Hey guys, first time in /mu/ and I was wondering if someone can recommend some vaporwave like songs/artists but better and with "more content" no so much "plain" like vaporwave (I don't know how else to explain it).
[spoiler] I know that I'm gonna get a lot of hate for this, but I actually kinda like vaporwave (specially while high) so if you know some good songs, I'm listening..

NONE OF THIS IS REAL is not vaporwave.

Rozwell made one fatwave album and one oceangrunge album (the only good one in existence).

Op here. For context, the first vaporwave album that I listened was 2814's (pic related) and I loved they style, so I guess that I'm looking for something like that NOT THE REPETITIVE AND ANNOYING MEMENTOSH PLUS 420, which btw, degraded so much the genre

If you liked 2814, you need to check out everything by t e l e p a t h テレパシー能力者
He's one half of that collaboration and everything he touches has that same "hypnagogic" feel. The album he did with Nmesh is top tier, and his project Virtual Dream Plaza is entirely free on Mega.

Actually here's the link to that collection:
https://mega.nz/#F!zJN12JJZ!YZnpF4zay-l_5wDVEgFVzw

And here's his album アンタラ通信

Sorry, I'm new to the genre! I thought it was a "meme artist", what I really meant to say is that I don't like that kind of vaporwave (very 'upbeat' and with looping parts)

>>65196392

I was actually just looking something like this to educate myself about the genre, but I didn't thought it'll exist because everything is kinda "new". Thank you so much anon this is perfect!

And thanks everyone in this thread, now I can finally really enjoy vaporwave!
>>
>>65197954
You're a cheerful fellow, I like you
All is forgiven

I recommend Hologram Plaza by Disconscious, by the way. If you had the good fortune to spend your formative years in the 90s, you'll find it perfectly reminiscent of walking around a 90s shopping mall that's totally abandoned but where the stores are all open and the lights are still on

Very atmospheric, and genuinely one of my all-time favorite albums for that reason

I unironically like good vaporwave. Not this repetetive shit, where 3 seconds beat keeps playing 50 times in a row + lo fi + slowed down, but the stuff that gives nostalgia googles.

My favourites are:
Dave Roland - About Tonight

Ricky eat acid - Strawberries

That's not even vaporwave, it's just ambient music with meme aesthetics. So if you like ambient, just go look for some actually good ambient music, the genre exists since more than 20 years and there's lot of stuff you can explore by yourself just by using something like google

Yeah no, actually he uses voice samples speaking japanese, like all the meme musicians do.
>>
>>65194694
Ever listened to Blank Banshee?

>>65205583
He has a whole album about futuristic hong kong. I'd say that's more than inspired

Where's 2814 doe?
>inb4 "it's ambient"

OP, check out Man Bites Dog's latest album. It's more instrumental hip-hop than vapourwave, but utilizes field recordings and sampled tracks in a very unique way. Very dark.
>>
>>65205701
that horrible chart was made before 2814 came out. I really don't suggest using it as it's filled with a bunch of garbage and broporwave
>>
>>65205637
Except that the language in the samples is japanese. I'm quite certain he didn't even know and can't tell the difference. Most likely he doesn't know jackshit about Hong Kong, except what he saw after a Google image search.
>>
>>65205701
The chart is outdated, but really there isn't much recent addition to Vaporwave as a whole, except each genre branching farther apart from each other.
>>
>>65205827
Actually he doesn't. Not sure if it is cantonese, but it sure ain't japanese.
>>
>>65192951
Idk if someone has told this young man about Oneohtrix Point Never yet, but just go listen to Replica.
>>
>>65196370
there are maybe a dozen vaprowave/sea punk/ future funk/associated shit albums worth listening to, what autistlord made a chart this big?
>>
>>65206151
I remember he was an idiot, basically just put every single album he could find into an "essentials" chart. I thought it was stupid at the time but he sperged out on me and didn't take any criticisms.
>>
Look up LAY BAC. hes the one who incidentally started all this shit. At least he put vocals over his stuff.

6/10, although there are some stand out tracks here and there. God-tier cover though
