also for those that were fans of the excellent vw comp 'music of the now age' (available for free here https://fortune500.bandcamp.com/album/the-music-of-the-now-age )
the follow up was appaz released november last year (another one i missed due to over-reliability on spotify these days)

Whole lotta this stuff is completely unlistenable but good for a chuckle, but ahnnu's world music album was p good

funny titles+music on this eulogy for vaporwave (rip?)

Sébastien, Thursday, 29 May 2014 12:25 (ten years ago) link

much prefer the synthier ppl like bee mask and 18 carat affair to the slowed-down weather channel music and 80s boogie dudes

clouds, Thursday, 29 May 2014 15:28 (ten years ago) link

18 carat affair might be my favorite of all this stuff, but it seems very much in the slowed-down weather channel music vein to me

Dan I., Thursday, 29 May 2014 15:33 (ten years ago) link

i'll be listening to this fine fine trash til the day i die

brimstead, Thursday, 29 May 2014 19:09 (ten years ago) link

i love weather channel music, no lie

Fuck, why can I never get anything to embed? Aren't we supposed to be able to just paste in the YouTube URL?

Dan I., Friday, 30 May 2014 02:19 (ten years ago) link

I like the v grand vegetable dawn on the sonic the hedgehog one

ogmor, Friday, 30 May 2014 07:44 (ten years ago) link

i think the intention of the all caps album was to make broperwave rest in peace, an effort of quality control/invitation to try new ideas.
genres never really die.

must have listen to that one certainly a couple of dozen of times

There's a new EccoPlex mix I think released today that I'm enjoying at the moment, featurning personal favs Nmesh and ULTRA ウルトラ - particularly a nice early YLO moment.

Disappointed that 'broperwave' doesn't refer to like slowed down mid 80s italo with pop metal guitars

brimstead, Thursday, 10 July 2014 23:22 (ten years ago) link

Like, a surreal distortion of masculinity... I guess a lot of outrun/synthwave stuff kinds of goes in that direction.

what's with the greek statue motif in vaporwave, is it supposed to be like a microsoft encarta thing?

brimstead, Friday, 14 November 2014 21:22 (ten years ago) link

a relic from an enlightened past

example (crüt), Friday, 14 November 2014 21:26 (ten years ago) link

Macintosh Plus - Floral Shoppe was hugely influential

Dan I., Saturday, 15 November 2014 17:38 (ten years ago) link

But where did macintosh plus/vektron get it from???

brimstead, Saturday, 15 November 2014 20:02 (ten years ago) link

It just seems out of place, too clip-art-y (yes i know clip art is a big thing with the "post-vaporwave" folks)

brimstead, Saturday, 15 November 2014 20:07 (ten years ago) link

anyone down with oceangrunge? *flicks salt water on pita+harissa spice*

Sébastien, Sunday, 16 November 2014 10:00 (ten years ago) link

greek statues = weird out-of-place attempts at elegance that come off awkward and trashy?
