She looks pretty close to how my mom did in 1979. Except her office was in Detroit and the company was General Motors. I was 10 years old. In September she will have passed 10 years ago. Sometimes I really miss my mom.
Your mom is forever in your memories and heart and soon or later you gonna re encounter with her... no worries Just keep in mind that this time "without your mom" is like waiting for your flight at the airport (reencounter with all your loved ones included your mom)
Judging by the location of downtown LA, this may be Marina Towers in Marina Del Rey. After a hard day's work, she will go for a run around the Marina and settle into her two-bedroom condo overlooking the sailboats while playing Rosy Music on her Hi-Fi.

Missing a period you never lived is a strange feeling, idk life looked easier back then maybe not easier but there were more to life idk how to explain it, feels weird
I remember 1979 very well, and it neither looked nor sounded like this. If you want to know what it really did look and sound like, search for Video Killed the Radio Star by The Buggles.
@@redicoyote Exactly. Was much easier with pretty much everything beside medicine, health and technology. Working man could support whole family, providing very high standard of living. Getting a good job was not a headache back then...
I sometimes have that feeling too, but I realize that I'm not missing the real time period, just the media reconstruction of it. So basically I'm just liking the aesthetic, nothing more. And I think that you are too
I am very lonely atm. I am liking these tunes, feels like they are giving some degree of expression to the complexity of things I am feeling in my own little world.
Makes me think about those people that drive like they don't want to get to where they are going. "No destination people" my coworker calls them - liminal existences is a better phrase though.
Absolutely great mix that captures the ambiance of the nostalgia perfectly. Teachers smoked in schools, and you could smoke at the airport and in any restaurant without so much as a second glance. Wild times.
@@svalbard01 i believe the synth revolution was late-60s early 70s, but the technology wasn't ubiquitous until the late 70s. Not an expert, but I remember watching a video about this back in the day.
I wouldn't be surprised if it was made by a zoomer with a piss poor understanding of the 70s. Music For Airports maaaaaaybe, but in that case it should've at least been made on authentic 70s Moogs/Rolands or apps that imitated them. I came here expecting krautrock, kosmische music made on primitive synths, space disco perhaps (again using authentic equipment from the era or samples of them), Pink Floyd style space rock, etc. Instead this is just another synthwave/ambient album. Its mostly emulating the 80s if anything.
"Cruising to My Ends" really didn't have to hit that hard, but man what an amazing song. It's like a warm night laying in bed and watching the cityscape blink and fade. After such a long day in the heat of LA to finally coming home to rest and to drift away to sleep.💚 Then out of nowhere "Forever Tonight" comes in with a song that makes one reflect on that One Person long gone. Kind and warm memories with smiles and laughter...and to drift away with the feeling of Saudade.
Always interesting to think back about what life was like, there living it. My dad was in the US in the 70s, wasn't a citizen yet, just trying to establish himself. Vietnam war had officially ended in 75 and America was still coming to terms with it. The hippie movement was officially over and its way of life had changed America in many ways. The civil rights act had been around for over 15 years and many minorities are just trying to establish themselves and get their fair share of the pie while others started slowly losing theirs. It's just so fascinating to think our way of life is normal and that's its always been this way but we always forget about those who came before us and worked their butts off so that we can have all that we do. As I'm sitting here typing this, I wonder what someone in the future watching a video about the 2020's would say? Did we have it easy? Do you feel life has become better in your time? Wherever you are fellow human, take time to appreciate the small wins in life, as I've become older those are the memories I seem to recall the most.
There was a distinctive push and pull between conservative and liberal values. Some people were morally straight people and others embraced hedonism and vulgarity. Both ways of thinking existed side by side, sometimes in the same neighborhood and on the same TV channel. In the same school you had kids who had sex and did drugs walking side-by-side with those who led wholesome lives. The culture no longer said that the wholesome life was the default and correct one. Conservative censorship was slipping, meaning GenX was the first generation to have potential exposure to soft and hard sexual materials in print and video. Conservatives still controlled most of the institutions, but that situation has reversed over the last 45 years. The civils right movement had made talking about race a taboo in polite society.
