delurking to point out that all adam harper's articles read like first year undergrad essays
and I actually think he grossly misunderstands pc music and is pretty detrimental to the whole thing
it's basically the same thing that happened with normcore a while back where everyone equivocated the movement with the thing it's directly opposed to
pc mus is many things but definitely NOT ironic

I haven't really looked into the whole vapourwave/pc music thing at all but I do like a couple of Sophie's tunes... Not Lemonade though, that's too much cheese for me

I'm confused.
Some stuff in this thread sounds like synth pop crossed with triphop/down tempo which is pretty decent and the other stuff is just cheesey pop music?
Is John Maus in this sort of camp? I still don't understand what it is exactly.

some stuff that gets labelled as vaporwave or recommended on bandcamp i listen to and think i could do that myself. all smple stuff with a simple formula getting released on obscure labels out of philly and portland
but i think is vaporwave like modern art. just because i look at a few dots of paint on a blank canvas or listen to a vaporwave track that sounds like it was made in 20mins in garageband and think i could do that...but i didn't do it. someone else did.

pet project. see if its as easy as it appears to get a release on a vaporwave label.
like this track
sierously how long did that really take to make it doesnt do anything about from loop an 80s sax line and then crank up the delay at the end.

Heres the thing tho
Its not about how good your tune is, its about how many tumblrfag hipsters you have commenting on your soundcloud
