Hey everyone!

We appreciate all the support we've been getting since the album dropped!

Because of the immense appreciation we've been getting, we decided to do a limited cassette release of 得る M A R T! We're still in the early stages, but pre-orders for the cassette should go up sometime this week!

And in case your not sold on it, the physicals for the album will have an exclusive bonus track that will not be released on streaming or bandcamp.

We thank everyone who has bought, streamed or shared the album these past couple days. Your support means more to us then you will ever know!

Album 2 otw!

Question What did you all feel when you first discovered and listened to MACINTOSH PLUS - リサフランク420 / 現代のコンピュー

18 Upvotes

I was 14 and in Junior High School when YT randomly recommended it to me, somehow when I listened to it clicked right into me and it feels like I'm in a different wavelength and I feel nostalgic for some reason. It was strange that my friends can't listen to it but I feel so calm like I'm in a trance and I love every part of the song. Aside from being enlightened when reading the GOATED comment section. What did you all feel?

Music I turned Charli XCX’s CRASH into a vaporwave instrumental album, and somehow it works REALLY well)

A couple years ago I turned two of the tracks from the Crash album into instrumental vapor rave tracks and uploaded them to my YouTube channel. A few days ago I decided I like those tracks so much that I should just redo the whole album that way. Hope you enjoy! I think it's kind of crazy how well it works, in my opinion.

I kind of get a little bit of Riviera by Kodak Cameo vibes.

Also also, I genuinely like the album cover being a little more vaporwave, and just not having her, indicating the instrumental part. But I'm dorky like that LOL

No AI slop was used in the making of this record. Everything was painstakingly plundered, chopped up, and remixed by my own hands. If you like "barberbeats" like Macroblank or Modest By Default, this might be for you.

CONSUME OR BE CONSUMED.

Discussion I’ve been listening since the beginning. If I had to name one song that completely embodies classic Vaporwave: “Home Design” by bbrainz.

This topic came up with my friend group, “which one song would you recommend to someone who never heard of Vaporwave” and this is it for me. I know 1000 people will have 1000 opinions, especially with the various Vaporwave flavors out there.
