Recommended Parameters
| Parameter | Value | Why |
|---|---|---|
| COLOR | Neon purple, cyan, magenta, hot pink, teal, sunset orange | These are the quintessential colors of the retrowave aesthetic, crucial for establishing the vibrant, futuristic yet nostalgic mood. Using a combination of 2-3 dominant colors with a complementary accent often works best. |
| TIME PERIOD | 1980s future, Alternate 80s, Future past, Synthwave era | Retrowave is inherently about an idealized, often exaggerated vision of the future as imagined in the 1980s. Specifying this helps Midjourney lean into the anachronistic yet stylish elements. |
| VISUAL STYLE | Synthwave, Vaporwave, Outrun, Dreamwave, Retro-futurism | These styles are direct subgenres of retrowave and provide Midjourney with strong visual cues for the overall aesthetic, influencing everything from color palettes to geometric forms and atmospheric effects. |
| LIGHTING TYPE | Neon strips, Backlit, Glow, Ambient (with specified color) | The lighting in retrowave architecture is often artificial, dramatic, and color-infused. Neon strips and backlit elements are hallmarks, creating sharp contrasts and a sense of otherworldly glow. |
Pro Tips
- 1Experiment with the 'TIME PERIOD' parameter by adding specific years like '1987 future' or 'early 90s cyberpunk vision' to fine-tune the retro-futuristic nuances.
- 2Combine 'ENVIRONMENT' with 'LOCATION TYPE' to create unique settings, e.g., 'ENVIRONMENT: Tropical, LOCATION TYPE: Coastal city' for a Miami Vice-inspired retrowave scene.
- 3Utilize 'COMPOSITION: Symmetrical' or 'COMPOSITION: Central perspective' for a classic, often monumental feel that is common in retrowave art.
- 4Don't shy away from adjectives in your 'TAGS' like 'glossy,' 'reflective,' 'chrome,' 'geometric,' and 'glowing' to enhance material textures and light effects.
- 5For a strong sense of depth and atmosphere, specify 'LIGHTING TYPE: Backlit' or 'LIGHTING: Volumetric' in combination with a dark 'TIME OF DAY: Night' or 'Dusk'.
