Blank Banshee - Eco Zones

[@Roboto2500]

Everything about blank banshee really emphasizes an era from not long ago. The sounds and visuals is like something from the early 2000s. The visuals in this music video alone remind me of dreamcast and playstation.

[@arizonateagod8491]

Kelly Van Diessen while blank banshee is fantastic and one of my favorite artists, this is very tame compared to how weird vaporwave can get. It's a very expansive genre, if you want weird vaporwave go listen to "I'll try living like this" by Death's Dynamic Shroud

I've been on this song for such a long time now. It nevers get old. At first, I got nostalgic of the days I'd play Donkey Kong Country on my SNES, but now I get nostalgic of the first time I discovered this song and the great genre that is vaporwave. Much love Blank Banshee.

[@darkmoon1892]

So wild to see Blank Banshee live on the 10th anniversary of this video coming out. A certified classic.

This probably Blank Banshee's most perfectly produced song. The mastering is immaculate.

[@이정민-h5l]

화자는 바다를 통해 언더그라운드와 오버그라운드의 경계를 표현하고 있습니다. 언더그라운드 아티스트들을 해양 생물에 비유해서 보여주는 것과 영상의 타임라인이 육지에서 바다 속으로 넘어가는 연출을 통해 서로의 간섭을 보여줍니다. 언더그라운드에 반하는 오버그라운드 아티스트들을 화자는 해적이라고 칭합니다. 오버그라운드 아티스트들이 언더에만 머물렀던 베이퍼웨이브와 애스테틱을 차용하기 시작하며 언더그라운드 고유의 감성에서 변질되어버립니다. 베이퍼웨이브의 성격 자체가 반 자본주의적이고 상업주의 음악에 대한 반기를 드는 형태이기에 이는 문화가 본질적으로 위협받는 상황이었습니다. 언더그라운드 아티스트들은 자신들 고유의 감성이 수면 위로 드러나는 상황을 지켜볼 수 밖에 없습니다. 매체에선 언더그라운드 힙스터들이 정착시킨 베이퍼웨이브의 스테레오타입이 그대로 차용되어 사용됩니다. 영상에서 말해지는 금액적 손실은 그들이 언더에서 정착시키고 발전시킨 문화 자체가 끌어올려져 더 이상 언더그라운드의 문화가 아니게 되어 문화의 본질이 흐려졌음을 의미합니다. 그것에서 비롯된 문화적 가치의 상실에 대한 피해는 주 생산, 소비층이었던 언더그라운드 아티스트들에게 돌아갑니다. 이후 언더에서 추구하던 베이퍼웨이브의 방향에 변화가 생기게 됩니다. 단순히 변화와 왜곡만을 가해 생산하며 어떤 허무한 감성만을 녹여내는 문화에서 베이퍼웨이브 자체의 오리지널리티를 찾으려는 시도가 일어납니다. 이 과정에서 기존 언더그라운드 문화가 아니게 되어버린 베이퍼웨이브의 종결을 선언하는 부류와 베이퍼웨이브 자체의 오리지널리티를 성립하려는 움직임을 보이는 부류로 갈라졌고, 화자는 전자라고 생각됩니다. 그에 대한 반증으로 본 작품 이후의 창작물들은 언더그라운드에서 정착시킨 베이퍼웨이브 바이브 자체의 어떤 스테레오타입이 결여되어있습니다.
