Lazerhawk

Lazerhawk, the nom de synth of producer Garrett Hays, is a mainstay in the world of retro-electronic music, commonly known as synthwave or retrowave. Emerging from the vibrant underground music scene of the late 2000s, Lazerhawk has carved out a signature sound that pays homage to the cinematic and musical aesthetics of the 1980s. With a penchant for soaring melodies, driving beats, and a heavy dose of nostalgia, his music encapsulates the neon-soaked ambiance of a bygone era reimagined for the modern age.

The albums "Redline" (2010), "Visitors" (2012), "Skull and Shark" (2013), and "Dreamrider" (2017) serve as milestones in Lazerhawk's evolving discography, each release cementing his status as a cornerstone of the genre. "Redline" races with high-octane energy reminiscent of classic arcade racing games, while "Visitors" probes the thematic expanse of sci-fi and extraterrestrial encounters. "Skull and Shark," a dark and thrilling odyssey, delves into horror tropes with its soundtrack-worthy compositions, and "Dreamrider" sees Hays venturing into lusher, more ethereal sonic territories while still grounded in the retro-futuristic soundscape that defines Lazerhawk's identity. Through his work, Lazerhawk not only revives the spirit of the '80s but also pushes the boundaries of synth-based music, influencing a new generation of artists and listeners alike.
