Aztec Records is a Record Label and creative hub from London, UK showcasing the best artists in Retrowave, Synthwave and Synthpop music.
These are genres that are heavily influenced by the nostalgic synth sounds of the 80s, but sometimes with a current sound added to the mix. The visuals and graphics often take that decade for inspiration, and transport you to one of the best decades in music history. It's an homage to our favourite 80's artists, but keeping the sound current and relevant.
We began our journey in 2010 and we quickly became a household name for some of the best Retrowave, Synthwave and Synthpop artists in the world. We discovered and launched the careers of world-class acts like NINA, LAU, Sunglasses Kid, The Lightning Kids, Kidburn, Space Tourist, Bunny X, Kidburn and Simon Gabriel to name just a few.
Come and discover some of the best artists out there, before anyone else. We upload new videos every week so subscribe and stay tuned!

Forty years ago, @madonna didn’t just release yet another album. With ‘True Blue’, she redefined Pop’s relevance and how to build an era 👑
Five singles, five images and one unstoppable pop machine. From “Live to Tell” to “La Isla Bonita”, ‘True Blue’ was the moment she stopped chasing pop culture and started designing it 🎨

In 1986, Vince Clarke was starting again. Again. @depechemode, @yazooinfo and The Assembly, he still needed a new voice to bring warmth, theatre and heartbreak into the machines 🎹
Then Andy Bell arrived and ‘Wonderland’ became the strange, imperfect beginning of @erasureinfo. Bright synths, wounded choruses, dancefloor sadness and the first glimpse of something much bigger ✨
It wasn’t the big breakthrough that we imagine today. But these are the records where Erasure started becoming Erasure. One beautiful, overlooked pop song at a time 💔
