Do you ever listen to a band for the first time and it's love at first listen? Something in your brain magically connects like a loose wire, finally finding its way home. That's what listening to The Midnight was for me. The 80s synthwave spoke to me, and suddenly, I fell down a rabbit hole of needing them on cassette.

The Midnight (one of my favorite synth bands) is dropping their live album on streaming next month and I am unbelievably excited. I've been watching recordings of their most recent tour and it looks cool as fuck. Counting the days for when they go on another tour so I can see em live.
A banda de Synthwave baseada em Los Angeles e formada por Tim McEvan e Tyler Lyle, é também uma das principais referências do movimento musical iniciado em 2007 ao lado de nomes como FM-84, FM Attack, Dana Jean Phoenix entre outros. Neste álbum "Days Of Thunder" lançado em 2014 tem a sonoridade totalmente nostálgica que também remete o ouvinte aos Anos 80. Neste EP destacam-se canções como "The Years (Prologue)", a pulsante "Gloria", a balada Synthpop "WeMoveForward" , o hit principal "Days Of Thunder" - Canção inspirada em "The Boys Of Summer" lançada pelo eterno líder do Eagles, Don Henley em 1984, seguida por "Kick Drums & Red Wine" outra canção que traz nostalgia e nos remete a atmosfera da cultura pop dos Anos 80, incluindo filmes como "De Volta Para O Futuro", "O Último Guerreiro das Estrelas", "O Clube dos Cinco" , "A Garota de Rosa-Shocking", "Top Gun" e sonoridades vistas e revistas em trilhas sonoras de séries da TV da época como por exemplo "Miami Vice". A última faixa "Los Angeles" é quase um tema daqueles verões nostálgicos e quentes da década de 80. Enfim, não é preciso sair do HOJE para visitarmos o passado, a música em si, nos permite a isso.

•You can send messages or situation for the OCs to react to.
•You can ask for multiple but be careful that I might cut this in two parts depending on what is the ask ! So it would be better to name the ones you want so to not wait !
•You can ask some questions about them in more details if you wish.
Examples :
- How are you doing today 'OC name' ?
- How would 'OC name' react to.... ?
- How does 'OC name' look like in more details ?
Those are just examples of course !
•Scenarios and requests ?
So for you to understand better, here's the two different things :
•Scenarios for me are messages that you wrote for an OC, it's a small thing that like happen in the daily life, they tend to be short with not much of a background. It's like repliés if you prefer.
•Requests are more for multiple OCs or full story or headcannons of them, they tend to be way longer than what you think.
•What I will write
•Pairings : I'm comfortable for everything and all gender, well I do have sometimes casualties but it's not a big deal.
•Yandere : I never really wrote about that but I wish to try my hand at it !
•What I will not write
•Nsfw : I've actually read some but I'm not quite sure if I'd be able too do it so for now I don't wish to do that ! But it might change later on, keep that in mind !
No one's coming to save you,
No one's coming to save you,
Swing that sword that you made
With the pain that they gave you
Like the pain is gonna save you
Kill your demons, kill 'em dead
In your mirror, in your bed
In your heart, in your head
Don't you look good in red?
Slay your devils, kill 'em all
Take your throne, paint the walls
And if you make it out alive, hold that bloody head up high.
[Grandia II] More at my blog blisscast.wordpress.com, link in bio. . One of my latest Cex pick-ups! I'm looking forward to playing it eventually (I'd say soon, but given my immense backlog... Lol). Plus, two The Midnight albums and the Narita Boy soundtrack! . I'm currently playing Phantasmagoria, and I should be done with it tonight, maybe. I had never played a point and click FMV adventure game before, and I'm really enjoying it so far. Will definitely look into more of these. Thanks to @magnum_cdi for recommending it to me! Really appreciated. It's your turn to play my beloved Narita Boy now XD. . I've downloaded this new Twitter replacement app called Mastodon, and it seems decent so far, apart from it being a bit slow. If you want to follow me on there, my username is @blisscast as usual. . Before I forget! A hint to the next journal page is in this pic!
