its on a mall. What they will do?? Prohibit people to enter the mall?? Close the mall to do an private show??
The good thing is that this will force people to discover vaporwave.

How is this a good thing?
>>52897336
ayyy

Mall is recently defunct
Saint Pepsi will never accept going to that unless they pay him really well.
>OPN asks for 7000 a show
he deserves it
>>52897336

How the hell this is a bad thing?
Normal People need to open their mind about music, as more music they discover the better
>sea fadgs
dont tell me this is one of the oceangrunge bullshits?
This is going to flop so hard holy shit
>0 backers
>>52897511
>vaporwave becoming the new EDM is not a bad thing
>>52897211
I love vaporwave, but this isn't going to raise a dollar and I'm glad it won't.
This is the true testament of the stability and longevity surrounding internet culture.
>>52897211
You're implying that it's going to reach $20,000. It won't.
>>52897573
i plan on documenting the entire thing
>>52897712
Holy fuck please do
>>52897511
>>52897407
Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy vaporwave, but this is not going to be any good for it.
>Normal People need to open their mind about music, as more music they discover the better
This never has good results. You could have said the same thing about Dubstep when it was more underground. Now look at all the shitters that permeate its mainstream culture.
Vaporwave ALREADY has "broporwave" and "vapormeme" artists that need to be worked out, so expanding it to the masses would be the final nail in the coffin.
>>52897618
people must venture outside radio to stop saying bullshit (because if tv and radio are their only teachers, they will learn alot of bullshit, even worse bullshit that dont even follow some logic, like someone trying to learn physics from simpsons cartoon).
Learn about vaporwave (can be any sub-genre), is one of the first steps to make they MAYBE venture outside radio. Even if they dont venture outside radio, they will be sort of closer to that state, by discovering new ways music can be done, new themes.....
>>52897744
you're retarded.
>>52897739
i mean, that's going off of the assumption that this will occur.
but yeah, interviews and everything.
>>52897511
you do get that the event itself is sort of everything vaporwave is against?
>>52897441

how does /mu/ feel about the new pepsi?

i never liked him. he reminds me of french house and i hate french house.
>>52897930
i hope sam hyde is there, holy shit.
too many people would know who he was though.
>>52897946
He is just french house, except somehow lazier and less talented
>>52897902
Depends, my opinion tends to change on him album to album. I think he's definitely heading in a more dance-orientated direction
>>52897930
It did a hell of a lot more than any other label in 2014 and they're still going strong.
I'd say they almost singlehandedly kept vaporwave alive in 2k14
what do you guys think of the lineup of artists?
>>52897930
It's the only well established vaporwave label, unless you count BOTR which isn't even a vaporwave label.
>>52897966
he should have stuck to futurefunk and left the mic at the store
>>52897977
y'all need to get on that business casual
>>52897902
This is a lot less interesting than his older stuff. A lot more formulaic and basic.
Like a boring daft punk without the electronic bits that made them worth listening to.
>>52897946
So you hate fun

fuck outta here

anything other than a vaporwave label > literal cancer >>>> Business Casual >> Dream Catalogue
>>52897211
Have the artists who were name dropped actually been solicited about this? Because $20,000 seems like an incredibly low number if they are really being compensated and having lodging accommodations.
>>52897427
http://themallatsteamtown.com/stores/
seems pretty active to me
>>52898142
iirc like 99% of them are just going to stream it, because 20k wouldn't even cover the flight and lodging costs for them all. It'll basically be SPF 420, but streamed for the 3 people who live in Scranton.
>>52898101
no surprise dream catalogue shills are all over this thread. your label is fucking shit and you know it. quantity is not quality
>>52898142
>sea of dogs it's going to be there
That's it, the most serious that someone has taken oceangrunge.
>>52898142
To rent an entire mall it would probably be pretty pricey. Plus they're providing travel fair and accomodations to all the artists
>>52898210
So for $20,000 people will have the right to watch a stream of some random vaporwave artists being streamed in and onto a screen at a mall? I'm in.
>>52898323
There is no way they can bring all those people to Scranton and book the space for $20,000. That is why I think the person who has arranged this is either seriously underestimating the cost and/or hasn't solicited any of the artists.
>>52898278
m8, I just said dream catalogue is at least 8 times worse than cancer
>>52898456
why don't you like it? i think it's a good label
So as it turns out, this is complete bullshit. None of the artists have done anything besides saying they are "interested" and no real estimates of costs have been made:

>>52898491
the four backers are also clearly plants to make this look more important than it is
>>52898609
I was thinking the same thing.
>>52898609
Yup. It's probably just someone who lives in Scranton thinking they had a brilliant idea. Those people who put the money down know their is no risk for actually having to pay it. Ultimately, trying to make an internet-based music festival using a public space and no actual business plan is a recipe for failure.
Imagine how the festival and people will look like?
>>52898811
Is that a bottle of ranch
>>52898834
Yes, simple simon
Sure wish I could link this to my friend and say: Well, how gay is this?
But he'd reply with: I make chillwave in my spare time hoping to make it part of a music career.
Then I'd have less respect for him than I already do.

Do yourself a favor and watch the eric andre show.

