>>47940529
yeah true. i think of it when I make some of my stuff
>>
i always assumed vaporwave was music thats also a critique of global capitalism, usually made by 90's kids raised on mass marketing and the internet. is the recycling of old songs really an essential part of it?
>>
>>47940944
you'll have to find out what the particular artist is saying. to me the music/visuals invokes more feeling then a conceptualization. meaningless media...i'd look into Debord and Baudrillard as mentioned earlier
>>
>>47940944
the recycling of old songs is one element of it, insofar as the effort to invoke nostalgia through fleeting moments.

for example, take a listen to PSR41 off of Laserdisc Visions' 'Initiation Tape - Part One'
the distorted sample here almost invokes the nostalgia more than if she had just sampled the chorus of Africa, and in this way, it almost "objectifies" the nostalgic sentiment

similarly, if we take a look at Solar Panel Smile from James Ferraro's 'Far Side Virtual,' the sound at 0:08 is immediately and poignantly noticeable as the menu screen for the Nintendo Wii.
here, even something so recent as to barely be considered "nostalgia" is still made out to be a fleeting memory via the use and sampling

as >>47941104 points out, though, the interpretation of any art can vary from artist to artist and listener to listener.
as much as an outward, superficial listen might lead one to pass by certain vapor artists as simple rehashes of past work, an analytical listen can unfold layers of emotion
>>
>>47940944
>critique of global capitalism
lol if anything is pays homage to it and it pays homage to the era of mega malls and shopping plazas
>>
>>47941104

it's like the genre is slowly being watered down but i suppose its inevitable
>>
>>47941546
me too, but vaporware dieing is bound to be poetically pleasing!
>>
>>47941546
vaporwave itself is a critical simulacra of not only nostalgia-invoking music, but of the concept of music/muzak as a whole
from it's inception, it was bound to be watered down and reproduced, because that's what it stood for to begin with
>>
>>47941677
God... Fuck you. Just shut up and listen to the nice vibes
>>
>>47941677
>from it's inception, it was bound to be watered down and reproduced, because that's what it stood for to begin with
if that was the plan all along, why did most of the original vaporware artists disassociate themselves from the genre?
>>
>>47941775
because they said what they wanted to say
art evolves and transforms, and artists discover things about themselves as they create art
while i wouldn't presume to speak for any artist, my guess is that they felt like they had expressed what they wanted to as best as they could through that medium, inspired a unique way to look at not only art, but culture, through a critical lens, and then decided to move on to other ventures

>>47941757
>God... Fuck you. Just shut up and listen to the nice vibes
this comment actually exemplifies the motivation behind the mallsoft subgenre
in the modern era (modern as in the present, not Modern), people don't have the time, patience, or dedication to critically analyze music or any other artform.
the fact that vaporwave works have been produced that you feel you can just throw on in the background because the "chill vibes" don't require your focus just shows that you are the subject of criticism here

thats an extremely optimistic way of looking at it!

i still think it had something to do with broporwave/just the general uninspired direction newer less talented artists were taking it.
these fucking hacks will never learn, tagging yourself onto something after it gets big never works and it looks tacky as fuck.

>>47941757
Yeah can I go with "Reductionism: Why I Don't Feel Like Using My Brain" for 300, Alex
>>
>>47942166
i think that the goal of vaporwave artists was never to be "vaporwave" artists or to create their own genre
i think they were making efforts to advance criticism of society into a meta-realm that could capture the spirit of the modern, technological era, and the pros and cons that it brings
when people began to discover their works, they clung onto them and attempted to categorize them without considering the fact that it was a progressing artform with a fluid definition
that's why vektroid has albums that progress through vaporwave, mallsoft, vapornoise, and other various subgenres or 'post-vaporwave' genres, as they've been misnomered

>>47942275
broporwave is the result of people who listen to, and attempt to replicate, vaporwave's superficial aesthetic without an understanding of the movements behind it
this leads to efforts to 'improve' the genre by incorporating more popular, mainstream tendencies (regular beats and rhythm, more overarching melodic veins, heavier direct sampling of music, etc)

I hate all the 3deep5me implications of vaporwave people like to imprint onto the genre/aesthetic; that it's some critique of hyperconsumerism and dystopias of complacency.

Is it so bad that I just want to groove to some fun, campy "pop" music that's somehow completely foreign at the the same time totally nostalgic.

I just made my first vaporwave EP, "SEE/SEAS", and would love some feedback. Don't expect anything too experimental or groundbreaking, as this is my first dab into the genre, and I didn't want to step out of my comfort zone on my first attempt. I usually enjoy listening to the really eclectic, unpredictable shit, but this is very laid back, slow burning, and chill. Tell me what you think.

>>
>>47943121
Well, if BB has trap influences, what are some essential trap albums?
>>
>>47943140
This. Gaperwave should be more an aesthetic rather than a genre, because nobody really follows the really loose conventions of the genre.
>>
>>47943140

If vaporwave was ever a critique of capitalism, it has turned in the opposite direction now and embraced it. At least the better artists

I also think there are many more themes explored than just "capitalism" too.
>>
>>47943140
Same, I don't pay attention to any of that shit. For whatever reason, Floral Shoppe blew my mind the first time I listened to it and I've been looking for a similar feeling ever since.

