Will there ever be a vaporwave revival?

I hope not
No, all the ironic memers have left the genres and the only people left are the ones who actually give a shit.

It isn't dead, it just went back underground.
Where it belongs.

the only people left are video game nerds that have completely misunderstood what made vaporwave (briefly) interesting in the first place
just look at "future funk", what an awful awful genre
People who were into vaporwave now only care about jazz samples with midi drums over a anime picture.
Vaporwave is forever gone, luckily we have lofi hip hop youtube streams instead, the true patrician genre.. be grateful
Oh shit vaporwave is dead? I just found out about it.

vaporwave fuck nigga here.
I think that there is potential for vaporwave albums to make a comeback but their is a problem with a full blown comeback.
Most of the new producers entering the genre are usually rehashing a more prominent persons style in the community.
The ones that arent are usually not appealing, not getting exposure since the community size shrunk significantly since 2014 or so when it peaked, or just play off of the traditional vaporwave sound which grows tiring after a while,
Vaporwave has become oversaturated with Future Funk and vapor fusions and dont stay that intact with the vapor style.
Most of the main names are either completely silent so new albums will lack sufficient hype:
>18 carat affair
>Midnight Television
>Internet Club
>Luxury Elite
Or main names have reached what many consider their creative peak.
>Macintosh Plus- Floral Shoppe
>Blank Banshee- Blank Banshee 0
>S U R F I N G- Deep Fantasy
>!8 Carat Affair- Live Of Vice
>Chuck Persons- Eccojams
>Saint Pepsi Luxury Elite- Late Night Delight
>deathsdynamicshroud.wmv- I'll Try Living Like This
>Yung Bae- Bae
>Esprit- Virtua.zip
>Vaperror- Mana Pool
>Syllabus- July
>James Ferraro- Far Side Virtual
>I can go on
Other than the fact that we cant expect them to do more than what they have already attributed to the genre there is also the fact that alot of these names also barely or dont add to the genre anymore.

If you try listening to albums outside of what I just posted there (the creative peaks and similar works) you will usually find the other works to be underwhelming with a few exceptions
So I dont think that a full on resurgance will be possible unless we get a bunch of new interesting faces emerge onto the scene or if we get alot of old names to return to the scene around the same time.
Other than that there is definitely the possibility of vaporwave albums going into the limelight since we have seen it before.
>Blank Banshee- Mega
>2814- 新しい日の誕生 (I consider this to be telepath and HKE's peaks as well.)
So ya thats basically the truth of vaporwave.
Since I answered this question.
THIS IS NOW A VAPORWAVE THREAD
