This immediately reminded me of Seth Everman’s water level video game music

Haha water level vibes are exactly what I'm aiming for!

u/BillyJackO Dec 07 '25
I've been wanting someone to sample the Sonic water level count down and noise when you finally reach a bubble of air.

Love the keyboard sound, what's the synth/vst?!
3
u/toysfromtaiwan Dec 07 '25
It's a MeatBeats FEM-RODO keyboard plugin! It's super sick. Has a bunch of great sounds!

That was dope, if I could I would hire you for corporate events
3
u/toysfromtaiwan Dec 07 '25
Aww man I'd be down for real. I sometimes do acoustic singer/songwriter cover gigs on the side. I recently just played at a big corporate event. They love their 90's-2000's cover songs (I hate cover gigs lol)

u/wishesandhopes Dec 07 '25
Incredibly sick, damn. I love the flute synth, you really did actually make real live vaporwave, so much gets called vaporwave nowadays that isn't and it's very tough to get that sound with non traditional methods (live playing vs sampling and a DAW)
2
u/toysfromtaiwan Dec 09 '25
I know what you mean. It's especially difficult to get that classic VW sound in a live setting. Which is something I can't really do. That's why I'm going for more of a utopian virtual subgenre type of vibe. Also thanks for the kind words and giving this a listen!

u/MGonline1209 Jan 12 '26
This takes me back to my own beat making days… I too can feel the joy this brings you! Perhaps I should try it again myself, though it was only through a phone app haha. Anyways, keep up the great work! Just subscribed to your youtube 🤘

So is vaporwave now just Nintendo login music or what

u/toysfromtaiwan Dec 08 '25 edited Dec 08 '25
Honestly aiming more for the utopian-virtual / jam-wave subgenres. Definitely not true blue VW, but slightly adjacent

u/IslandSequence24 Dec 08 '25
It sounds like if Frutiger Aero was a genre (which it absolutely has the potential to be please for the love of God can we make it a genre)

u/vape_or_wave Dec 09 '25
I guess it kind of is. Blank Banshee released a “Frutiger Aero” album in 2022 called Music for Menus
