Danny from Game Grumps mentions a band called Night Runner and their album Starfighter, I don't even wait for him to explain. Awesome name, awesome music.
Love it when Danny starts spitting out music like this, it's always good. And that's from a guy who loves death, black and thrash metal. They should make this a thing, Dannys Weekly Music-listentothisordie.

It's 2018, sick of the commercialization of 80's nostalgia yet? I know I am. And your statement is rather pathetic honestly. Not that this album isn't dope as f*ck.
A gaming channel that really likes good music and thought it was a shame that this sexy album didn't have the recognition it deserved and told hundreds of thousands of people to go check it out
honestly, this genre is awesome. if i had to recomment 3 artists though (its hard to choose just 3 tbh) id go with Scandroid, The Midnight (their album called nocturnal is awesome. The first song, Shadows, is my fave atm, topped streamline by pendulum which was my fave for like, 10 years or so) and finally but definitely not least is The Toxic Avenger (his older music is a little random but his latest stuff is awesome, particularly his songs made for the game Furi. his latest EP is rather gloomy though, but i love it) Then you have the likes of GUNSHIP, Carpenter Brut, Kavinsky, Timecop83 and FM-84. tbh, theres so many great artists, takes too long to find them all tbh
@@XenonArcher The Midnight are cool I like their music too and can I also recommend you check out FM-84 and their album called Atlas. Also the artist 'Gunship' and their album Dark all day is my favourite by them. Last but not least is the artist 'Lazerhawk' and I like the album called 'Redline' but the other two are also good. Hope you enjoy!
@@Chaggy1978 ive known all of those for years. mainstream synthwave artists. go check out Kallax, Caspro, Tonebox and The toxic avenger. i also mentioned fm-84 and gunship in my comment :/
@@XenonArcher Thanks for sharing. i imagine u've also discovered Carpenter Brut and Pertubator. They share a similar vibe, yet approach it differently, imo (I feel that is not exactly the same genre as this album, though. Those two seem havier and way more agressive). Also Trevor Something is worth mentioning. He is extraordinary good in composing his tracks. The level of detail is quite impressive and his vocal parts are not just catchy, but also sound almost spellbining.
I am the kind of person who usually needs to hear songs a few times before I start bopping and stuff to them because it needs to be familiar. I also tend to like songs more the more times I hear them. On my first listen through, I think every single song got me right away. That's not supposed to happen is it? Good stuff, fellas.
*raises hand* I'm here because of Danny Sexbang. This shit is dope. I listened to this album in one sitting, and took a nap. Suddenly, I had a dream I was flying through space with a Jewish super hero, a killer ninja, and a guy known as "the video game boy," and he said he's the one who wins.
it's amazing how much power the Game Grumps have, just because this was mentioned thousands of people gave this video tons of traffic and it turn probably some good money to the band. I just paid for the album, I hope you all are as well
+Ashby Laws I don't think so actually, I imagine that they've claimed the video so that they get the cash even though it's on this guys channel, this is probably the case since such a large and recognized video would have definitely been busted by now if they claimed the money from it which means the only other thing that could've happened would be the video getting taken down, which has clearly not happened. So yeah, Night Runner should be doing fine.
It's After Hours... I witnessed The Invaders coming through Starlight, while I was about to Ride The Sky. They came bringing Roses & Blood, and as they were Almost There, I gazed upon the appearance of The Sentinels, who bore a device that had a Nuclear Countdown on it's main circuit. Then I contacted The Driver, informing him about the massacre and Murder In Miami that was about to go down... So, he called upon the might of Night Runner and gave an end to all, with the help of his trusty Starfighter...
+Spyros Kokkos Even Night Runner liked it ! Look :) facebook.com/233133380221645/photos/a.250839898450993.1073741827.233133380221645/456674404534207/?type=3&theater
+Spyros Kokkos Alrighty then; picture this if you will. 10 to 2 AM, X, Yogi DMT, and a box of Krispy Kremes, in my "need to know" pose, just outside of Area 51.Contemplating the whole "chosen people" thing with just a flaming stealth banana split the sky like one would hope but never really expect to see in a place like this. Cutting right angle donuts on a dime and stopping right at my Birkenstocks, and me yelping... Holy fucking shit! Then the X-Files being, looking like some kind of blue-green Jackie Chan with Isabella Rossellini lips and breath that reeked of vanilla Chig Champa, Did a slow-mo Matrix descent out of the butt end of the banana vessel and hovered above my bug-eyes, my gaping jaw, and my sweaty L. Ron Hubbard upper lip and all I could think was: "I hope Uncle Martin here doesn't notice that I pissed my fuckin' pants." And after calming me down with some orange slices and some fetal spooning, E.T. revealed to me his singular purpose. He said, "You are the Chosen One, the One who will deliver the message. A message of hope for those who choose to hear it and a warning for those who do not." Me. The Chosen One? They chose me!!! And I didn't even graduate from fuckin' high school.
Lovelies, I have brought to your attention that this whole fucking album is amazing. This ENTIRE album! Night Runner, A++. Dan, thanks for the recomendation.
I don't ever comment but i will say this a masterpiece of the synthwave genre. Truly a fantastic album. In my opinion Night Runner, Wolf and Raven, Carpenter Brut and Perturbator are the epitome of the genre, each in their own individual, masterful ways
Written to After Hours Riding down this dark road with thunderlight cracking down on the stone the asphalt liquifies slides like a river going double time mind all open like the 12 cylinders engine roaring perpetual motion
Found it because I was looking for it, basically. Went down the rabbit hole starting with late 80s and early 90s electronic acts and ended up at synthwave. I also recommend checking out goth ethereal and dungeon synth, not as popular, very hit or miss, but the good stuff is really good.
@@frothfrenzy MGMT's Little Dark Age must have been heavily influenced by ethereal goth/darkwave. I didn't even know that was a genre until your post. Thanks man.
Dan is part of the popular Let's Play channel Game Grumps and on episode 32 of their The Legend of Zelda : Ocarina of Time play through, he expressed grief over seeing good music that didn't have the recognition he believed it deserved. He gave this album/musical group as an example and so the viewers swarmed to it. He has done this multiple other times with other songs, and so there are times when you will stumble upon a song and the comments will just be a flood of Game Grumps fans.
I think the soundtrack of Blade Runner was really influential. That's probably the furthest that you can track it back, and where the cover art style comes from.
Sounds like what you would listen to if you wanted to hop on the highway and drive as fast as your T-Top Camaro can go. I can't think of any other reason for it. From imgur with love 😋

