[Music Discovery] Bag Raiders - Shooting Stars

[johngreenfield]

---

If you're into your memes, there's no doubt you'll have heard this song, but maybe you don't know the artists. Shooting Stars was originally a b-side from Australian electronica duo Bad Raiders's Turbo Love EP which was first released in 2008. Several years after its release, the song began appearing in remix videos employing a synthwave aesthetic, usually involving people falling. In case you're unfamiliar, check out this prime example:

The song was later released as a single and was also included on the bands self-titled album in 2010. It's a great tune, and their album is definitely worth checking out if you're a fan of electronica.
