vaporwave and deriative products

absolute dynamite
and seemingly the only place to get a few of these :)

The volume of stuff to comb through is fantastic and daunting
Some nice chording on the sacred tapestry track 移住

Thanks for the download link. I now have more vaporware than I'll ever be able to digest. It's all pretty good though. I enjoyed the Nmesh track that samples "Take My Breath Away".

I prefer the original and ambient stuff over than the detuned 70s and "virtual" subgenres

I generally agree, but that one works in a weird way

listening to the album now

4 new compilation records from dream catalogue
all on https://dreamcatalogue.bandcamp.com/

Yeah, they're called Chaos....I've been working my way through them slowly. Seems to be more a bit more electronica on them on the whole than vwave

I guess GG Masin talk goes on an ambient thread but this track sounds pretty vapey to me.. except for the trumpet, which really takes me out of it.

https://radiichina.com/yin-chinese-vaporwave-sampler/ none of it really vaporwave but interesting i think

^ these all rule - don't care about the definitions of genres at all :)

also 4 new releases next friday on orange milk!

this in particular i dig
https://soundcloud.com/orangemilk/diamond-soul-catcha-whiff

couple of cute little eps released in the summer on +100
less than 10 mins long each, but both nice slices of chillness
https://plus100.bandcamp.com/album/sports-ep
finest sports themed vw release since 'us golf 95'?
https://plus100.bandcamp.com/album/illumina-ep
this one reminds me of 'paradise disc' the penultimate track off blank banshee 1

Those are nice, if somewhat undistinguished, but hey this is vw, so it’s to be expected !

ha yeah
i like these way more when they're 10 mins long and not a 40 minute album

this rules, very of the genre
https://soundcpu.bandcamp.com/album/sunset-melody

while this is great too - glitch pop meets video game music (holly herndon vs dk country as u were)
https://noumenalloom.bandcamp.com/album/toiret-status-nyoi-plunger

both have excellent record covers too, for differing reasons

https://ssurfing.bandcamp.com/track/moonlight

Nice one from ‘12

gorgeous

"lifeline" and "hit the spot" off that albums are classic jams

Enjoying darkpyramid lately

For those compiling your year-end lists, this playlist includes all the available tracks on this thread, organized roughly chronologically in order of mention:

ILM's 2017 Rolling Vaporwave Thread Spotify Playlist

thanks both :D

I had no idea it had proliferated quite to this extent

https://bandcamp.com/tag/plunderphonics?page=9&sort_field=pop

I love the seemingly endless amount of stuff in this genre, somehow this correlates with the nature of the music itself, endless variation and appropriation

phewee that's a lot of albums to listen to, 2k18 is gonna be busy!

I went through a handful last night and this one surfaced. It’s pretty telepath-y and ambient.
https://globalpattern.bandcamp.com/album/--5

Global Pattern uses the term - phaserwave - to describe themself (ves? And are there any vaporwave groups?)

the beatles

Surfing is an actual group, I think

happy new vapes

is there music to go w those images

ooh missed this from end of december
t e l e p a t h & Agia
https://telepathtelepath.bandcamp.com/album/the-light-of-our-love

it is beeeautiful :)

I glossed over that one after first listen but went back recently and yeah, it’s nice! I prefer telepath’s slushwave/phaserwave stuff but this is a welcomed release for sure.

absolutely digging the second track

hey it's new wosX!
i loved 'brasil world cup 2034' (namely 'golazo') & 'end of world rave' and this one seems to me to be a nice combo of the two...
https://dreamcatalogue.bandcamp.com/album/london-2041

I've really been enjoying See You When I Do by Shoji正治. Just very good dreamy stuff (for me).

xp this is an actual xp lol. Will check out the new wosX!

Thanks for the Shoji rec, it’s great

New 2814
Sold out

available to listen anywhere?

Not that I’ve found. Some samples on that page. Added to my soulseek wish list...hope it pops up soon

http://telepathtelepath.bandcamp.com/album/unison

Another new telepath and Agia collaboration LP today. man this dude doesn’t slow down. I like this one better than the first.

its p good! posted it in the rolling thread i started but if peeps prefer can stick the straight up vw stuff here
rolling time travel, bleep bloops, vaporwave, orange milk kinda stuff 2k18

I heard the new 2814 and they are, as I'd hoped, especially 'new sun,' transcendent. I'm so happy that hke is back on the scene and that he and t are collaborating again.

decided to give virtua.zip another spin, man I forgot how many tracks on this thing I absolutely love

amazing record thank u for reminding me of it
the amount of original stuff not relying on samples etc makes it so much more sweeter

^^^
That was one of the first ones I got into in the genre, though in retrospect it seems more chillwave than vwave.

I remember searching around in vain to find out what "mindless" was sampled from - didn't know who George Clanton was obviously

there's something to be said about how rediscovering stuff you used to love 15-20 years ago through YouTube or downloading VGMs from games you had fond memories of never really quite captures the magic you used to feel. but this album (despite being mostly sample-free) actually seems to nail it. for example a track like "peter" - I remember a whole bunch of stuff sounding like that
