Why is there a horrific looking ghost face to the left of her head?
Liam Bailey
He wants aesthetic movies

Eli Cook
I don't remember that shot from Lost in Translation
Robert Jenkins
It's a promo pic but it captures the feel of the movie perfectly.
Mason Brooks
Drive had a kino soundtrack.
Well, more accurately, it had too great songs
Lincoln Stewart

le Refn flicks

Oliver Gutierrez
Drive and nightcrawler aren't vaporwave aesthetic. If anything theyre closer to retrowave
Brandon Miller
you're thinking of synthwave
Luis Campbell
what is the difference between vaporwave, retrowave and synthwave, anyway?

How would one capture the vaporwave feel on film? Is it even possible?
Jayden Davis
That movie clearly shoegaze you fucking dumbass

Vaporwave is characterized by use of samples that are distorted in pitch and/or speed and is often coupled with imagery of retro computer graphics and snippets of random advertising/imagery from early 90s pop culture. Also it's usually lo-fi. Lost in Translation isn't remotely vaporwave and neither is drive.

Who came up with this retarded genre?

Brayden King

Neon Demon
Third was not me but looks like Knight of Cups?
Asher Hernandez
What an utterly confused idea for a thread
Thomas Perry
It just kind of surfaced and gained traction in corners of the internet around 2012. You can't really attribute it to one artist or person.

OK a e s t h e t i c films, whatever, it's an image board where people share images
thanks for you are input
Jack Wood
>synthwave
neon grids, deloreans, blood dragon and synth, some overlapping with rave culture because of that
>retrowave
revival of the past, barely anything new from when it was effectively the current mainstream beside context and filters
>vaporwave
both of the above, layering the audio and collaging the pictures, influences of ambient, inclusion of noise (lots of it), more filters, hypnagogic drift
Thomas Campbell

Lincoln Morris
Yeah, those songs were too great weren't they?
Caleb Green
Daniel Lopatin, James Ferrarro and Macintosh Plus were the big names in 2011 and 2012 when only basement dwellers listened to vaporwave. Then the normies got a hold of and the genre died with them ... just look at the comments for this video:

Carson Turner
Fallen Angels always had that vibe for me
Jonathan Gray
American Psycho fits vaporwave more than what you're posting and looking for.
Jose Gonzalez

Hunter Jackson
Drive isn't even retro wave
It isn't any wave
Noah Hall
Blue Velvet

Real Genius
Gabriel Clark
Reminder to check out the Johnny Jewel project that started as the Drive score, it's excellent.
Zachary Jenkins
Shit I actually remember when this sort of music was around, can't think what motivated a musician to make this kind of thing, feels like early 80s
David Phillips
>Blue Velvet
Grayson Mitchell
vaporwave isn't even a true 80s thing. I want to strangle the kids who use that term.
Mason Torres
just check any christopher doyle movie
Blake Carter
Just like honey..
Julian Brown

Ian Rivera
What did he mean by this?
Ian Rodriguez
...
Ian Moore
He's right. One of the core characteristics of vaporwave is that it's extremely anachronistic
Grayson Fisher
Lucas Rodriguez
>isnt even a true 80s thing
What even is this argument? Ok. Just like every single other subgenera that grew out of the preceding couple decades? Clearly 80s synths and aesthetics, elevator muzak and commercialism inform the genre. But no, obviously it didnt exist then as it does now.

Dawn of the Dead has some thematic relevance, survivors are trapped in a mall and all the zombies / consumers are out to eat them
Kevin Gonzalez
pretty good video on the topic
Caleb Long

Seems like they're the ones who influence Sup Forums culture the most
Christopher Morgan

dougie jones?
Henry Baker
you know how rap was invented? dudes using older music from previous generations to make beats (now it's called sampling)
this is what this is. white boys making "new" music, aka slowing down 80s music. it's all part of the remix culture
and why it's popular, because people love the 80s. the older generations did the same thing, only with the 50s (see - literally every director from that era, spielberg, lucas, coppola etc)
Aiden James
Vaporwave is far more early 90s in terms of aesthetic
Carter Brooks
there's no such a thing as retrowave
synthwave (also known as outrun) is just synth based music, not slowed down. perturbator, carpenter brut, etc
vaporwave is just slowed down music from the 80s
there is also future funk, which is just like vaporwave only it's not slowed down, it's just 80s music "improved" in fl studio. more modern beats etc
Luke Price
Johnny Jewel is beyond based
His songs were extremely well utilized in the new Twin Peaks
Joseph Smith
Can anyone recommend some movies with an oceangrunge aesthetic?
Elijah Scott
this film is so underrated, one of Mann's best and it even rivals Silence of the Lambs
the filmmaking of Manhunter is better but the story and performances of SotL are better
Ayden Clark
Leviathan (2012)
Evan Hernandez
Yeah what the fuck
all shoegaze
