>More than just a mannerist collage of the nostalgic aesthetic belonged to the millennial generation, Fashwave also operates to force classicism free of the post-modernist stranglehold that academic progressives have maintained over it, for a nearly a century. We would be mistaken to claim that the antiquated speculative nature of Fashwave betrays the aesthetic as a thing only predicated on nostalgia. While it might be considered a collage of sorts, stitched together from pieces of 80s and 90s pop-culture; VHS tapes, video game soundtracks, neo-noir landscapes, neon, lasers, synthesizers, streaking brake lights and 8-bit arpeggios—Fashwave only operates modally to subvert the mainstream progressive agenda by way of nostalgic cues to the otherwise uninterested.
>The real strength and fascination of the aesthetic lies in its ability to draw a parallel between anachronistic futurisms; that is to say, what ideals were once held for tomorrow and have since fallen either out of favor, out of fashion, or out of plausibility—and icons of western art now so unpopular in the mainstream circles of acceptable media. Hovercrafts, jetpacks, Bond gadgets, terminator technology, apocalyptic analogues—dreams made into memories.
>By carefully conflating these two ideas we might touch on the birth of a new mannerism: anachronism becomes the mode by which the canon of western thought and artistic enterprise suddenly and altogether vaults over the rhetorical barriers set in place by post-modernism and manned tirelessly by the drones of academia, to re-establishes itself as a countercultural force.
>So it was that Piranesi’s Veduta di Roma series painted an image of Rome so fantastical that Goethe himself—a fan of Piranesi’s work—exclaimed his consuming disappointment upon first visiting the city, for it was less impressive than Piranesi’s drawings had led him to dream.
While I do believe that Lazerhawk is a cuck [Austin], I like his beats. Miami Nights 1984's first album under "ActRaiser" is pretty tight. Also possibly cucked [Toronto]. With appropriate associations there is potential.

Does anyone have a fashwave version of pic related? Or the name of the statue? I know it's by Arno Breker but I can't seem to find out what its name is.
Jack Lee
Fashwave would be cooler if it were original and not completely piggy backing on vaporwave.
I guess that's asking a lot since fascism is completely unoriginal
Isaiah Harris
bump lol yeah bro def unoriginal you definitely have an opinion that derives merit lol
Noah Rodriguez
Fashwave is not just music, did you even read the OP post? The music that embodies fashwave carries a politicial structured message, while underlying varies societal and psychological issues. You need to lurk more newfriend.
I believe it is the Die Partei sculpture on a different angle.

Sadly not, friend. Die Partei has different hair and carries a torch, thus the arms are different as well. Thank you anyway!
