12.19.15 | indeterminancy is far more pretentious, I'll give you that lol |
Archael
12.19.15 | "intelligent dance music" |
LotusFlower
12.19.15 | Why is vaporwave a "pretentious" genre name? |
olivianigma
12.19.15 | ok ok you win
I wish I had your encyclopedic knowledge of music genres :-( |
LotusFlower
12.19.15 | I mean I can see why someone would call IDM a pretensious genre name because it's literally saying its intelligent to other dance music, but I don't understand vaporwave. |
Archael
12.19.15 | i mean you're not wrong in that it's a silly name, i personally think it's pretty apt. i'm just sayin that there's some pretty dumb genre names out there. i accept them all, they're just dumb/silly. |
olivianigma
12.19.15 | my initial opinion of vaporwave was that it was pretentious because it seemed uninspired and boring. a title sprung from an outdated term for unreleased computer hardware turned me off to the genre without hearing any music from it because what does that have to do with the music, right? until somebody told me to listen to Floral Shoppe and then my mind kinda put everything together. |
olivianigma
12.19.15 | the name definitely suits the genre well |
Archael
12.19.15 | i appreciate it for what it is whenever i can
that said, i don't really like a whole lot of it :/ |
LotusFlower
12.19.15 | More people treated it like a meme and a "anyone can do it" kind of thing do anything good was instantly flooded by a bunch of garbage. |
Archael
12.19.15 | ^probably why
i dig the concept, aesthetic, and even the general sound of it (nostalgic, 80s pop/soul/funk that's been tampered with, with nods to ambient and lounge)
but a lot of the artists tend to have really mediocre songwriting skills :/ |

12.19.15 | vaporwave isnt just a genre anymore though. it's like some dumbass subculture obsessed with retro and "futuristic" japanese bs aesthetics tryna play it off as cooler than cool, etc. |
TheGreatQ
12.19.15 | but retro futuristic japanese aesthetics are cooler than cool |
guitarded_chuck
