This week on Synthpop Symphony 297 — we’re diving deep into the heart of synth-driven sound with a lineup that spans decades and dimensions.

We’ll start with Andy Bell of Erasure and his stunning new remake of “Xanadu” — originally by Olivia Newton-John and ELO — followed by his collaboration with Claudia Brücken of Propaganda on “Love Oneself” from the Electric Blue LP.

Then we turn back the clock with Boxcar’s classic “Freemason (You Broke the Promise)” from 1990 before jumping into a massive Mini-Mix featuring A-ha’s “I’ve Been Losing You,” the brand-new Nine Inch Nails remix from Tron: Ares, an electrifying “Blue Monday” remake by DeSoffer, and the timeless Pet Shop Boys anthem “Always On My Mind.”

The new music keeps coming — with Lights of Euphoria and their incredible track “Machines of Light,” Epriin with “Boy Before,” and a retro flashback from Michael Cretu on “Samurai” in the DJ Plastikk Retro Disco Remix.

We’ll also revisit Echo Image and their 2021 standout “Walk My Mind,” plus Steven Kimber — also known as Vanello — with “I Wanna Be the One” (Project Radio Mix), and wrap the hour with a newly extended remix of *Madonna’s “rare track Gambler.”

All that and more — in one power-packed episode blending 80s legends, modern innovators, and future classics.

And in hour two — it’s Sinister Nights: In the Mix, a full hour of deep, dark, and beautifully cinematic synth and disco energy.