Living in Norway, the life was different. We struck oil in the 60's, so 70's were very prosperous. I was born late 60's and remember dad driving big s-class Mercedes, and almost always wore his hat and coat to the office. Mom was at home, smoking of course. She was very pretty, a bit like the lady on the picture. They're both gone now, but I stumble upon things I inherited from time to time reminding me of this bygone era. Still have the 60's car I got in my 18th year..
Gorgeous late 80's downtempo synth music, a simple appraisal of the technology available at different times will lead you to this conclusion, I think the shoulder-ads also say "80's" anyway, enough nit-picking... great job on the mix
Love it. Having visited my dad's office that was in a similar location as a kid back then I feel like I can smell the nicotine, wood polish and old leather seat smell along with the smell of physical books/paper.
I love you, whoever you are. I basically invented synthwave in 2013 and now you have become my fav channel because you invented youre own genre too!!!!!!! WE ARE TIME LORDS+
For Oldies like me, this feels more like a sonic journey from the early to mid-80s. I feel like I've been transported back into the storylines of all my favorite films from that era. Thanks for the vibes, the tracks have me completely relaxed while I get my office work done today!
The old thumb and forefinger - quite a rare smoking style, actually... takes a lot of nerve if you want to pull it off... if you get it wrong you can look like a real rookie... this dame's got it down like a boss tho
It’s 1979 and you’re smoking in your Los Angeles office. The view outside your window is from 20 years in the future and your hair is from 30 years in the past.
Its interesting because Los Angeles, being the 2nd largest city in the U.S., for the longest time didn't have a very big skyline compared to other smaller cities. Its changing now big time.
I'd like the house price and rent in LA in 1979 please. Lived there for 17 years. When I moved there in 1998, my one bedroom plus apartment in West Hollywood across the street from Farmer's Market was $650. By the time I left in 2014, that apartment was over 2k. LA used to be a city that you could move to, get a studio apartment in town and a job in retail, restaurant, office, whatever and still live without having to have eight roommates and pay $1300 a month while you did. Forget smoking inside your office, I want that back. People that work in service or that serve power, like being a receptionist at Live Nation or HBO let's say, you could still do that and cut out a living. Now you can't, it's become like Brazil there's only the wealthy and the price of housing forces everyone underneath that to live in tenuous fiscal vulnerability.
Dude I have gone thorugh other music generated by you as well, but you haven't generated any other mix like this. Please, produce more like this one specifically.
I understand every older generation would say their childhood years were best, or that these times today are great -- but I can say this without a shred of doubt that the late 70s and 80s were truly the best of times that the humanity would ever see.
I was a teenager in the 70s, and I would not trade that for anything. It was great. Zep, weed, beer, Trans Ams, girls in shag haircuts and hip-huggers, beaches, what else is there really?
View reminds me of the office I worked in 2018-2020, at 10960 Wilshire in Westwood. View is like the view we had looking towards Century City. I know it's AI art. But still.
Have seen 1979, and used to travel through DTLA every summer to visit family. Later I did some time in one of the skyscrapers on South Figueroa Street. So, yeah, about 7-9 years too early for the music and the visuals. Check out Mike Post's album of LA LAW - the image captures the clothes around 1988, but also check out his "Daybreak" theme. There were cheesy "sexy saxophones" used widely in US music.
Remember 1979. Never smoked. Been to Los Angeles. Have my own office. The vibe, the tone, the aesthetic. Captured perfectly. All that's missing is a decanter of Cutty Sark....
I used to smoke in my 20s. I'm 32 now. Sometimes I miss it, but I remember I used to smoke when I got sad. So it's better that I'm not sad anymore. Everyone has different reasons why they smoke. Sometimes I'll have a cigarette, but that's the exception to the norm these days.
