Fixions – Gritty Cyberpunk Synthwave

Imagine this: neon lights buzzing overhead, rain slicking down chrome streets, and the distant echo of a bassline that feels like it’s coming from the underground of a city that doesn’t sleep. That’s the world Fixions creates — a soundscape where cyberpunk dreams and synthwave aesthetics collide in the grimiest, most electrifying way possible.

Fixions isn’t just music. It’s a full-on immersion into a dystopian fantasy — one that smells faintly of ozone and rebellion. If your brain could wear a leather jacket and light a cigarette, this is what it would soundtrack itself with.

 

What is Fixions Anyway?

Let’s break it down. Fixions is the moniker of a French electronic music producer who blends cyberpunk, dark synthwave, and gritty industrial elements into something that feels like a hacker war breaking out inside a Blade Runner sequel. It’s aggressive, but melodic. Chaotic, but calculated.

You’re not just listening — you’re riding through some digital underworld with circuits in your veins and neon in your eyes.

And no, you don’t need to wear a VR headset to enjoy it. But if you did, you’d probably look amazing in one of those Newretro.Net bomber jackets while doing it. Just saying.

The Sound of the Streets at Night

Fixions creates soundtracks for people who imagine the world differently. This isn’t your everyday coffee shop synthwave. It’s synthwave with teeth. Think:

  • Dirty basslines that growl like a cybernetic tiger

  • Retro drum machines tuned for a rebellion

  • Layered synths that sound like laser beams in a rainstorm

  • Melodies that ride the line between hope and total system collapse

It’s not just about nostalgia. It’s about reimagining the future through the past — gritty VHS tapes, dusty arcades, analog errors, and all.

Listening to Fixions is like being chased by rogue androids down a back alley while trying to hotwire a hoverbike. It’s thrilling. It’s cinematic. It’s a little terrifying. And honestly? It kind of makes you want to dress the part.

(See where we’re going with this?)

Dressing the Cyberpunk Part

If you're vibing with Fixions, odds are you've got a soft spot for that cyberpunk-meets-80s aesthetic. You know the one — torn denim, black leather, reflective shades, a walk that says “I don’t follow the rules, I rewrite them.”

And that’s where Newretro.Net fits right in. We’re not here to sell you some cheesy costume. Our stuff is made for everyday outlaws — dudes who want to dress like they’ve got a data heist at 3 and a rooftop party at 5.

What you’ll find:

  • Leather jackets that look like they’ve been through wars (in the best way)

  • Sneakers that belong in a Tokyo alleyway at midnight

  • Retro watches that feel like they could control time (they can’t… yet)

  • Sunglasses that scream “main character energy”

Basically, gear that makes you look the way Fixions makes you feel.

But Back to the Music...

Fixions doesn’t just drop tracks — he crafts entire concept albums that unfold like graphic novels without the panels. Each record is a story, a world, a glitching transmission from a parallel universe.

One album might sound like a descent into a techno-dystopia ruled by AI. Another might feel like the resistance is rising, and you’re the one holding the detonator.

Some themes you’ll find across his work:

  • Oppressive surveillance states

  • Cyber-enhanced rebels fighting back

  • Futuristic noir vibes

  • The tension between man and machine

  • Love stories told in data streams

It’s rich, cinematic, and always, always dripping in atmosphere.

If you’re the kind of person who thinks, “I’d rather get lost in a neon city than a forest,” then congratulations — you’re already halfway to being a Fixions fan.

Where to Listen

You’ll find Fixions on all the major platforms — Spotify, Bandcamp, YouTube — lurking like a data ghost in the digital shadows. Pop on some headphones, step outside, and pretend your walk to the store is a high-stakes mission in a retro-future thriller.

Pro tip: This music hits differently at night. Especially when you’re rocking a black denim jacket and it’s just started to rain. Coincidence? We think not.

