Scandroid - Empty Streets

Scandroid, the modern Synthwave project from Detroit based artist/producer Klayton, best known for his multi-genre project Celldweller, is Klayton’s love letter to the 80s.
The debut, self-titled album features 15 tracks, ranging from the driving instrumental energy of "Destination Unknown," to melodic vocal tracks like "Awakening With You," "Aphelion," and "Neo-Tokyo," rounded out with the cinematic epics "2517" & "Singularity." As a child of the 80s, Klayton has also included a cover of the classic Tears For Fears song "Shout," that he has been patiently waiting to cover since he first heard the song on U.S. radio in 1985. The digital album concludes with a bonus remix from synthwave artist Waveshaper. The 72 minute album depicts themes of a cyberpunk future where humans and sentient robots struggle to find a connection in their dystopian world.

One of the best pixel art animations i've ever seen

[@fulgrimthephoenician5187]

I found this song via a mod on stellaris and lemme tell you watching my cyborg and synthetic civilization take control of the galaxy with this song blasting is glorious

[@rambozeta]

[@A_quip]

80's synthwave music mod?
best stellaris mod

[@DomyTheMad420]

or... like... the present i guess?

[@overlords2722]

No way! I did too

[@DigiDoesStuff]

Might I ask what mod that was? Assuming it's not outdated by now

[@heededshadow509]

Found this exact song in my discovery playlist for spotify. Now I've been listening to this artist nonstop.

[@nuadasilverlance1289]

Wow, that is such a good Music Video to this Song, very well done !

[@netardehulous8505]

Animattronic did such outstanding work making this video, it doesnt receive the credit it deserves, the track itself is more relevant now than ever "The future has been redesigned - its hard to focus on it when im running out of time"

[@lacunacoilguardian]

As a fan of celldweller I love scandroid the artist behind both Clayton is amazing

[@Matthieupetel]

Very cool song, awesome pixel art and especially great work on typography !!

[@flightofdaws8275]

This is the best Wave I´ve ever listened to! What a blast!

[@ElEminnoPee]

Who else noticed Neurachem beat near the end? I see you, Klayton!

[@vladinemir2600]

Wow what a nice idea for the lyrics.

[@fazpal]

I heard this song a while ago, but I've never seen the video, now it's one of my favorites' music videos. When I watched it for the first time, I was like: HELL YEAH!

[@paulj.gonzalez5287]

Klayton, 7 years later and I am still amazed by every single second of it.
Your God-given talents for producing music are truly invaluable

[@zchrome688]

Such an underated artist such awesome songs thanks Scandroid

[@RyleaLynn706]

Discovered this song after listening to the Parasite Inc. version on their "Dead and Alive" album. It didn't sound like their usual style so I went to find the original, and I like what I'm hearing!

[@darkside7802]

Maybe I’d spend money on getting Cyberpunk if the game had any of this type of music. But alas, I’ll save my cash for a game that actually fucking gets it. Maybe one day.

[@metroidsax1]

Recently found a Mod for Cyberpunk 2077 which changes the entire soundtrack to Scadroid. And I refuse to drive until this is on

[@spacep0d]

I dig it! Love the retro pixels! :D

[@MaticTheProto]

Epic song!

[@StServal]

This is dope!

[@jonathanpare9233]

[@renvalaria5870]

[@corros1ve]

Best Synthwave song ever.

[@IsraelSmithD]

Agreed

[@Aurea_Borealis]

- I'm Aphelion. -

[@DLockholm]

The moment that changed everything, for Red at least

[@logandekmarques8412]

Yes, this album has *lore*. There's even the beginning of the story, called Scandroid origins, which is a free E-book of like 5 pages.

[@bez_znaczenia]

@@logandekmarques8412 TLDR of the story/lore?

[@logandekmarques8412]

@@bez_znaczenia The story of the first album (Scandroid) happens in 2517 and is about a guy named Red, who falls in love with Aphelion, an android.
The album has 2 flashbacks, one that is this song (empty streets) and 1 that is the song "pro-bots & Robophobes".
I Highly recommend starting with the 5 page novel Scandroid Origins (prequel to the album) in order to start investigating.
The story is spread around the songs, but you should get an Idea of what are the places and characters.

[@bananabr1331]

Anyone else noticed the Blue Stahli reference?

[@shuyaku99]
