This album can be viewed from a lot of different stand points.

>this album somewhat contributed to the rebirth of 80's funk and synthpop in other words brought the community a little closer and brought in a younger generation

>the concept of blatantly using samples without said permission from the original publisher and not really paying any credit.

>The idea that the original performers that did the recordings to the songs that were used without permission may have even less rights to the song than the remixer or vaporwave artist

>The idea that marketing teams in their campaign approaches move from concept to concept so fast that they may have left several years of marketing material which include : aesthetics, phrases, and other artistic concepts behind and it is all being recycled at this time,

>is vaporwave dead? don't ever ask a listener ask a composer

Don't just do that though, do vaporwave as a broad spread so you can include more things. You can talk about how the aesthetics unite each one but their message differ etc.

>>is vaporwave dead? don't ever ask a listener ask a composer
but how would I ask them?

Contact them obviously, vaporwave artists eat shit like that up

Creating collages in all artistic mediums has become a more normalized process in the arts. Like the amalgamated world of blade runner. What if this albums art is one of many representations that hypothesize that the future of cites and life will be complete endless amalgamation. Things get recycled in all forms virtually or in reality.

The aesthetics... quite a few graphic designers graduated just after the 2008 market crash.. Quite a few teens had intentions of being regularly paid graphic designers not really having a real concept of the market crash. The end result a surplus of digital artists some well trained others amateurs compilling a ceaseless amount of art at a staggering rate.

None of them with real jobs at tech companies (google, twitter, etc) creating digital portfolios.
The lack of work in ones desired field was not a deterrent to the artists that had managed to graduate. They continued to create, then i would imagine thats where some of the artists decided to test other mediums, printing, music, painting etc.

popularly recognized as net art, which spawned the art style associated with vaporwave. The visual aesthetic often took examples of post modernism with a retro futuristic flair which complimented the music style in every way imaginable. The imagery often ironic to an extent or very abstract but with a nostalgic factor that appeals to the listening/consumer.
