Vaporwave isn't really a genre you LISTEN to, it's a genre you just sort of hear, you put it on as background music while you're masturbating to 80s anime girls and that's it. Otherwise you're gonna ruin the experience.

here's an idea btw:
Let's recommend each other not only vaporwave albums, but ALSO retro anime girls to masturbate to while the muzak is playing.

An obvious example would be Madoka Ayukawa for Aloe Island Posse.

Explain why it doesn't deserve that exact rating in 17 seconds

that rating is quite accurate imo

It's a good soundtrack though.

As a start, I will post my commentaries I intended to post on another thread that 404'd before I was done:


1. "Everything in Its Right Place"
>Beautiful and haunting, sets the tone for the rest of the album. Very wintery feeling. Superficially calm-sounding, but you can sense anxious longing on the inside. I have this mental image of being in a buzzing, busy airport or a train station by myself, seeing a lot of people around me but despite that feeling lonely and longing for inner sense of peace.

2. "Kid A"
>I have always considered this track to be a transition from Everything in Its Right Place to The National Anthem. Mental image of standing in a log cabin in the woods, where it's warm and cozy, staring out from the window and observing the heavy snowflakes slowly falling.

3. "The National Anthem"
>Anxious feelings from Everything in it's Right Place hit the peak in this track and you can sense desperation and cacophony that is screaming "I don't want to be here!". A mental image of protesters being taken down by the security forces and the police next to a G8 meeting.

4. "How to Disappear Completely"
>This is the most painful track for me to listen to. It is so emotionally loaded that I only tend to listen to it separately when drunk. There is something extremely haunting about Thom repeating a self-helping piece of mantra to himself, desperately trying to distance himself from circumstances he is in. I have a mental image of being able to become invisible and observing people from a distance like a ghost.

5. "Treefingers"
>I have a personal theory that Treefingers has an actual healing effect on the brain's nerve cells or to connections in between. Listening to it feels like my mental exhaustion is drifting away and I feel myself to be in a better place. I have a mental image of walking around in Chernobyl on a slightly rainy morning, all by myself, observing all the stuff and memories people have left there.

6. "Optimistic"
>This track kind of breaks the continious flow of the album, but I don't know if it's intentional or not. I just personally feel this track kind of separates or breaks apart the flow, and attempts to set a new undertone to the rest of album. Optimistic sounds more like something OKC-esque than Kid A-esque. There is something strange about this track, as if it's a temporary attempt to touch a different theme within the boundaries of the artistic concept of this album.

7. "In Limbo"
>This track features a sound that is similar to the falling tone. Kind of disorienting, makes me picture some weird physical sensations, such as being able to lie flat on your stomach on the pavement, floating above it and slowly drifting onwards.

8. "Idioteque" (Radiohead, Paul Lansky, Arthur Kreiger)
>This track is genuinely haunting in a sense it makes me imagine some skynet-esque robot takeover. I feel like this track is a passive-aggressive attack on the fact that most successful people are dead inside, the philosophical zombies. The energetic beat is very pleasing, has a nice rhythm that accomodates my anxious feelings and entertains them in a manner that they won't feel displeasing, as if this song understands my anxiety disorder.

9. "Morning Bell"
>This track pictures me a strong mental image of cemeteries for some reason. I feel like this song has a very strong connection with a message of dieing or suicide for some reason. At the same time, I feel a calm, knowing that we all are going to die some day and find peace in a place far away from this world.

10. "Motion Picture Soundtrack"
>This song reminds me of a true story in my art school where a former young female teacher in her 30's, after getting a renowned prize for her art gallery, actually committed suicide in the House of Artists in my hometown. This is actually one of my favourite songs, and I have feelings of butterflies in the stomach, feeling love and longing for something unearthly beautiful and haunting. This song illustrates me how it feels like when you have accomplished something you have been wanting for your whole life and then you feel so happy that you feel like your fear of death is completely vanished and you wouldn't care if an asteroid impacted right now and took away your life and everyone else's around you.

/mu/ represents the biggest faggots on this website.

When someone is "into" music, they are typically already a faggot. But when you get really snobby and contrarian about music, you transcend into a completely higher level of faggotry. People can be snobby about movies and literature and still be cool but being a cunt about music is the true mark of a permavirgin hipster shitstain.

What is aurally pleasing differs from person to person. I do listen to what I find aurally pleasing.
