80s Synthwave/Horror Synth Soundtrack - "Fright At Dusk"

“Fright At Dusk” contains 22 tracks in the genre of synthwave/horror synth. The tracks were inspired by ‘80s pop culture, soundtracks of old slasher films from the ‘80s, prominent composers of the time and soundtracks of popular retro horror games. The tracks were created using (mostly digital) synthesizers and my secret techniques to capture the vintage atmosphere of the time. Some sound effects were created using an electric guitar with the vintage multieffects processor KORG ToneWorks AX1500G.

This asset is not supposed to be a string of random songs, but a soundtrack with the function of being used in video games. Therefore, the tracks were made to suit different scenarios in your game: eerie/tense/creepy/nostalgic/sad scenes, creepy/tense chase sequences, loading screens, in-game radios or TVs or music from a night club, etc. The tracks are especially useful for horror games with a retro style and PS1/PS2/PSX aesthetic. Prime examples are games made by Puppet Combo, Scythe Dev Team, Chilla’s Art, Rayll and other lo-fi horror creators. Note that this pack does not only contain horror tracks. Therefore, games with nostalgic, mysterious or tense scenes have lots of use with this soundtrack as well.
