Sorry, this is their first one. New to me and I got overly excited since I love Birth of a new day so much.

And happy to see the credited author is ilx's own Whiney.

11 gigs of vapor's greatest hits?https://mega.nz/#F!iwABUApY!MaExct8QR-gKyg_2zdt1YA

calstars, Saturday, 16 September 2017 02:21 (six years ago) link

absolute dynamite
and seemingly the only place to get a few of these :)

nxd, Saturday, 16 September 2017 18:26 (six years ago) link

The volume of stuff to comb through is fantastic and daunting
Some nice chording on the sacred tapestry track 移住

calstars, Tuesday, 19 September 2017 02:55 (six years ago) link

Thanks for the download link. I now have more vaporware than I'll ever be able to digest. It's all pretty good though. I enjoyed the Nmesh track that samples "Take My Breath Away".

Moodles, Tuesday, 19 September 2017 03:02 (six years ago) link

I prefer the original and ambient stuff over than the detuned 70s and "virtual" subgenres

calstars, Tuesday, 19 September 2017 03:11 (six years ago) link

I generally agree, but that one works in a weird way

Moodles, Tuesday, 19 September 2017 03:14 (six years ago) link

4 new compilation records from dream catalogue
all on https://dreamcatalogue.bandcamp.com/

nxd, Friday, 13 October 2017 13:47 (six years ago) link

Yeah, they're called Chaos....I've been working my way through them slowly. Seems to be more a bit more electronica on them on the whole than vwave

calstars, Friday, 13 October 2017 15:30 (six years ago) link

I guess GG Masin talk goes on an ambient thread but this track sounds pretty vapey to me.. except for the trumpet, which really takes me out of it.

couple of cute little eps released in the summer on +100
less than 10 mins long each, but both nice slices of chillness
https://plus100.bandcamp.com/album/sports-ep
finest sports themed vw release since 'us golf 95'?
https://plus100.bandcamp.com/album/illumina-ep
this one reminds me of 'paradise disc' the penultimate track off blank banshee 1

nxd, Monday, 30 October 2017 11:18 (six years ago) link

Those are nice, if somewhat undistinguished, but hey this is vw, so it’s to be expected !

calstars, Monday, 30 October 2017 11:48 (six years ago) link

ha yeah
i like these way more when they're 10 mins long and not a 40 minute album

nxd, Monday, 30 October 2017 11:51 (six years ago) link

this rules, very of the genre
https://soundcpu.bandcamp.com/album/sunset-melody

while this is great too - glitch pop meets video game music (holly herndon vs dk country as u were)
https://noumenalloom.bandcamp.com/album/toiret-status-nyoi-plunger

both have excellent record covers too, for differing reasons

nxd, Friday, 10 November 2017 10:34 (six years ago) link

https://ssurfing.bandcamp.com/track/moonlight

Nice one from ‘12

calstars, Friday, 17 November 2017 14:14 (six years ago) link

gorgeous

nxd, Friday, 17 November 2017 14:28 (six years ago) link

"lifeline" and "hit the spot" off that albums are classic jams

brimstead, Friday, 17 November 2017 15:21 (six years ago) link

three weeks pass...

Enjoying darkpyramid lately

For those compiling your year-end lists, this playlist includes all the available tracks on this thread, organized roughly chronologically in order of mention:

Chocolate-covered gummy bears? Not ruling those lil' guys out. (ulysses), Sunday, 10 December 2017 22:01 (six years ago) link

thanks both :D

nxd, Tuesday, 12 December 2017 10:50 (six years ago) link

I had no idea it had proliferated quite to this extent

Milton Parker, Tuesday, 19 December 2017 00:06 (six years ago) link

I love the seemingly endless amount of stuff in this genre, somehow this correlates with the nature of the music itself, endless variation and appropriation

calstars, Tuesday, 19 December 2017 01:11 (six years ago) link

phewee that's a lot of albums to listen to, 2k18 is gonna be busy!

nxd, Tuesday, 19 December 2017 09:30 (six years ago) link

I went through a handful last night and this one surfaced. It’s pretty telepath-y and ambient.
https://globalpattern.bandcamp.com/album/--5

calstars, Tuesday, 19 December 2017 12:18 (six years ago) link

Global Pattern uses the term - phaserwave - to describe themself (ves? And are there any vaporwave groups?)

calstars, Wednesday, 20 December 2017 22:32 (six years ago) link

the beatles

Men's Scarehouse - "You're gonna like the way you're shook." (m bison), Wednesday, 20 December 2017 22:49 (six years ago) link

Surfing is an actual group, I think

brimstead, Thursday, 21 December 2017 00:54 (six years ago) link

is there music to go w those images

Mordy, Tuesday, 2 January 2018 18:55 (six years ago) link

t e l e p a t h & Agia
https://telepathtelepath.bandcamp.com/album/the-light-of-our-love

it is beeeautiful :)

nxd, Wednesday, 17 January 2018 10:03 (six years ago) link

I glossed over that one after first listen but went back recently and yeah, it’s nice! I prefer telepath’s slushwave/phaserwave stuff but this is a welcomed release for sure.

calstars, Wednesday, 17 January 2018 22:34 (six years ago) link

absolutely digging the second track

nxd, Thursday, 18 January 2018 13:17 (six years ago) link

hey it's new wosX!
i loved 'brasil world cup 2034' (namely 'golazo') & 'end of world rave' and this one seems to me to be a nice combo of the two...

I've really been enjoying See You When I Do by Shoji正治. Just very good dreamy stuff (for me).

xp this is an actual xp lol. Will check out the new wosX!

♫ very clever with maracas.jpg ♫ (Le Bateau Ivre), Wednesday, 24 January 2018 13:44 (six years ago) link
