What do you think about the recent appropriation of retro sy

backwards looking retards latch on a backwards looking retarded aesthetic and music style

>Relatively easy for individuals to make thanks to DAWs
>Militaristic feel
>latches onto the current post-vaporwave zeitgeist
>very throw away music that producers don't mind giving up
idk what their intent is exactly but it's kind of cringe worthy, first it was every single ambient producer lifting vaporwave aesthetics, then it was youtubers and now its the far right

if this is some mastermind way to get people to stop throwing 80s filters everywhere though I'm all for it

le first as trageby then as a fake

>>73474681
The whole retrowave thing was getting overplayed when they started latching onto it anyways.

>>73474820
i-i never liked retrowave anyway

>>73474681
>Why have they latched onto this genre?
“It is generally supposed that Conservatives are usually old people, and that those in favour of change are the young. That is not quite correct. Usually, Conservatives are young people: those who want to live but who do not think about how to live, and have not time to think, and therefore take as a model for themselves a way of life that they have seen.”

that doesn't make really make sense if we consider that most of these people are in America

probably a more accurate understanding would be that they've looked at what they've grown up around (neo-liberalism, globalisation, multi-culturalism) and have rejected it because, to them, it doesn't appear to have ever worked at all

i'm not saying this is reflective of reality, but just that this is a more accurate understanding of the new-right logos

I think Richard Spencer said he considered Depeche Mode to be the soundtrack to the alt-right or something like that. Obviously they didn't appreciate that.

I wonder if he knows that Martin Gore is mixed race.

It's thoroughly retarded but not really worth getting excited about.

>>73474681
this is something I would have listened to in 5th grade for the sole reason of being edgy

>>73474856
I did like it for a bit, but the gimmick got played out quickly.

>>73475031
i don't see why richard spencer would care if something he enjoyed was produced by the labour of someone who isn't white

the left did it just as much. they're both opportunist retard sides

It's the musical equivalent of Bible Mangas: out-of-touch, awkward, embarrassing, sloppily put together and aesthetically jarring.


The fags who do it aren't even aware that early 80s synthpop already incorporated fascist aeesthetics, in a subtle and elegant manner.

you probably picked the worst example to prove your point

Or they're missing the irony and think Devo's Triumph Of The Will somehow puts them on their side.

And they're too young to have heard of Laibach...

>>73475096
Depeche Mode was going for socialist realism with that cover. Fascists stole a lot of their aesthetic from Bolsheviks to try and attract workers, despite being firmly anti-worker.

>>73475031
The alt-right, at this point, is just a bunch of /v/ermins who want to protect their videogames from feminists, and perceive the rest of reality as an extension of this situation.

The reason why they latched onto synthwave is because it's sometimes used as video game music, and all they know is video games.

if the alt-right had been born 5 years earlier they'd make fascist dubstep instead.

10 years earlier they'd make fascist chiptune.

It's a symptom of their cultural short-sightedness.

>>73475163
fascism is not really anti-worker, it just doesn't even make a distinction

it's really just neutral and accepts the inherent hierarchy of man

>>73475127
Fascist aesthetics =/= fascist ideology.

>>73475159
Laibach, Devo, SPK, Propaganda, Depeche Mode, Alphaville etc...

>>73475163
The lyrics are fairly socialist-leaning too, on that album in particular.

Are these people too dumb to embrace legit retarded fascist musicians like Boyd Rice?

>>73475198
>fascism is not really anti-worker
That's why the blackshirts got their start beating up striking workers, and every fascist regime banned independent trade unions and make striking illegal.

Probably because a lot of alt-right members are cringeworthy 4chan users and went through their high school years playing Hotline Miami so now they think 80's revival is the coolest, edgiest shit ever

>>73475188
Great, I can't wait for fascist lo-fi hip-hop

>>73475072
I think the problem is more that Gore is a prominent example of race mixing not actually being bad.

>>73475271
lo-fi hip-hop would have to be used as vidya music for the alt-right to pick it up

>>73475252
yeah, get in line for the betterment of your volk and ergo the betterment of yourself

fascists think that they're helping one another - it's only anti-worker if you think fascism isn't effective at helping the worker

>>73475283
you're looking at a single individual

would an anarchist have to admit that capitalism is good because philanthropists exist?

>>73475271
it wouldn't be difficult
just replace the minimal hi-hats with snare drums and BAM you've turned every cheap-ass trap beat into a military marching beat.

>>73475188
you don't have any understanding of what you're talking about

i bet you think that /r/the_donald and /r/kotakuinaction are alt right lol

>>73475362
As a matter of fact, they pretty much are

The problem is that you're actively undermining your own argument. It's like saying that African immigrants can't assimilate or contribute positively to European genetics or culture while listening to Stromae. Far right people like that will cherry pick bad examples of things and use that to paint everyone with the same brush. That's pretty much the basis for their entire argument. So why draw attention to a counterexample?

>>73475544
>That's pretty much the basis for their entire argument.
no it isn't

the basis of their argument is based on human welfare and peace

they don't believe it's impossible that some individual of one ethnicity cannot assimilate to the culture of another disparate ethnicity

Ethnic conflicts can be surpassed through the class struggle.

Yeah but it's weak as fuck and relies pretty much entirely on anecdotes and fabrications. Presenting a contradictory anecdote makes its incoherence more obvious.

I've actually been experimenting with it, it's... actually less fascist and more Soviet Union/Maoist China esque in a way, especially if you toy around with distortion. Still, you can get a damn good military-esque hip hop sound and I'd like to experiment more with it by lifting stuff from military marches so a lot more flute work for example.

>fascist chiptune
I didn't know I needed this

Holy shit this really exposes the 'fuck you mum and dad' types. Watching you guys trying to figure this out without a shred of intellectual charity is hilarious.

The reason they do it is pretty obvious - they ride the same fad dick as you kids, except instead of 'played-out', they call it 'degenerate'.

The reason they started the fash-wave thing is because revivalist synthwave is 'degenerate', temporary, and directionless. So, they juxtapose that with either military imagery in reference to their nationalism, or classical sculpture in reference to their heritage.

Its a hobbyistic psy-op to hurry along the inevitable rejection of the current fad, in an attempt to get the pendulum to swing toward more concrete, traditional visual aesthetic.

>they aren't that smart, go back to /pol/ if you love them so much

They talk about this pretty openly, desu.
