MEGAHIT
WHO AM I?
Outrun warrior from Hungary. Megahit is a retrowave / synthwave / outrun music project from Budapest, Hungary, which started its magnificent adventure in July 2015. Delivering 1980s inspired electronic beats with a neon-glowing touch of retrofuture atmosphere.
THE SOUND
Analog feelings in a digital world. My sound is aimed to represent a glimpse of classic analog 80s synthesizer atmospheres, put in a modern 21st century environment. My music can be divided into light and dark sides: the former representing the joyful, “palm trees and sunshine” kind of 80s dance vibes, while the latter is a dystopian, post-apocalyptic, cyberpunk[ish] world with an overall negative touch.
THE GEAR
Balance between hardware and software. I’m not the typical “hardware is better” kinda guy. I use both HW and SW when creating music. I use hardware synths to help myself present my music on stage. They are hardly used in the recording process itself, so they really give the liveacts a special touch. At the moment my gear consits of the following:
- Korg R3
- Roland Boutique JU-06
- Roland Boutique JX-03
- Roland Aira TB-3
- Alesis Recital Pro digital piano
- Arturia Microbrute
- Arturia Beatstep & Keystep (for sequencing)

INSTAGRAM FEED
Follow me on Instagram. Apart from my graphic works I collect various synthwave-related imagery. 3D renders, digital paintings, concept art, artistic photographs – basically anything that has an 80s retrofuturistic touch to it. You can also track my production flow and liveacts through my stories.
MUSIC VIDEOS
Follow me on YouTube. Here you can find a few videoclips I made for my tracks. These are the the “so-called” official music videos of my tunes. I regularly feature these in my liveact visuals, along with other 80s / synthwave / cyberpunk related footage and films. Enjoy!
