highway speed.
