Hidden Gems & Guilty Pleasures: Midnight Danger (Sweden)

Midnight Danger (Synthwave // Sweden)

Midnight Danger is a retro/horror/synthwave artist based in Stockholm, Sweden.

“Midnight Danger is a nostalgic soundtrack experience full of synthesisers and guitar riffs, delivering lots of power, punch and retro vibes. When performing live, Midnight Danger also provides a synchronised light show with spectacular fixtures and props, making the audience go through some sort of theatrical horror movie experience.”

Rising star Midnight Danger brings an electrifying fusion of influences to the music scene. Conceived by producer and guitarist Chris Young in late 2015, this music endeavour draws inspiration mainly from synthwave music, ’80s metal, and classic horror.

Midnight Danger crafts a nostalgic soundtrack journey with pulsating synthesizers, driving rhythms, and a cinematic essence that instantly transports listeners back to the era of neon lights, arcade games, and VHS tapes. While evoking a sense of nostalgia for the 1980s, their tracks also add modern production techniques to create a unique fusion of old and new.

With three full-length albums, numerous singles, and a trail of sold-out physical albums, Midnight Danger’s music has resonated worldwide, garnering millions of plays and streams. Also renowned for captivating live performances, Midnight Danger recently returned to the stage following three-year hiatus, reaffirming their commitment to thrilling the fans and continuing to illuminate the synthwave landscape.
