If I were to make my own top 10 Synthwave list, I'd definitely have Perturbator, DWTD, Meteor, d.Notive and GosT in there.

Begun, the 2017 yoinkening has!
So, I've finally got around to listening to The Summoner's soundtrack. Man, I should've listened to it sooner because it's really good!
Bandcamp link: https://lazerdiscs.bandcamp.com/album/the-summoner-original-soundtrack
There's plenty of variety on it, too. Lots of uptempo tracks with a dark twist, a few great vocal tunes and some sinister, moody tracks. Give it a listen!
My favourite tracks are listed below.
Waveshaper & Irving Force - Retaliation
d.notive - Fire In Your Eyes
Dream Fiend - Pest Control

I might have to calm the yoinking in 2017, maybe not, we'll see soon.
At least 2016 was healthy!

Pretty jealous of a few of these, Waveshaper and Volkor X specifically.
You also reminded me that I haven't added Confrontational to my list.

2016 was a amazing year for synth, hope 2017 is better.

Not sure if this one was posted but it's been on repeat for the last few days. Great album, with fantastic vocals by Katie Petix. Some damn good darkwave.

Hi guys,
Only just noticed this OT. Wavesynth is only something I got into a few months ago and until now was not really even aware what the genre title was called.
I've mostly listened to some stuff by Dynatron, Perturbator, Waveshaper and Megadrive. I'm finding I am very pick and mix with the songs even amongst the same artists which I thought would share a style in their albums.
I'm looking for some suggestions in the vein of something that suits driving at night. I know that is a terrible description, but something more akin to:
Future Club - Perturbator
Barbarella Reloaded - Evanton
I am the Program - Megadrive
It's Supercharged - Botnit
Industrial Sector 3083 - Bourgeoisie
I hope those examples give you an idea of what style I am looking for (if you even understand from that garbage I wrote).
Also, that Powerglove work for Trails of the Blood Dragon was pretty damn great.

Nicely priced. I'm giving it a sample and immediate impression is that it's not for me, but I'll give it a deeper listen soon.

Merch at GosT / Perturbator is seriously lacking. Lots of vinyls though
From this release Fade Away, Something About You and Miami Nights are my favorite
