This is my favorite subgenre of vaporwave. It's exactly how I picture a futuristic, yet emotionless, robotic mall plaza. It's all controlled by automatic intelligence. And it's strangely, strangely comforting.
I think it's comforting because it's an environment where everything is designed and controlled, just like real ultra-modern urban areas. All risks are removed on purpose and things are set up for your comfort and safety. You're not vulnerable to scary, chaotic nature, unlike how much of the world's people live today.
I may be the only vaporwave fan that is actually in old enough to remember living in a distinctly vaporwave reality as a young adult in the 90s. I wore Structure, Gap and Nautica, and smelled of The Gap’s signature “grass scent”. I worked at The Body Shop. Had the first iMac. Later, worked in the corporate world of art consulting just after 9/11. High rises and empty corporate facilities at night were my working day.
I still adore this genre and haven’t stopped listening to it. As much as its a critique in a sense of the consumeristic world, it’s also an extremely comforting genre for me. I always imagine myself living in some second life type world, being in a massive virtual mall with marble and palm trees, clear water.
This exploring is something I adore doing. I have spent time on many nights for years doing it and have found some jewels, but I still feel like I haven't experienced a lot compared to what I see
Pad Chennington, I don’t know how or why you ended up in my recommended, but I’m not complaining! Your material is written *so well.* Its almost like I’m listening to a documentary!
Thank you for making videos explaining vaporwave and related genres. I had been listening to bits and pieces, not knowing what it was. Now I do and i have new music to explore. I'm psyched.
Us 90s kids have grown up with and learned to cope with 8, 32 & 64 bit bottle rockets that have forced us to constantly hit a ceiling of promising, yet failing technology to compensate the subrogation of "the real thing". This uncanny valley of realism has a special nostalgia like no other era, in that our digital disappointment has become nostalgic.
Dang your vids are always so solid. You have a way of talking about vaporwave that is concise and makes sense to people who haven't even heard it. I always recommend your videos to people who haven't heard vaporwave to try and get them interested 👍
I love the descriptions that you give. They seem so real and detailed and gives me a good idea of what I would want to listen to if I was new to the vaporwave genre.
eco-virtual is great, definitely could've put an album on here of EV! did a vaporware essentials series episode on an eco virtual album so I decided to just keep it at these 4 albums
I'm glad I was wrong when I thought Vaporwave was dead, having a limited knowledge of songs and having known only one person in my entire life who knew about the genre felt a bit... "desolating"?
I always keep coming back to your videos, I love your analyses and how you can describe the experience of listening to the different genres masterfully.
Thanks so much Tate, and thanks for watching! I love talking about these genres, I find taking about them in an imaginative, subjective and conversational sense is so much more fun than trying to do like a "checklist-style" break down of every little aspect of the genre
a new comment from someone who discovered this video! those memos from my very childhood i used to explore largest/local printing house. i heard something like similar (been checking the utopian virtual Genre) and now i am here...
I forgot all about the Home album, seeing the artwork made me nostalgic from when it came out. I don't even know that much vaporwave but somehow I stumbled upon that album when it came out
I’ve always loved this flavor of vaporwave. Home was so hype when it came out, and I still remember when I was listening to Googleplex on the Dream Catalogue BC. sick vid
Honestly, Giant Claw has some amazing music with that feel. Interestingly technical, experimental, and complex compositions that only need to be in its midi-sounding form for the listener to be enjoyed
I was pleasantly surprised when I saw this in my notifications. I was expecting this to be release next week like Pad said on his twitter. Pad just pulled a sneaky on us.
I just recently discovered your channel and I’m really enjoying every video that I watch. Each one is just as interesting if not more interesting than the last-thank you! Keep up the incredible work!
Great video on the importance and role of Utopian Virtual within the greater vaporwave movement. When I was newly getting into vaporwave music and learning to appreciate the various aspects of its aesthetic appeal, I remember always having this thought that the anonymous nature of its creators was an important part of enjoying the music and kind of 'suspending disbelief'. When I started to learn more about the genre and its creators, and I learned about some of the real people, the faces and names, behind the online monikers, I noticed that my appreciation for the music only improved. Seeing the real people behind the music chnages it, though. Those real people make you see the creation of the music and think of the thought processes that led to and undermine the tracks. They make you remember the components of the music being manipulated and combined have been touched by people who appreciate the past and are fascinated by the future, just like you. When you don't see the artist, only a pseudonym, it is easier to think of the music as otherworldly or untouched by man. While this can be great, it can be just as enriching or more to see the artist behind the music.
there aren't that many of them out there but I can definitely recommend Cight's Architecture EP along with his other projects. Lots of features from other big names in the genre.
@@PadChennington nxxxxs its raining today is a great album. ive never heard of holy trap either, but i listen to misogi and nxxxxs, misogi, meshgang, sadboys all had a distinct sound from 2013 - 2015. would love to see your take on the sound!!
Pad Chennington I’ve never heard it called holy trap and I know people who’ve worked with misogi and fifty grand but you need to cover whatever it is it’s like a wave of sad experimental aesthetic trap which incorporates many different instruments white shinobi boygem Bbno$ shiro Misogi Ranov ( especially Ranov ) & many more that lather the soundscape of SoundCloud.
Every time i listen 18 Carat Affair's Spent Passions i imagine this series of sad films found at the back of some old video rental shop. please make a video on this interesting album
The other Vektroid album that was around that time on the BOTR label is also pretty utopian. I forgot the name, but its a super long, 75 minute album. Edit: 札幌コンテンポラリー by 情報デスクVIRTUAL
There's a UK artist who goes by Murlo. He has a very unique and distinct sound. He's also an animator and illustrator. I encountered him through the instrumental grime scene that had a revival round 2013 on this VA called BXDLDN of which there were two volumes, allong with many others that were coming up back then. Really good stuff. I personally think that his work is groundbreaking although very much overlooked.
@@PadChennington Sure man. You'll find that his sound design is really unique. Lots of contrast as the melody are kind of "icey" ( proper eski tings! lol), yet the bass is ususally warm, and I love his drums. He does quite a bit of interesting R&B, UK Funky, Garage, Dancehall and some Grime. He's also got this one track called Icebound that is like a dark and misty dancehall riddim. I would call it UK club music, with a mythological/philosophical or fantasy theme basically. Some of it is also just dreamy compositions, not necessarily dance tracks. He just came out with a graphic novel to accompany his most recent release. Edit: I should also add that his work has recently appropriated some happy hardcore and nostalgic hardcore vibes. So it's def heading in a more quintessentially "rave" direction. in my opinion, he's definitely showing his versatility, and that's where I gather his pursuits are authentically artistic in the purist sense of the term.

