vaporware's a cool concept I think for its brashness but it's just some shit to listen to for 5 secs really

this is what i wanted chillwave to be before it all just turned into indie

eric copeland's alien in a garbage dump would prob be a good listen if you haven't already?

I mean its also a thing people probably make in five seconds so there's no real loss or anything

yeah, copeland is great

"deep ambient trash" otm.

i have to admit i was kind of thrilled to find this stuff, such brazen, consummate, overwhelming kitsch. this is what i wanted chillwave to be before it all just turned into indie. i think there's a core of numbness pulling at vaporwave which separates it from more blissful&beautiful [or sinister&dark] ambient or the triumph of /far side virtual/. there are hints of a subaqueous logic that might tie it all together, but a lot of these guys seem like loop monomaniacs & it's not helping them

I think some of Vektroid's releases are completely unaltered muzak tunes, not sampled, not looped, just the original song. I don't have a problem with this though

Tried to explain this to industry types at a she and him show tonight, they thought i was kidding

don't know this guy but
"Whether we're pushing our shopping cart through a retail store or sitting at an office desk laboring for a salary, somebody up there wants us to work harder, spend more money, and be a more productive cylinder in the engine of commerce. Might there be a simple way to get people to be more energetic, more creative, more generous; simply by manipulating their environment through something as simple as music? It has certainly been tried, and sold to the world's largest businesses. Commonly called by the name of its most recognizable vendor, muzak has long been the subject of scrutiny, science, and pseudoscience. Today we're going to see what it can do and what it can't."

oh-kay

people who are into vaporware should just like idk listen to madlib

puff puff post (uh oh I'm having a fantasy), Wednesday, 10 July 2013 02:09 (ten years ago) link

everyone should listen to madlib all the time though so it's not really vape-specific advice

*insert marijuana joke*

all three are good i guess?

how bad could it be to be stuck to the couch, forever... (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 10 July 2013 04:04 (ten years ago) link

madlib's music is more expensive

brimstead, Wednesday, 10 July 2013 04:15 (ten years ago) link

i make my own vaporwave

brimstead, Wednesday, 10 July 2013 04:19 (ten years ago) link

i honestly don't see the madlib/vapor wave connection

d'eon's "LP" seems to fit in w/ the vwave aesthetic

clouds, Wednesday, 10 July 2013 13:11 (ten years ago) link

18 Carat Affair is one of my favorites. I guess the Pure Gold album is like a best-of comp.

Dan I., Wednesday, 10 July 2013 13:54 (ten years ago) link

So I'm not sure if I even know what vaporwave is, but I feel like the new Mu-ziq album might be vaporwave-y?

Murder in the Rue McClanahan (jaymc), Wednesday, 10 July 2013 22:11 (ten years ago) link

it's a bit grand & untrashy but it's not far off

ogmor, Wednesday, 10 July 2013 22:19 (ten years ago) link

The guitar looping right now is apparently actually being played live

Dan I., Wednesday, 31 July 2013 04:26 (ten years ago) link

I mean not that it matters

Dan I., Wednesday, 31 July 2013 04:26 (ten years ago) link

two weeks pass...

Not Vaporwave but Vaporware - really enjoying this ambient loop type stuff on Donato Dozzy Plays Bee Mask which as the name suggests, is basically a remix album of Bee Mask made by Donato Dozzy.

three months pass...
one month passes...

That made me think of a thread i have saw recently-ish, that i thought i had saved, about city driving electronic music feel or something... basically it was about techno. can't find the keywords to find it. ilx enhanced suite.

the late night city aesthetic?

thanks. the mystery has evaporated. midnight cruisin' has a nice cover, though, i wouldn't mind having that lying around. this is all garbage anyway. barry white.. i need to get some sleep.
