What is Vaporwave? (in 30 seconds) 

Vaporwave and all of its variations are really therapeutic. It's one of my favorite genres and one of my favorite things ever, it is so cool. I love it

If you have ever seen the night rain running down the windows of a neon lit Kmart, the mist swirling up from the wet blacktop of the parking lot, and been close to crying, you have been here.

I’m 50 years young, and I love vaporwave, because it incorporates all the media I grew up with. That and it’s soothing AF

vaporwave was the time capsule made from old artist to save the chosen people from horrible 2020 music

Vaporware is life

From what I can tell the theme is nostalgia and consumerism, its mostly about nostalgia of America's past but theres also a lot of japanese stuff too. Saint pepsi mostly makes a subgenre called "Future Funk".

Nice to see saint pepsi recognized

I never felt more understood until Vaporwave came out. :)

I want to make an art style that espouses the Vaporwave aesthetic.

So essentially the weather channel… Got it 👌🏽

The Internet checkpoint popped.up on RU-vid and it sent me through a vaporware joirney

Loved vaporwave when it first popped up when I was in high school. Being a late 90s baby and 2000s kid all of this stuff was still nostalgic and fire to me. I think a lot of the new underground scene branched off from this wave, even “pluggnb” I’d argue is an offshoot of the vapor wave pioneers in the 2010s!

Vaporwave makes me have a feeling no other genre has ever made me feel. Its nostalgic, but also so powerful. It brings back a lot of memories that i didn’t even have

Still Vaporwaving in 2024.

I love vaporwave

Take me back

This music is amazing and very well received.

I think Vaporware is more based on late 90s and early 00s. And from late 70s to early 90s is more of a Synthwave.

“by Macintosh plus” *lip smack*

Also chopping up songs and making it sound new while also retaining the original source

this mallsoft, and barberbeats is my go to

vaporwave is literally a part of my soul Bec of how much I LOVE it, LITTERALY EVERYTHING. thanks for making this video!

Dude I swear this started as a meme. I was 14 when it became popular and everyone joked about it and set it to memes as a joke. Back in 2013 One kid at my work didn't know that all of us teenagers were making jokes about it and put it on unironically and it was a brutal lashing we gave him hahaha

much better than most modern music

Thank you for creating this short. now when someone ask ms "WhAt'S VaPoRwAvE!?" I'll show them this video.

I only discovered VW as late as last late summer (somehow a bit too bad for being a 80s and 90s kid), but my life is enriched since then. For me VW is, strongly summarized, mainly relaxed commercial music/also often mallmusic. Yes, i do know there are subgenres (and boy, there seem to be a lot). But as an European we did probaly not have as really hardcore "mally" music as in the US of A, at least not all the time everywhere, but hey, like i said, as an 80s and 90s kid i grew up with American culture. So, Mallsoft and mallsofty VW are in a way such familiair sounds. I really do like it. Another good thing is that thanks to VW i, for instance, also came across Desert Sand Feels Warm At Night. However i found DSFWAN under the name of Vapor, in my mind it isn't that. It is really deep relaxation music, rather soundscapish imo. Before my discovery of Vaporwave i was already in (electronic) ambient and chillout music. Desert Sand i would certainly recommend if you like deep, drony ambient/chilloutisch music. Back to the core topic of VW: there is so much to discover, so much compilations. And another nice thing that Vw emulates to be reminescent of the era from roughly 1983 till Y2k. For me exactly the era with some of the best music but also culture. Vaporwave is the genre i didn't know i was missing.

That part where a blue text box comes up saying Do You Remember Our First Time Here? Is that like a Final Fantasy aesthetic? What is that clip even from right there? Is that from a vapor wave music video?

Vaporwave and future funk are the shit dudeeee

I ❤ vaporwave its not about twerking or fake body parts which is NICE

Great job man really nice video

2023: barberbeats

I like this genre

One time, when I was listening to Macintosh Plus 420. I didn't notice that I was Idosing because of this type of music.

What about Memphis rap? That’s where a huge section of vaporwave like loops were created.

❤GHOST POP TAPE!!!❤

I love this

I’ve been a Vapor junkie for coming up on a decade and a half now and I am not stopping at all, never did i ever have a genre that encapsulated who I am as a person so when I found vaporwave at about the age of 11 in 2012 I felt heard in a way. We 2000’s kids that grew up off mostly 80’s and 90’s media cause we were poor, we need an outlet too.

My faaaaaaaaave

I didnt need to know because i already knew it lol

I’ve gotten a lot of flack from friends who think my taste in music is strange or weird. Not to suggest those who listen to this kind of music is in any way better or smarter than others who don’t, but it certainly takes a particular kind of person to get and appreciate vaporwave and similar music

Love it :))

i personally think that 18 carat affair was the first vaporwave-specifically vhs pop. his first mixtapes came out in 2008

I hope vaporwave becomes the big music genre of the 2020s, 2030s or maybe even the 2040s like rock was in the 60s 70s and 80s

vaporwave reminds me a lot of future funk

You forgot the excessive use of purple.

I like ur video, good job, keep going ❤

If there are anyone looking for some vaporwave artists, some of my favourite are Macross 82-99, Yung Bae, Tupperwave and Future girlfriend music. There are a lott more amazing artists but these are the ones that immedietly come to mind for me. Happy listening! 🎶

Its very funky

Swag and Drip

So beautiful ❤

...That never was. Still reminesecent, if not very reminescent in places. I also like how the album in places lean to synthpop, like almost Synthwave. It has primarily an very heavy 80s vibes, '83-'86 vibes. Alltogether, super.

So where can I listen to more quality Vaporwave ?

Vector graphics 🔥

Its always hard to tell whether i can use vapor wave songs in my vids or not

Macontosh plus is my favorite.😊

Imma slave to that wave my bois

great video, would the style of infinity frequencies count as a branch of vaporwave?

One day it'll come back.. one day..

"underground"

I love it so much

Just sounds like muzak from the 80s

If you need someone to explain vaporwave to you, you're missing the point.

my music friends and i used to make fun of vaporwave...now i listen to it unironically.

Vaporwave feels like taking drugs

vaporwave is good 👍

one does not simply attempt to explain vaporwave in 30 seconds

Can anyone recommend any songs that TRULY incapsulate the feeling and soul of Saint Pepsi?

Vaporware is cool Vaporware enjoyers are cool

Very postmodern

Vaporwave is using software and music samples relating to heightened and overexaggerated commerciality in a way that creates a juxtaposing feeling towards its initial intent.....or something like that.

signalwave a subgenre is completely different

Cherry Pepsi is Future Funk, not Vaporwave (close enough though!)

what's the last song called

Whats the opening song called?

I demand video about dreamcore

Does anybody know the playlist name of the last image in this video??

Matter of believing

i thought vaporwave was about vaping?

Song at the end?

I CANT FIND THE 420 ONE IN APPLE MUSIC >:(

What are the BGM(s) name

What happened with simpsonwave?

What is the name of these songs at the beginning and the end

Devon hendryx

Saint Pepsi is not vaporwave... That's future funk!

28:54

lol

I know what vaporwave is, i just clicked as an excuse for more vaporwave content

Is this inspired by City pop?

Vaporwave was actually unique, too bad it died so unreasonably fast

*Twenty teens Not Two thousand tens

be ready to have this comments be full of purists lmao

nowadays vaporwave is bad, i think old vaporwave is unbeatable

I love viper the rapper

cool
