    The backing leads have more of a low-pass, polyphonic and detuned sound, as is seen in deep house than a synthwave. The low-beats and the soothing arpeggios make them sythwave-ish. Maybe some new form of synthwave. Pastel Synthwave?

    Example for a deep house lead.

      yeah, idk. Def not vaporwave but it’s some intentional 80s reference. Many of their other songs use a tone wheel which is maybe more synthy, but also I have no idea what I’m talking about.

        You need to listen to more house music— deep house, tech house, and especially classic house and garage from the 80s and 90s.
