Popular artists in the French House genre include:ĬOMMANDO NINJA an example of Synthwave Cinema Visual The defining characteristics of the sound are heavy reliance on filter and phaser effects both on and alongside samples from late 1970s and early 1980s American or European disco tracks (or original hooks strongly inspired by such samples), causing thicker harmonic foundations than the genre's descendants.
The genre has also been referred to as "French touch", "filter house" and "tekfunk" over the years. The French House sound first began to develop with the French House genre (popularized by groups like Daft Punk) a style of house music originally produced by French artists that was a popular strand of the late 1990s and 2000s European dance music scene and a form of Euro disco.
While the genre has started to dip in popularity slightly, there is still a very devoted following and a lot of musicians still sell decently. The true proto-synthwave acts came from musical scores of films in the 1980s created by the likes of John Carpenter ( Halloween, The Thing, They Live, etc.), Vangelis ( Blade Runner), and Tangerine Dream ( Firestarter). The music strongly shares some key traits within the French House/ Italo Disco musical genres. The genre is credited as being started by acts such as College, Kavinsky, and Justice, although a fair argument could be made that the first big mainstream album evoking the Synthwave vibe and aesthetic could be traced back to the sophomore Daft Punk album, Discovery. While it is particularly regarded as a musical genre, there are examples of synthwave in movies, TV shows, art, and video games. While it does often get lumped in with Vaporwave, there are significant differences between the two genres.