Fixions and the Evolution of Synthwave

Synthwave has come a long way. What started as a nostalgic tribute to 80s soundtracks has splintered into a dozen subgenres. There’s chillwave, outrun, darksynth — and then there’s Fixions, dragging synthwave into the back alley and giving it a robotic arm and a scar across its face.

He’s part of the new wave of artists who aren’t content with just homage. They're mutating the genre, adding teeth, making it more cinematic and immersive.

Some might call it darksynth. Others might label it cyberpunk EDM. Honestly? Fixions doesn’t care what you call it — as long as you feel it.

And trust us: you will.

Why Fixions Feels So… Real

There’s a certain authenticity to Fixions' work. You can tell he’s not just playing around with presets or recycling familiar 80s tropes for the sake of it. He’s building worlds — full, breathing, glitching, electric worlds.

His tracks feel like they belong in a movie that doesn’t exist yet — the kind of cult cyberpunk film that plays at underground midnight screenings, with a few hundred die-hard fans quoting lines that never hit the mainstream.

You know that moment in a film where the camera pans over a futuristic skyline and the synths swell dramatically? That’s where Fixions thrives. He doesn’t just score that moment. He is that moment.

And if you ever needed the perfect soundtrack to throw on while doing something borderline questionable (not illegal, just...questionable), Fixions has your back.

The Soundtrack to Your Life (or at Least a Side Mission)

A huge part of Fixions’ appeal is how well his music fits into everyday life… if your everyday life includes pretending you’re in a neo-noir cyber-thriller. Some ideal use cases:

  • Late-night coding sessions (bonus points for green terminal screens)

  • Drawing concept art for your own futuristic graphic novel

  • Working out in a dimly lit garage, surrounded by half-built tech

  • Driving through the city with nowhere to go but everywhere to be

  • Trying on your Newretro.Net jacket in the mirror while imagining you’re the lead in a retro-future action game (we’ve all done it)

Honestly, Fixions' music has that rare quality: it makes everything feel cooler. Your walk gets a little more intense. Your stares get a little more mysterious. Your coffee? Feels like it was brewed in a high-tech bunker.

The Look That Matches the Sound

Let’s talk synergy.

What you hear with Fixions — that blend of retro grit and futuristic sharpness — is exactly the kind of energy we bring at Newretro.Net. This isn’t some shallow aesthetic, it’s a lifestyle. One part nostalgia, one part rebellion, all parts badass.

What you wear should match what you're about. So if you're out there blasting dark synth bangers while dodging real-life responsibilities like a futuristic bounty hunter, why not look the part too?

  • Black denim jackets that look like they’ve survived dystopias

  • Sunglasses that could double as HUDs

  • Sneakers made for rooftop escapes and neon-drenched alley chases

  • Watches that belong to time travelers with unfinished business

We built Newretro.Net for guys who live outside the algorithm — who don't just scroll, they rewrite the code.

Fixions and the Future of Music

So where does Fixions go from here?

If the trajectory holds, deeper into the unknown. His sound is evolving — more layered, more cinematic, more ambitious. You get the sense that he’s scoring a story we haven’t seen yet. Maybe even a future we haven’t lived through.

And the best part? He’s not alone. There’s a whole underground of synthwave renegades like him — pushing boundaries, distorting the past to paint a more radical future.

It’s music with an identity. A mission. A pulse.

And for anyone out there who’s felt like they don’t quite belong in the clean-cut present — who’ve always imagined something a little more neon, a little more tech-noir, a little more alive — this music speaks your language.

Fixions isn’t just a vibe. He’s a signal.

Final Thought: You're Already Part of the World

If you’ve made it this far, you’re not a casual listener. You’re part of the movement — part of that digital underground shaping a future where the past never really went away, it just evolved into something cooler.

You’re the type of person who doesn’t just follow trends. You curate moods. You build playlists that punch like film scores and dress like a rebel from a time machine.

And when you throw on a Fixions track while slipping into a Newretro.Net jacket, you’re not playing pretend. You’re stepping into character.

Because the future isn’t coming. It’s already here. And it's got a killer soundtrack.
