Is the genre doomed to be flooded with shitty house/hiphop meme producers who have zero appreciation for city pop, synthfunk, italo disco, new wave, synthpop and 80s music in general?
Can we repare the damage Frankjavcee has done by introducing underage faggots to it?
Grayson Thomas
First question yes probably.
Second question yeah too
Jose Brooks
No, vaporwave will become mainstream once it's been dilluted by talentless producers who only like the aesthetic
Carson Adams
I don't know
Jaxson Jones
Then what can be done to carve out a niche of authenticity into the shithole it's turned into?
Alexander Anderson
But they DON'T like the aesthetic, if they did they woudn't flood it with ironic memes, millenial cultural references and hip-hop imagery
Isaiah Smith
I don't know
Isaiah Foster
well that was really helpful wasn't it?
Michael Ward
No, they definitely like it, it's just also in vogue to be a shitpoatung retard.
Ian Morales
I stronkly doubt that they like it. At most they like palm trees and purple/pink gradients because it reminds them of purple drank and instagram filters for internet skanks, but that's IT.
Brayden Gonzalez
Yes
Julian Morris
You underestimate the normies. A good chunk of people under 30 grew up with anime, especially older anime that also influenced vaporwave producers.
Nicholas Myers
We'll, what if they are trying to use the vapormeme aesthetics?
Noah Brooks
I know, I'm one of them, I'm just talking specifically about the hip-hop and house producers who have infiltrated the scene and those don't watch anything older than fucking Evangelion.
Matthew Parker
trying=/=succeeding to.
And they're doing out of a sick sense of humor combined with the desire to reach a new target audience. see: Frankjavcee
Easton Torres
Alright sounds legitimate
Joshua Sanders
What's this tanuki doing here?
Connor Smith
Me no know
Logan Hughes
Hey thread, OP here, can we get suggestions for your favorite vaporwave album?
Carter Gutierrez
Not my fav, but I rather like Internet Club - Redefining the Workplace, it's got funny track names and the tracks are long, so good for ambience
Adrian Parker
This is now a future funk thread. All posts now must feature future funk.
Oliver Smith
Ok
Zachary Walker
>try to make futurefunk out of the Dirty Pair opening >fuck it up and end up with an industrial rock riff instead
Joshua Hill
Did you publish it? If so, please give this thread the link
Jeremiah Wright
Anyone have any recommendations for albums with a more melancholic vibe like チェスマスター's NIGHT DRIVE other than his other albums?
Nathaniel Lee
Laserdisc Visions - New Dream Ltd
Jaxson Walker
Also Infinity Frequencis - Computer Afterlife
Hudson Flores
Finally GOLDEN LIVING ROOM - NEW NOSTALGIA
Joshua Thompson
Have that one already, but to me it doesn't really sound that sad/melancholic(?), thanks though regardless
Will check these, thank you
I personally thought that Telenights by g h o s t i n g and Chip Jewelry's Nyetscape came closest to catching a similar atmosphere
Tyler Rivera
Ok. I was just listing Hypnagogic Dift albums off the top of my head :)
Jace Clark
*Drift not Dift sorry
Adrian Gutierrez
