Sorry, folks! I held off as long as I could. It looks like the copyright owners of the track have claimed it, meaning there are now advertisements in the video. I do not personally see a dime of the money earned off of these ads. I wanted this to be ad-free, but I suppose this move was inevitable. It was nice while it lasted.
Other info about this track and other synthwave/retrowave related stuff:
Ever since hearing this theme on Netflix as it automatically played on my PS4 system, I had to hear it again. I also wanted to play it out, because that's what I do best when I come across new music that I love. I figured I'd share the wealth and put together a 10+ minute extended version of the track.
This extended version blends the intro credits score with the outro credits score. There are subtle differences. The intro theme plays in conjunction with the animated text sequence. The black screen parts of the video, in general, are the outro theme.
Music composed by Kyle Dixon and Michael Stein of S U R V I V E. You can listen to more of their fine work here (PLEASE support the artists' work!!):
