Forum: Music

I'm looking forward to seeing how much people enjoy vaporwave in this small community we have so far. What's your favourite music in the vaporwave scene/movement/genre?


And if you're not familiar with vaporwave and want to know what it has to offer, don't hesitate to ask me anything about it. Trust me, I got a lot of different recommendations under my belt.

Ones that I know:

Lazerhawk
Night Tempo
Bodyline
Bl00dwave
LDCN
New Arcade
Lucy in Disguise

I know some of these may be more like synthwave. I'm a bit new to the modern scene. I kinda just go like "eeeeee music from my childhood" and lunge at it. I mostly just listen to mixes esp. while at work so I don't always catch the artists.

Ecco chamber by Blank Banshee. I love the use of the Columns track Clotho as its main motif.

They kind of leak into other genres, but 

E M P T Y  A I S L E S - American Disillusion  (My absolute favorite. Should have totally blown up Listened to this while working at a mostly empty Family Dollar in a coastal town. Super chill and haunting.)


Neon Palm Mall - SPLIFF RADIOショー (A total classic, super relaxing to listen to) 

NEWS AT 11 - 猫 シ Corp.  (Absolutely essential, all their music is up free for download on bandcamp. Definitely check them out if you haven't)

It's interesting to see the subtle split between the pioneering "chopped n' screwed RnB" strain of vaporwave/mallsoft, and the more recent manifestations of vaporwave that's slowly shifting into musical territory unheard of, taking on ambient, dancefloor, or even more haunted dungeoneer permutations.

It's what atmospheric black metal would sound like if guitars had never been invented. But seriously though, this has to be one one of the most surprising "post-vaporwave" albums I've stumbled across. Imagine an alternative reality where Dick Rowe's assertion that "guitar groups are on their way out" came to pass, and that as a consequence metal music never developed and evolved into the multiheaded monster it is today. The same moody musical outcasts who promulgated black metal may have instead turned to the medium of computer generated music. Their output may have, in all seriousness, sounded something like this.

(sorry about the image size, I was fully under the impression that I had resized it. It normally works on my own bulletins.)

I love the album "You are already dead" by Phoenix #2772. It follows the theme of 80's slasher movies from it's cover art to song titles. A treat for the ears if you love the sound of relaxed saxophone serenades from start to finish.

If I had to pick one that wasn't a series like Virtual Dream Plaza, I'd probably pick telepath's Beyond Reality (現実 お 超えて) as my favourite vaporwave album of all time. It's so engrossing and really sensual, I've slept to it countless times. The beats on the tracks are phenomenal too, with my favourite probably being the second track, titled "your world" (あなたの世界). I feel like I've memorised all the lyrics to it LOL
