guess this is not quite vaporwave but if i post on the other rolling electronic/techno threads it'll just get buried

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
I know this is an old post but I've been thinking about this a bit. I've been listening to the 情報デスクVIRTUAL album quite a bit lately and I decided to listen to the originals (you can find most of them on whosampled.com). They aren't completely unaltered - everything seems to be pitched down 15% or so, there are a few loops, and most of the tracks are excerpts - but for the most part she's just sampling easy listening and New Age records. It isn't even muzak or infomercial stuff, it's like...John Tesh and David Sanborn. The whole thing is like a brilliant prank, attempting to get kids who hang out on /mu/ or reddit digging the same shit they'd make fun of their moms for listening to.
(and yes, I dig the album too)

beautiful
fairly new record from one half of death's dynamic shroud.wmvhttps://dreamcatalogue.bandcamp.com/album/flight"The follow up to 2012’s ‘Honeybee’ on Orange Milk, ‘Flight’ is a return to Webster’s progressive rock past with new ideals he has learned from his explorations in dds.wmv, taking the guitar-based experimentalism of the former and integrating the twisted audio manipulation of the latter to create something unique for the artist. Conceptually, it arrives from a similar place as ‘Honeybee’ too, in that HCMJ uses the music as an outlet for his own internal anxieties."
also new on dream catalogue, & very different to the above, ends with an almost wolfgang voigt esque movementhttps://dreamcatalogue.bandcamp.com/album/integrating-clouds
away from dream - probs belongs on the future funk thread but i guess it goes down here too, hit vibes vibes obvshttps://desired.bandcamp.com/album/the-sweetest-dream

wait, how did you get a .jpg to do that
such a beautiful cover. I wish I liked the music more.
that HCMJ album is pretty awesome so far. definitely gonna be tossing 4 lbs that way once I get home. I really oughta listen to that Best of Dream Catalogue comp I got.

Hosono's Coincidental Music is definitely a great example of proto-vapor. One of the cool things about following this scene is watching people discover this stuff organically who definitely wouldn't otherwise. I'm very amused that Pacific is starting to reach a new audience - not his best work, but still.
here's another version of that first track - better, in my opinionhttps://youtu.be/OWHL-lc3xpM?t=21m41s

On the hyper/breakbeat tip is SAYOHIMEBOU (a la Machine Girl, Vaperror, Foodman)http://music.businesscasual.biz/album/ok
honestly this stuff isn't really vaporwave, but uses its imagery, retro-futuristic fetish and *some* of the sound sources to make sugar rush IDM. and there's a Kool & the Gang cover!

Alex Koenig seems like he'd be a good guy to crack open a cold one with. probably the only vaporwave musician I could say that about.
it just went on for too long is all xp

Have folks heard this?https://dantemarsajeto.bandcamp.com/album/celebrating-digital-artifacts
weirdo plunder-pop, kind of post-Econo Jams hypnagogic...or something or other. If Future Funk is on the low stakes end for vaporwave, this is probably on the more ambitious end.----
also, re: Hosono, check out that SAYOHIMEBOU I posted above as well, as it's kind of a 21st Century update to Cochin Moon
― Dominique, Monday, 24 July 2017 17:21 (six years ago) link
New Nmesh album is out and it's pretty fuckin wild. It's not even really vaporwave, more like a plunderphonic EDM album (one track is Squarepusher-like drum n bass), but if you dig his other stuff you'll probably like this too. Not even done listening yet and I think it's his best one.
― frogbs, Monday, 7 August 2017 02:23 (six years ago) link
sweeti'm guessing it's the one up on orange milk? fell behind with them - popped open their bandcamp and there's about 10 records i'd missedgonna be a good morning
― nxd, Monday, 7 August 2017 08:19 (six years ago) link
btw thanks for the Sayohimebou rec, listening now and it's quite good. not sure I hear the similarity to Cochin Moon, it just sounds like a pure sugar rush to me
this may be of interest to some of you, apparently there's a legit Floral Shoppe vinyl you can get now:https://oesbee.bandcamp.com/album/floral-shoppe
always kind of resented how this album overshadowed the rest of Vek's discography but whatever, I still bought one

― brimstead, Monday, 7 August 2017 18:41 (six years ago) link
btw those into the Hosono Monad stuff should probably check out Internet Club's Vanishing Vision - the track "Zones" in particular sounds so much like '85 Harry