hey man, just discovered your channel and this is some great coverage of vaporwave and the like, keep it up! This channel is one of my go-to's for discovering new albums to delve into What song/track is playing when you introduce "High Fashion Mood Music" at around 8:55 in the video tho?
Where is PrismCorp Virtual Enterprises Home album? Not finding it on bandcamp. Or Eyeliner High Fashion Mood Music. I have noticed that some artists, releases and labels have been disappearing. Even being geo-blocked or censored online. There are subscriptions missing.
Hey:) Casual reminder that if people are that they when you feel like its there to them... Ask the one! Theres nothing wrong with which one that we dont know.... We are only there. Hope this helps:)
dunno if it is new retro wave , synth pop or chill trap But Alex - Paradise ( feat. Ruta - Absolute Valentine Remix) is an EPIC song and brings peace e pleasure
@@PadChennington This has been my favorite subgenre of vaporwave (and pretty much music in general at this point) for years and I so rarely see it getting talked about. Much appreciation- love your videos.
Yo! I don’t know if you still read comments, but I think a… interesting genre you could take a look at is Extratone. Basically noise music that you can still find the pure base of the music in it.
Pad, I started making a vaporwave song, and it sounded something like Freed From The World, an album I would not have known about without your channel. I'm thinking of continuing this pattern and making something similar to that album. Do you think that's a good idea? I love you channel by the way, and thanks for getting me into mallsoft and signal wave - some amazing content!
Thank you so much for replying to my comment! If I finish it, chances are it will be on this Bandcamp page alongside some poorly made meme I made a while ago: fireemblem27.bandcamp.com/releases Thanks again Pad; you’re one of my favorite music channels on RUclips!!
Not sure if it's the right genre but One Hundred Mornings by Windows96 it's one of the best thigns I've listen to lately and I've only found out about them last year
I think that vaporwave itself is a collection of different sub-genres. In other words, there is no one album out there that can be defined as purely vaporwave, but instead as a vaporwave album placed into one of its many sub-genres.
I've been a fan of vaporware since the seapunk days. It's all subgenres, vaporwave is just a basket; like rock music for example, you got hard rock, arena rock, soft rock, but all the subs are almost interchangeable after a little while.
Dude, what is the song playing when your talking about Eyeliner? I know it's some vaporwave remix of Tame Impala's "Yes I'm Changing" but I can't find it.
another great nerdcore analysis! Check out LORDSUN’s -LOVE FROM PEACH - vapor trap but w/ a nice boom bap simplicity to it - plus very upbeat -i always bump it when its sunny a genre defying tune i def think you’ll dig :)

I may be the only vaporwave fan that is actually in old enough to remember living in a distinctly vaporwave reality as a young adult in the 90s.

Later, worked in the corporate world of art consulting just after 9/11. High rises and empty corporate facilities at night were my working day.
Oh man, if you like “High Fashion Mood Music,” you HAVE to check out “LARP of Luxury.” Gotta be my favorite Eyeliner album.
ayyy Abigail! LARP of Luxury is killer! so is Buy Now, Eyeliner puts out some great stuff..
You can be my favourite album.

Atmospheres 1-4 all day!
Eyeliner is one of my favorite producers of all time. I didn’t even know there was more music like this.
buy now is great, wish I copped the vinyl.
Pad you should discuss the origin of plunderphonics (pre-vaporwave)
I got some stuff in the werkssss ;)
Mister Amazing already did
Mr. Chennington, I watched 8 minutes worth of ads in an effort to support you.
tbh your descriptions of the albums make me wanna use your narrations for making vaporwave XD
I'm glad I was wrong when I thought Vaporwave was dead, having a limited knowledge of songs and having known only one person in my entire life who knew about the genre felt a bit... "desolating"?

Yes I was wondering that too!

This one maybe?
What‘s that song at 8:58?
another great nerdcore analysis! Check out LORDSUN’s -LOVE FROM PEACH - vapor trap but w/ a nice boom bap simplicity to it - plus very upbeat -i always bump it when its sunny a genre defying tune i def think you’ll dig :)
