Is this proto-vaporwave?

>>71627509
no. Eccojams by Chuck Persons is. Farside Virtual by James Ferraro is. There's not really anything "vaporwave" about this. It has an 80s aesthetic, sure, but that doesn't mean it's related to vaporwave.

>Eccojams
>Farside Virtual
those are vaporwave not proto-vaporwave

>>71627783
They're the predecessors to vaporwave and thus before vaporwave and therefor proto-vaporwave. The genre built off of both of those releases. Farside Virtual isn't really even considered vaporwave by most vaporwave fans actually.

What about Music Has the Right To Children makes it at all "proto" vaporwave as you want to call it?

No because their music requires actual talent to make

>>71627891

>Dude Vaporware invented non-musical samples and so anything that samples from a non-music source is Vaporwave related
I guess SILY is also "proto-vaporwave" then.

>>71628765
Who are you quoting retard
>implying songs like Roygbiv and Open the Light don't sound vaporwave as fuck

not OP but i get what he means
if vaporwave was [a ghost of a memory of music from 20 years prior] then BOC are similar in that what they did in the 90s was also [a ghost of a memory of music from 20 years prior]

>>71627509
No but this is.

This album almost instantly calms me down by washing me over with a sweet wave of nostalgia-tinged vibes every time, I love it.

Sampling shit isn't fucking vaporwave.
BoC, and a shit ton of hiphop samplings are not proto-vaporwave.
You can very easily relabel Metal Fingers as vaporwave and those autismos would never realize the difference.

>>71627509
this is proto vapor

>>71627783
vaporwave didn't exist when those albums came out

fuck off

>>71627509

no

boards of canada has nothing to do with vaporwave, MHTRTC is closer to ambient, which to some degree vaporwave has been getting closer to lately

proto-vaporwave is 80's japanese funk

>>71627783
What makes fsv vaporwave to you? That album is a clear jumping off point for the vaporwave manifesto but the music really has nothing to do with vaporwave at all

>>71627663
Totally agreed, Eccojams was the beginig.

vaporwave faggots need to be culled from this earth
