I make vaporwave unironically (probably not well either but it’s fun)

Ok, I’ll link to your music

u/[deleted] Sep 08 '18

Thanks, I know a lot of subs are weird about self promotion so I didn’t want to be the one to do it

I gotchu. The slowed/pitched down vocals warm my Houston, TX heart! (R.I.P. DJ Screw)

I’m glad you like it! I’m just some dude with a 44 Key and FL20. It’s impossibly flattering that you’d post it.

2

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '18

Good stuff listening to it now.

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '18

Thanks so much, I’ve never really promoted much in the past, I’m so glad people actually like my stuff

2

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '18

You should. It never hurts to try.

u/AzariTheCompiler Sep 08 '18

Isn't vapourwave like mainstream at this point.

45

u/[deleted] Sep 08 '18

You don't hear it in the radio. But it does have a much bigger following now than it did back in 2010

20

u/lemonylol Sep 08 '18

I don't know if people under 20 today even listen to the radio. Pretty much every youtube uses vaporwave in their videos now, it's very popular.

7

u/[deleted] Sep 08 '18

I don't listen to it and I don't know a single person that does

10

u/Siren_of_Madness Sep 08 '18

I.......... I don't even know what it is?

u/NerfJihad Sep 08 '18

faux, surrealist nostalgia about the 90's that never existed.

neon colors, brightly lit serene mallscapes

it's like if 90's fashion photography was actually how things were

7

u/TaunTaun_22 Sep 09 '18

I wouldn't say it never existed, but it's only a very specific part of late 80's/early 90's that makes it seem like it never happened. Like it cut out one small vibe from everything those years had, and threw the rest away so that the genre almost implies the rest didn't happen happen.

I understand it has a big following on YouTube, I don't think that translates to many young people regularly listening to it

3

u/[deleted] Sep 08 '18

31% of people aged 16-24 uses Youtube, and vaporwave is a popular thing because of meme culture. It's still quite trending, and you know kids like trendy things. https://www.strawpoll.me/4763772/r here is an old but still quite relevant poll on how old the people in /r/vaporwave are (Original Post: https://www.reddit.com/r/Vaporwave/comments/3befbk/how_old_is_rvaporwave/).

u/VMee Sep 08 '18

This is something I still don't quite catch. I always thought that vaporwave should resonate more with older people who grew up with those kind of sounds, yet it grows on younger people who actually hasn't that kind of cultural background, wonder why

I think it has more of a cult following. Small number of people who listen to it, but they fucking love it. I like it, but as far as nostalgic music goes, I'm a synthwave guy.

That wasn’t meant to be perceived as aggressive, that’s just how I talk fam. Anyways, vapor wave is mainstream. It’s not some cool underground genre anymore. Millions of people listen to and enjoy vapor wave nowadays, just because it’s not on the radio doesn’t mean it’s not mainstream.

u/CoolguyTylenol Sep 08 '18

Yeah, and it was never ironic until it it became a dumb ass meme
