The Rise of The Synths Companion Album: Com Truise Is A Featured Artist!

Lakeshore Records is pleased to announce that a new, original track by Com Truise will be featured on the highly-anticipated The Rise of The Synths Companion Album, coming this Spring!  Lakeshore previously released the soundtrack to slasher film, GirlHouse, which features the track, “VHS Sex” by Com Truise (preview the album here).  We can’t wait to let you hear all the wonderful synthwave just dying to be released into the world!

Com Truise is one of the many personas of producer and designer Seth Haley, born and raised in upstate New York and operating out of a 12’-overrun apartment in Princeton, New Jersey. An admitted synth obsessive, Com Truise is the maker of an experimental and bottom heavy style he calls “mid-fi synth-wave, slow-motion funk”.

The Rise of The Synths Companion Album will be out this spring. Listen to the debut single here.

The Rise of The Synths Companion Album Will Feature Lazerhawk

The latest artist reveal on the upcoming The Rise of The Synths Companion Album is Austin-based Lazerhawk, who will contribute a new, original track.  Follow the band on Facebook for band updates!

A founding member of Rosso Corsa, Lazerhawk is Garrett Hays from Austin, Texas, USA. His outrun electro is robot pop mixed with dark synths and the occasional lyric. Two years ago I described him as reminiscent of everything that was good in the ’80s: synthesizer jams with gargantuan leads, hard toms, spaced-out melody and the pains of being pure at heart. Since then he has experimented with chill wave and disco, but with a fundamental link to the ’80s.

The Rise of The Synths Companion Album will be out this spring. Listen to the debut single here.
