Share your vaporwave music, videos, and aesthetic art. All in one place!

Before you start posting and interacting, please take a moment to familiarize yourself with general community guidelines to ensure a positive and enjoyable experience for everyone.

  1. Follow the Lemmy Rules: The Lemmy rules apply in addition to our community specific guidelines. See link or image below:

  2. Self-Promotion Guidelines: Self-promotion is welcome, but within reason. Multiple posts are allowed since we are just starting out, but keep it interesting and unique!

  3. Sourcing and Credit: Please provide proper credit and sources for any music/videos you post if possible. It isn't necessarily required to post here, but it definitely helps people find songs that may be hard to search up.

  4. Discussion and Critique: Engage in meaningful discussions and critique, but keep it constructive. Use common sense!

  5. NSFW Content: Pornography is not allowed. Keep in mind there are some ballsy users who may browse Lemmy in public spaces without NSFW filters. Try to label and tag NSFW content appropriately and avoid explicit or overly offensive material.

  6. Sensible Titles: Use coherent and descriptive titles for your posts when possible. Since vaporwave has many stylized fonts and text, we are pretty relaxed about this. Just don't add things such as links/adverts in the title.

  7. Relevant Content Only: This should be obvious, but please avoid posts that are unrelated to vaporwave. We really don't want to remove posts unless it's something like spam.

  8. Have Fun! Federated sites have much more freedom for users. You should be able to post without worrying about it being removed immediately over thousands of arbitrary rules. We want users to feel at home! Memes about vaporwave are allowed.

We are still new like most people that are migrating from Reddit. There's going to be some growing pains along the way and it's also going to take time for everyone to get used to things. Be patient!

Remember, the Vaporwave Lemmy Community is a place to celebrate and discuss this unique and captivating aesthetic and music. Enjoy your time here!

Hello world! /u/SeventySeven here to welcome you all to the /c/vaporwave community!

                      💾 What to Expect:

🎵 Vapor Sounds: Groove to the ethereal beats of vaporwave music. Share your favorite tracks, discover hidden gems, and reminisce about the tunes that transcend time.

🎨 Aesthetic Artistry: Immerse yourself in the mesmerizing visuals of the vaporwave aesthetic. From glitch art to nostalgic imagery, this is the place to showcase your creativity and appreciate the works of others.

📼 Nostalgia Galore: Remember the days of VHS tapes, CRT monitors, and cassette players? Relive those moments and discuss the cultural impact of the past on our present. We're pretty chill here on the fediverse and love the discussion!

📸 Vaporwave Photography: Capture the surreal beauty of urban landscapes, neon lights, and deserted malls. Share your aesthetic art or rare releases, we don't mind! Anything goes as long as it's vaporwave.

Last, but certainly not least:

📺 Vaporwave Music Videos: An essential part of vaporwave. While the music alone creates it's own feeling, the video/visuals add to it immensely, especially for this genre of music where aesthetics are half the fun! Post any music videos here.

Questions? Please contact /u/SeventySeven

Edit: And uhhh, i'm probably going to be the only person posting for a bit in order to get things going. Of course, posting is enabled for all users so don't think it's just mods who can post, post away!

This one is interesting, as it's sort of not-purchasable. It was delisted a while ago. It also has a fun(?) story:

All songs were written and recorded by Eco Virtual on a laptop and mastered direct to cassette tape in 2010. The original files were lost shortly after leaving only one master tape, which was damaged. This audio recording is a digital conversion of what was left on that tape. All songs were composed for the documentary film 'Wildlife Canada' produced and directed by Eco Virtual.

I enjoyed watching the documentary, it's ~9 minutes. Maybe I even learned something? You can access the album download through archive.org: https://archive.org/details/ECOVIRTUAL-WILDLIFECANADA

Anyway, 'Salt Marsh' is my favorite track from this. Happy Friday, vaporwavers!

Hello Vaporwavians!

As a Vaporwave Enjoyer, I'd like to see some more life in this community! To that end, I'm going to try and make a weekly post sharing my favorite tracks. I encourage you to do the same!

First up, as an ~~computer~~ person who assists others often, it's my theme song: コンピューターマン (Computer░Man) from ꜰᴏʀᴇᴠᴇʀ ᴍɪᴅɴɪɢʜᴛ.

Check it out!
