You.. You get it completely. The glistening clear water graphics, the minimal but vibrant plants, the squeaky clean architecture and a bright blue sky in the back... That's what heaven is for me, early 2000's tropical videogame landscapes lol

[@Tenshii_Artii]

Not even joking. I love this kind of stuff also. So the first thing that came to mind was “Damn…any place like this existing in the real world? I would go there in a heartbeat!”

[@DONKEYKONG260]

.....have you people not explored vaporwave AT ALL?

[@jello5508]

@@DONKEYKONG260 ... vaporwave aims for a more cyber, 80's aesthetic. This is a more advanced 90's aesthetic with more solid graphics and lots of water. Nice try though, i guess

[@jello5508]

@@DONKEYKONG260 This stuff is also more akin to Frutiger Aero and y2k than it would with Vaporwave, just so you can be a bit more educated before babbling in comment sections! You seem to be all over the place here LOL

[@Tenshii_Artii]

@@jello5508 I just saw this guy legit say something like “As a Connoisseur of all music, you make me upset at your writing.” I laughed hard. If this dude is a professional with a legitimate career, then I feel embarrassed at their behavior. People who really are experts in their fields are surely not this asshole-ish.

[@calumsanderson6741]

this is how 1989-1992 sounds

[@My_Ghost1]

Mostly while play mario3

[@AckzaTV]

Not really. This sorta music wasn't actually popular, just good for video games etc... you know what was popular in 1989-1992? Uh yeah Michael Jackson and r&b ....you can even hear the r&b influence on these video game vaporwave songs. We really did just create our own version of a nostalgic feeling that we liked better than the disgusting stale ugly sweater drug sweat smelly itchy asbestos cancer crack cocaome flourescent light hellish 80s or 90s that they were... rose colored glasses my friends

[@because-strudels]

@AckzaTV Agreed there's some nostalgia in play, but they're not totally off base. Like the last half of Green Hill Zone. A good amount of this album has that warm (and rnb like you said) tonality that wasn't just present in games but in films and commercials, especially film credits Lol. Id say it's a fair statement.

[@eriks8382]

[@remembernavarro5344]

Finally some vaporwave with some production value instead of just taking a song and making it 5% slower. Pls make Volume 2!

[@walkingonneedles]

those are always annoying because they try to ride off of eccojams and floral shoppe, not understanding that theyre very heavily chopped and screwed looped samples beinf constantly fucked with or sometimes just left playing at the right length, never the entire song unedited

[@Kuro-Fumei]

Someone I knew didn't like the slowed old music vaporwave because it "sounds like whales moaning"

[@noahSomewhere12]

One time I spent an hour in audio editing software trying to determine the difference between a "vaporwave" track and the 90's jazz track it "sampled" only to conclude that there was a VERY slight downward pitch bend and that the vaporwave track was shorter lmao

This playlist is like having all the chaos emeralds injected into your veins

[@BlueNinjakoopa553]

Not only is this faithful to original melodies from the Sonic games, it also masterfully interpolates the rhythms, instruments, and other sounds from '90s hip-hop, dance, and R&B, but also modern vaporwave. As a connoisseur of music from the '90s, I approve of this playlist a lot. Like... Oil Ocean Zone is so reminiscent of G-funk lowrider music that I thought it was an actual Snoop Dogg song for a second.

[@funkysynths]

Wow, thank you very much 🙏

[@angelcontreras0203]

Funk Fiction + Gamechops you guys are amazing together. I'm a 90s kid and this is perfect. Oil ocean zone and green hill are my favorite! Thank you!

[@xcaluhbration]

My god, dude… The S3 MJ-“inspired” mini-boss integration into Angel Island Act 2 was the moment I knew you meant business ( 17:20 ). And the following xylo note is a serious “EyeWitness” intro throwback to us 90’s kids. Just brilliant: An absolute joy to soak in. And the background is so on point for all of it. Truly, only an artist, Sonic fan, and aficionado of 90’s culture could put all this together in one package. You have my ear, my thanks, and hopefully a wellspring of heartfelt recognition from anyone lucky enough to cross paths with this work. Sublime!

Can You Feel the Sunshine is one of my favorite Sonic tracks, and this remix goes extremely hard - especially when the lead synth comes in. To anyone who is thinking of skipping over this while listening: you'll regret it.

[@oscarpinchen4431]

These are literally the best Sonic fan tracks I've ever heard! Whoever's made all of these has really understood the old-school hip hop, funk, and other 90's music trends that would've been the inspiration for the game tracks. Huge old throwback to back in the day with the Sega Mega Drive!
