Saint Pepsi (Skylar Spence) - Alright
MORE FROM Saint Pepsi (Skylar Spence)
My recent music hasn't really actually been vaporwave. More vaporwave influenced than anything. I don't really follow the aesthetic, sometimes not even the production techniques. I still have this urge to contribute to it. I don't know why.
I actually sped a sample up on a track on Part 1. I'm a fraud.
In response to a plethora of questions about "vaporwave that sounds like [insert artist]" or music that achieves a certain aesthetic, I have created this: a breakdown of vaporwave and its various subcategories and aesthetics.
This list also includes music either inspired by vaporwave or an influence itself. Not meant to be exhaustive but a primer essentially.
A timeline for vaporwave is in the works, detailing First Wave, Second Wave, and afterwards.
CONCERNS
Q: Why isn't [blank] on this list?
A: I'm open to suggestions however these are the most explicit examples for each subgenre, with some gems sprinkled in.
Q: Saint Pepsi/Blank Banshee/Etc. isn't vaporwave, why are they on the list?
A: Artists that have questionable vaporwave credentials are put under appropriate subgenres. While there is a lot of doubt about many artists, they are notable enough to be included. Note however that I do explicitly state my reasoning for their inclusion and they don't necessarily have to be vaporwave to be here.
Q: Where can I find links to these?
A: vaporwav.es is the archive for most vaporwave releases, you can find most of these releases on there. Any that aren't, can be found easily by googling. They are all available on Bandcamp or SoulseekQT. If that fails, message me and I'll help you out.
Q: Some of these subgenres don't have that many artists in them, why include them?
A: There's actually a great deal in all of them, believe me. I have limited about five releases to each subgenre for the purposes of brevity.
Q: Are these made-up?
A: Muzakcore and fringewave are just easier titles to identify certain types of music. Segahaze, eccojams, and others have been in use. They simply escape the nomenclature because vaporwave is a good catch-all term.
In case there was any confusion, a list for vaporwave subgenres.
broporwave is fun. leave it alone
