The Sound of Soviet Synthpop

“The Sound of Soviet Synthpop” is a sprawling deep dive into the wired, wistful world of electronic pop from the USSR and the former Eastern Bloc. This playlist features a mix of smooth synth lines, electronic drum patterns, and melodies that toe the line between dancefloor nostalgia and late-night radio melancholy. Artists like Маленький принц, Sladkiy Son, and Mirage bring the signature flavor of synth-heavy love ballads and disco-inspired rhythms that defined an era behind the Iron Curtain.

The collection spans from romantic slow-burners like "Ты не забывай" and "Я тебя не хочу потерять" to uptempo cuts like "Нажми на кнопку" by Technology and the remix of "Музыка нас связала." It also taps into rarities and regional gems, with contributions from Latvian outfit Zodiaks and Hungarian composer László Benkö. Whether it’s the bubblegum charm of Roma Zhukov's "Я люблю вас девочки" or the glossy nostalgia of Tatiana Bulanova’s "Ясный мой свет," each track gives a taste of the era’s distinct blend of Western influence and local flair.
