Great effort had been made to keep their identities hidden and, what was more apparent, their material isn’t available to buy.Ĭertainly thanks to NRW you can stream many of their tracks via YouTube, but the band don’t have a Bandcamp or any of their work on the usual streaming services. Sam proceeded to explain that they were a largely secretive duo who haven’t really been seen in public. He then proceeded to jump on YouTube and play me a selection of their tracks.
‘Forêt de Vin! Those dudes are SERIOUSLY good’. I’ll be honest in stating that before that conversation, I had never heard of the group who were soon to become one of my favourite in the scene. With that in mind a friend came back with a round of drinks and said ‘What did you think of Forêt de Vin?’ It’s no secret that when it comes to synthwave, I am more a fan of the lighter synthpop works than I am the darker side of the genre. Timecop 1983’s ‘ Reflections ‘, Le Cassette’s ‘ Left To Our Own Devices ‘, Robert Parker’s ‘ Crystal City ‘. (There always tends to be beer…) We were chatting about not only those pioneer artists of the early 00s who paved the way but also that sweet period around 4 or 5 years ago where it seemed that every new release was an absolute gem. Back in the summer of 2019 I was having a beer with some friends before a synthwave event.