>>47943140
I know it sounds harsh, but the reason these "implications" are 2deep4you is because you're not educated. For the vast majority of people who attach these implications, its a natural process. There's no trying, and certainly not enough effort expended to limit genuine enjoyment of the music itself. They're simply a natural extension of listening to the music.

Likewise, if you read interviews by essentially anyone who matters in vaporwave, they all discuss similar philosophical and political themes as being central to both the creation and enjoyment of the music itself. If you want to "groove to some fun, campy [nostalgic] pop music" then go listen to actual pop music from the 90s and early 2000s so you don't have to try to think about anything while listening to it.

A bit dissapointed that Ramona used MIDI's from the Geocity MIDI archive and barely tweaked them.

that might sound douchier than i intended. oh well

Eh. Liked Home a bit more, so I got the cassette. Some of the 3 or 4 minute songs just go on for way too long, though. I think it'd benefit if they were all mostly shorter

Hey guys I just released an album on my friends new web label, what do you think? It's exactly what it sounds like, my buddy recently got broken up with, and so it inspired me to make an album capturing those sorts of feelings. Any feedback is much appreciated :)

>>
>>47945044
i don't know you at all, so correct me if i'm wrong, but i think one issue people run into is that they're trying to make vaporwave music. as long as you attach a label to something and then try to replicate it, it's going to seem generic.
maybe if, instead of trying to make a vaporwave track, you tried to comment on something or express an idea, and just used that as an inspiration/medium, it would seem more genuine?

well thanks for the feedback. I'd suggest listening to what broporwave actually is before calling things that, whatever the quality... try saintpepsi or nmesh.

>>47945685
eccojams was $105 including shipping
got it a few months ago, when copies were going for $240 now they're at $350

in the mail is disconscious & computer dreams/napolian(also on botr but an overlooked release)
>>
>>47945697
>>47943143
dude you already posted this
>>
>>47945725

Yeah, no shit. Do you see any responses to it?
>>
>>47945714
I've got Disconscious in the mail as well as General Translator
I've seen quite a few copies of the Computer Dreams split on Discogs but never gone for it
Looking for a copy of Diskette Romances or YYU to pop up
>>
>>47945613
Anyone? Please give it to me /mu/.
>>
>>47945745
Maybe thats because its terrible

I listened to it but didnt respond
>>
>>47945752
>Diskette Romances
haha, funny story actually...i commented on the facebook page of their label and asked if anyone had an extra copy they didn't want..the label responded and said they'd make an extra copy just for me. pretty cool
yyu isnt strictly vaporwave is it?
also im looking for that cybereality tape and that eyeliner cdr (the first one) since i didnt get a copy when it came out
>>
>>47945745
Just because people didn't find it appealing doesn't mean you should spam threads with it, it looks desperate and is annoying

>>47945769

You post your shit. Let's see how great it is.
>>
>>47945782
High Fashion Mood Music or LARP of Luxury?
As far as I know they're still selling the former off the Bandcamp page (at least that's where I got it)
I might try that Diskette Romances trick because I really love that EP and would kill to have it on tape
>>
>>47945783

HFMM. larp of luxury is still up i think
hfmm just recently went out of sale last i checked, unless theyre making more
i assume even if its sold out it wouldnt be that hard to nab a copy

you have to be good at attaining and searching, i've found tons of hard-to-find things that aren't vaporwave by just being very diligent in searching
in fact, i hadn't even started collecting vaporwave stuff until around 2013 even though i've been into it since it started
i've kicked myself multiple times for not buying mac plus when it came out but whatever

you just gotta know where to look

how would I find releases that arent for sale on discogs?

it's kinda chillwave-y, but it definitely shares aesthetics with vapor
It's live instrumentation as far as I know though, so that keeps it from being true vapor
Still has an 80s porno soundtrack vibe to a lot of it

No, he just seems surprised that more than one person has expressed disinterest in his music(?).

different tactics i've used are messaging people who claim to own it, commenting on the release, getting in touch with labels etc

stereotypical track image aside, how's the actual music?

i appreciate the relaxed sound, which is what i look for in mallsoft, but i could go for a little more upbeatness/less tight looping
also, the sound quality is a little gritty compared to releases like hologram plaza

good / bad
>>
>>47946167

Amen.
>>
>>47946202
I'd say you could get away with it had Vektroid not already done a MIDI cover of Easy Lover as the opener to Home™
It's also a little bit simple, which is by no means a bad thing, but that's just my opinion
>https://soundcloud.com/sharedthoughts/instinct-1
another eccojammy thing I threw together a while back I wouldn't mind feedback on
>>
>>47946208
Nigga you aint even following what you just said "amen" to wth
>>
>>47946196
this seems really overwrought
i'm not sure what you're trying to get across here... fake leaves, fake gold grapes, fake marble, fake gold paint - would suggest the bust is weeping at the artificiality of nature
juxtaposition might also suggest, instead, that it's nature being augmented by modern aesthetic

that said, >tumblr

>>47946259
How's this work
>>
>>47946254

Maybe you need to re-read it than, and put the 'amen' into its proper context. It may require some thinking. Is this a new concept?
>>
>>47946244
maybe youre right
listening to yours
>>
>>47946292
my initial thought was that this was someone kissing a mirror, although that's obviously not true
taking the title, 'etheromance,' into account, i'd guess that this is a moment of duality wherein a person's desires become clear to them through an ether haze, and they become enamored with those desires, only to realize they were within themselves all along
>>
>>47946244