>>52898911
My bad, I've seen a few episodes but not all of them, that one included obviously.
>>52897810
Ya but I'm depressed and wanna meet other weirdos that listen to elevator music
I almost want to put in $100 for dat vinyl vaporwave.
But this is just another typical autist-organized event and isn't going anywhere.
>>52899259
Why would you want to torture yourself like that?
>>52897810
I'm going for the irony and to revel in the absurdity. Or I would be, if this were ever going to happen.
>>52899284
All the 4chan superstars are gonna be there
The fact that nobody's pledged the $5-$40 pledges is almost suspicious. Then again, crowdfunding a music event is just stupid.
>>52899399
>$400 instantly donated in less than 20 minutes after its set up
>literally 0 other backers since
kek, this shit is so rigged

What in the fuck are you even talking about
NEW $40 PLEDGE.
BOOGIE CONFIRMED.
Wow this is going to be even worse than that tumblr con with the ball pit, what was it called again
>>52900720
>he actually fell for the bait
Anyone else back this? I decided to.
>>52902133
i dont agree with the idea of a live vaporwave show. it just isnt the kind of genre to me that you go and watch someone on stage perform. it should be centered on the aesthetic.
also dont really like the shadyness of the event, the location, the fact that all of the artists are maybes and the only alluring thing about the show is the stretch goal
>>52902218
If it turns sour, I'll just pull out of the KS. Simple as that. Or maybe just get a shirt.
>>52897463
honestly deserves more to go to this shit show
>>52902273
I'd bet they haven't even worked it out with him, because if he's putting his reputation on something as shady as this, I wouldn't at all be surprised if he didn't want to charge more.
>- 27,000: HIRING DANIEL LOPATIN, (Father of eccojams and main inspiration of vaporwave)
Status: Incomplete
lmao they're putting aside like 5k to hire him
FRIENDLY REMINDER THAT THE GUY WHO ORGANIZED THIS IS A FUCKING NUB AND 90% OF THE ARTISTS ON THE KICKSTARTER AREN'T CONFIRMED
what a fucking idiot
and anyone who pledges their fucking money for such an unorganized piece of shit, is a piece of shit
>those rewards
Never gonna get delivered, $100 is not enough for a vinyl, cassette, poster, t shirt, a ticket, the amazon payments fee and taxes, like that shit is gonna leave nothing to go to the event
>>52903068
When you drop the big dollars you get a polo

He's pretty good, he just gets a lot of hate from those few faggots who spammed him. He posted saying he had never spammed his music here and he was annoyed about other people doing so.
Idk, I like Weak Waves and his newest release, they're pretty solid vaporwave releases
>>52903223
he gets a bad rap because poseidon in chains makes everyone who makes that shit look stupid
>>52903068
I thought this exact same thing. Seems kinda fishy.
Who thinks this is a scam?
>>52897211
lol somebody is still stuck in 2012
>>52903265
Very much so. Jesus that guy is a gigantic douchebag.
I remember in a vaporwave thread he reviewed his own album seriously and publicly, and when everyone was telling him to fuck off, he kept saying "you all don't understand my humor" and "This is all ironic and sarcastic". What a turd.
>>52903311
he got wrecked by fred flinstone
>>52903271
dude read the thread on reddit, the organizer has no fucking clue what hes doing, 90% of the performers are unconfirmed, 90% of the fucking sponsors are unconfirmed
>>52903346
That's pathetic, no wonder they were stupid enough to have it in a mall.
Fuck it's actually happening. I'm still going to back this
>>52903694
what makes you think it's happening? most pledges are just from when the guy and his friends backed it themselves
>>52898811
>>52900457
>implications
Honestly when seeing shit like this ironic music festival i really start to wonder about my generation.
go ahead, make a meme about it.
>>52905386
there's no meme, you are just a stupid worthless "muh geberdation" piece of shit.
>>52904441
Bwahaha what a tool.
I never thought I'd be the guy to call someone else "a tool," but wow.
>>52905593
typical millennial.
>>52905312
He's right. Fuck back off to your containment thread where you and the other 2 desperate losers who make that garbage can circlejerk about it.
>>52905859
>garbage
So it's a huge scam, right?
>>52906588
yes. not as much of a scam as oceangrunge but its close
>>52906834
>>52906223
Fuck off Shanoxilt. You're the biggest embarrassment on this entire board.

He's either mentally ill or the greatest troll in /mu/ history
>>52907251
There is always the lure of the sea...
>>52907251
It's the first. Look at his posting history. This guy literally spends his entire life posting about a dead non-genre on Reddit. I'd feel sad that he's got so little going on in his life that he has to cling to something so insignificant, but the annoyance overrides it.
>>52897744
>listens to pleb shit his whole life
>discovers Mac + on tumblr
>"people really need to open their minds to more experimental music like this"
You reek of 15
>>52903311
Was that the thread where he basically lost his mind and said that oceangrunge was just a joke he created all along. that was crazy. others and myself were ripping him apart for his pretentious attitude about his ideas behind the genre. he lost his mind and went into ultra damage control saying he was trolling us all along. pathetic and beautiful. haven't seen him since.