I'm here at the recommendation of Danny Avidan of the Game Grumps
Game Grumps should do music advertisements on the side because this is just golden. i love it.Thank you Danny.
it's fun to see so many grump fans agree on something
I've never bought an album so fast after listening to just part of a TH-cam thing.
My new gaming soundtrack

I also tend to like songs more the more times I hear them. On my first listen through, I think every single song got me right away. That's not supposed to happen is it? Good stuff, fellas.
Reminds me of 80s action movies. Thanks Danny Dan and the Bunky Frunch for the great suggestions in music.

unfortunately they wont make any money off of this video because this isnt their channel
+Ashby Laws Albums yo, don't forget about the albums yo.
Ashby Laws they can make money through band camp

So yeah, Night Runner should be doing fine.
No idea who that Grumps guy is, but it's always great when people promote good stuff

This popped up after the "Phantasm Soundtrack". I am not sure why, but I am also not disappointed.
Came here after Dan on Game Grumps mentioned this. very glad I did. This music's awesome.
Thanks to the boost in popularity, Night Runner's music is now available on Spoofy. #grumppbump

Unless the game has music already and it overlays and sounds terrible
***** in most games you can turn the music down individually

Danny Avidan of Game Grumps recommended you guys and you did not disappoint. Amazing stuff.
It's so obvious that a guy like Dan would be all about the synthwave
which episode do I need to watch to hear gamegrumps talk about synthwave?
Thanks for recommending this Danny!
All of these comments are talking about how gamegrumps suggested this band and thank god Dan did because they are amazing
I maybe a fullout Metalhead....but i l0ve this* sound....best time to listen to this,when your tired....your mind goes surfing....awesome🤘🤙
Seems like a lot of my fellow metalheads got bit by the synthwave bug.
Dat soundscape...

He has done this multiple other times with other songs, and so there are times when you will stumble upon a song and the comments will just be a flood of Game Grumps fans.

Greetings, Starfighter.
Thanks to All the Techies who made this Music Posting Possible. 😊😊😊 Incredible Synth Sounds!!
whoever said there isn't good modern music hasn't discovered synthwave artists
Sounds like the soundtrack to a cool sci fi movie. Music seems to tell a story of some sort. Really enjoying iy
+Cameron Reyno I imagine Tron
I think the soundtrack of Blade Runner was really influential. That's probably the furthest that you can track it back, and where the cover art style comes from.
Game Grumps brought me here
Take the car for a ride at midnight without reason, just ride away, listening to that music and dream
GREAT SCOTT!!! I remember when this video barely had 50,000 views
TH-cam brought me here, and... Thanks so much for this TH-cam, thanks so much.
Right now Dan is listening to this somewhere in the world.
i'm just now discovering this...!? this completes my life
I'm glad TH-cam has made radio obsolete...great sounds on this album
Sounds like what you would listen to if you wanted to hop on the highway and drive as fast as your T-Top Camaro can go. I can't think of any other reason for it. From imgur with love 😋
visions of *The Wraith* come to mind.
Bodhi Safa lol yeah it does. good ass 80s movie
I've done it in my T-Top; it's a pretty euphoric experience.
Is it weird to be born in the late 90s and really like this type of 80s music?
Like people who were born in the early 80's & hated it.... tbh...it was shite..... (^_X)
Apart from the films... a golden era for that no doubt.
This part of the 80s culture has the retrospective kind of value. You should try heavy metal from the mid-80s though. Somehow it's similar to this.
This album takes me back to everything great in the 80's...the magic times of my youth.
That delightful feeling when you discover a completely new genre of music to listen to...
