Is vaporwave a "scene"/subculture yet?
>>48944963
Expected viralling bullshit, but this is actually great. Is this yours?
>>48945438
Pretty much, but it's based entirely online
>>48945446
it is, thanks
>>48945135
If the guy who made this is in this thread, you should rename the image to "Ultra Guide - Start here.jpg" or something so people understand the context of the folder
>>48944963
this reminds me of virtualdisksystems.bandcamp.com/album/-
>>48945438
Is normcore irl vaporwave?
>>48945465
Should we have a vaporwave party on Second Life?

Why am I so obsessed with this shit? I don't even like it.
>>48945910
it's addictive to collect
>>48945910
it feels like a cassette you found in a ravine
that's why i'm obsessed with it even though i really don't like it
>>48945910
>>48945971
it's okay to like it guys, don't like vaporphobic assholes stop you from enjoying the most relevant music genre of this decade
>>48945923
But I'm not collecting...
>>48946089
I read something about that while browsing through dsm-v. vaporphobia is no laughing matter. like a clown or something funny. you know
>>48946089
I hardly listen to the music. I'm mostly here for the discussion of vaporwave philosophy and aethetics.
>>48946156
you will though, it's only a matter of time until you stop denying to yourself who you are on the inside
>>48946271
i listened to floral shoppe once. now i'm here forever
>>48946271
But isn't the point of vaporwave to resist populist consumption? Or does capitalism always co-opt the tools of its enemies?
>>48946424
vaporwave embraces capitalism more than any other genre
>>48945135
Person that made this, reminder that I'm still missing YUNG BAE and NxxxxxS from that chart. If anyone has it, pls post here so we complete the chart.
>>48945584
Will do.
>>48946453
Should we accelerate the process so that Western civilization implodes upon itself?
sup guys i'm lookin for some vapor cassettes to buy.
recs?
>>48946522
now you're thinking like an accelerationist
>>48946561
GOTTA GO FAST!
>>48946489
Oh yea, I'm thinking of buying a domain like vaporwav.es; what should I call it?
>>48946662
vaporwave-is-dead.org
that's the new thing, right, saying vaporwave is dead while continuing to make new vaporwave?

i recently started collecting. i dont care so much about getting macintosh or chucky cassettes, as much as just having my favorite artists cassettes if they make em. You can get maccy on ebay tho since they seem to always have one selling. (400ish though)
A lot of the time they make very limited runs so you have to get there pretty quick. I finally got a telepath cassette (they sell out within 2 days usually) recently. This is the one I got:
>http://telepathtelepath.bandcamp.com/album/--13
I want to get these in the near future
>http://crystalsurge.bandcamp.com/
>http://noproblematapes.bandcamp.com/album/echo
>http://plasticresponserecords.bandcamp.com/album/late-night-stereo
just look for bandcamps. that's the only place I know of that you can get vapo cassettes.
>>48945910
let the vapor take control
Please recommend some melancholic vaporwave
>>48949298
melancholy is the antithesis of vaporwave

I haven't listened to much vaporwave since 2012, used to jam Floral Shoppe and the VIRTUAL album by vektroid as well.
Any recommendations for similar stuff? I like the experimental textures and ambient stuff, but I also like actual music. I remember thinking back then that some of the stuff was way to non-rhythmic, a lot of the stuff that was television remixes especially.
Someone needs to make aleatoric vaporwave.
>>48949876
try ESPRIT ??

I think of the postmodern attitude as that of a man who loves a very cultivated woman and knows that he cannot say to her "I love you madly", because he knows that she knows (and that she knows he knows) that these words have already been written by Barbara Cartland. Still there is a solution. He can say "As Barbara Cartland would put it, I love you madly". At this point, having avoided false innocence, having said clearly it is no longer possible to talk innocently, he will nevertheless say what he wanted to say to the woman: that he loves her in an age of lost innocence.
>>48951479
this post gave me feelings
>>48951529
We must liberate ourselves from the inertia resulting from a century of modernist ideological naivety and the cynical insincerity of its antonymous bastard child.
>>48952024
what's supposed to come after postmodernism? are we stuck here forever
>>48945910
that's called hype my boy
someone told me sea of dogs is producing a new album, is there proof of this?
>>48952098
Go to wikipedia and check out post-postmodernism, remodernism, transmodernism, digimodernism, altermodernism, metamodernism, and neomodernism.
This will provide you with a brief idea of the future.
>>48952971
holy shit this is a wide subject
>>48952963
I hope so! Oceangrunge needs more music.
>>48953040
That's only scratching the surface!

Who do you think you are, timid orpheus?
that dummy mag article mentioned some vaporwave artists were pissed an earlier article was under the impression that vaporwave wasn't 100% sincere
i still can't tell, is it serious or is it a joke, like witch house
>>48952963
PLEASE let it be true

>>48953556
>>48953661
i was approached by Dream Catalogue and i am releasing the album there now instead, will be out in 10 days
>>48953717
So no way to listen to it until then I'm guessing
dang
Congrats all the same though
>>48953717
congrats
>>48953717
Cool!
What would happening if vaporwave went mainstream?
>>48953808
we'd find something else to jackoff to
>>48953839
Such as?
>>48953858
oceangrunge
>>48953858
slowed down 70s music
>>48954579
We already do that.
>>48954373
Get to it!

>>48955274
Just wait until paper grunge is a thing!
>>48955340
cardboardwave is a subgenre of paperwave fag
>>48955402
That's such a boxist thing to say.
>>48955402
>>48955340

This thread is amazing. Vaporwave is incredibly prolific in music. Much more than I thought.
>>48956442
I was talking about myself, when I found out I liked vaporwave

The new release from Business Casual is worth checking out BTW.
http://businesscasual87.bandcamp.com/album/--6
>>48957156
sounds pretty bad even by broporwave standards, it's just generic funk samples with barely any editing
>>48956833
>tfw no Eccojams Vol 2
>>48957576
Daniel said he has more Eccojams "in the cryotank set to defrost in the distant future"
