Darksynth, a subgenre of synthwave, emerged in the early 2010s as a darker, more aggressive offshoot of its nostalgic predecessor. Characterized by heavy, distorted basslines, pulsating rhythms, and ominous synthesizer melodies, darksynth draws inspiration from 1980s horror and action film soundtracks, industrial music, and metal. The genre typically features instrumental compositions with occasional vocal samples or heavily processed vocals. Darksynth's sonic palette includes retro-futuristic synthesizers, driving drum machines, and guitar-like leads, often complemented by modern production techniques. Its aesthetic is rooted in dystopian cyberpunk imagery and themes of violence and technology. While sharing synthwave's '80s nostalgia, darksynth distinguishes itself through its intense, menacing atmosphere and incorporation of elements from hardcore electronic music and metal. The genre has gained a dedicated following in underground electronic music scenes, influencing visual media and fostering a distinct subculture that embraces its dark, retro-futuristic vision.
