Yknow, I never realized there was such a community surrounding vaporwave and it’s development as a genre, but there’s so many things I’d love to say about many of those albums, and I pretty much agree 100% with your assessments here. I’m too young to fully understand the significance of News at 11, but that one got me through a lot of tough assignments years back. Oh, and mannequin challenge, that came at such a pivotal time in my life that I legitimately remember listening to it the day it released. I vividly remember one of my teachers checking some kind of tab monitoring software and just asking aloud to the class “What’s Saint Pepsi?” and I kind of just had to explain myself. It’s wild stuff, I never really had much of a taste in music until this scene got me into music in general.

Funny how Fantano reviewed Faith In Persona and said that it could become another breakout project for the genre. Probably not compared to the older DDS stuff, but it's funny that just because HE decided to dive back into vaporwave he thinks that it's relevant (or is becoming relevant) to all major music fans now. I don't necessarily think it is, and do we really want vaporwave to become super popular and watered down in the mainstream? The Weeknd already tried it with poor results.

@arturoromero17982 жыл бұрын
Definitely missing “Vacant Places” by Hangsai, waterfront dining’s “Swag,” HFM’s “Tumble down and die,” and “Dense Fog” by desert sand! Would’ve also like to have seen Zeldawave (seriously should be considered THE Vapor classic) and Tupp’s Baby I miss You! Great list though!!!

Eeehhhhsorry Pad, I love your channel and all but....where do I begin? Albuns that should be in a higher tier: Virtua.Zip (at least B tier) Blank Banshee 0 (is just as good as Mana Pool imo, so A) Buy Now (sample-free, catchy and clean tracks, wtf is doing in B, is A material at least). Albuns that should be lower: EccoJams (C - yeah I know is the first vw album and all, but is more of a joke, and unlike FS, it's nothing I relisten to very often) A Million Miles Away (A - a few tracks really stand out, like Horsey, Lovers and Fugaz, others are just your average FF material). World Class (B - I love LE, but personally, I think Noir is better, and also how is a sample-heavy album higher than a sample-free (BN) album anyway?) Late Night Delight (A - but only bc Enjoy Yourself and Can't Afford are just too good, else it would be B for me) Floral Shoppe (A - great way to introduce people into vw, that's how I got into enjoying the genre, but Ramona has a lot of albuns better than that, I mean I'm a bit disappointed that Clear Skies, released under her Prismcorp alias, couldn't make it to this tier list tbh) And special mention to Bae, that shouldn't even be here imo. Don't get me wrong, there are a few good hits here, but even back in 2017, when I've got introduced to this genre and listened to Bae almost every day, it felt a bit trashy compared to other FF albuns that got released around that same time back then.
