We've all heard this revivalist sound pop up at one time and place or another since, what, 2007? …but I've never quite gotten a handle on what genre of music this is made out to be, exactly:
…what is it that I'm listening to, here? 'Indie Dance?' 'Nu Disco?" 'Neo New Wave?' Yeah, I know it's the musical component to that broader trend of nostalgically repackaging all things 80's, but I'm looking for help with some genre tags, here. |

| Synth pop, New wave? |

| So this is nothing more nuanced than simply being modern synthpop (and 'modern', as in 'produced this decade'). |

| First one sounds like Depeche Mode. Second one a little like futurepop. Third one... shoegaze-dance? Whatever, it's all essentially still new wave / darkwave / synth-pop. Genre's got enough of a lineage to have modern musicians making the stuff un-ironically. |
