Announcement I made a directory of original SAMPLE FREE vaporwave music, help me expand it!
Today I bring you a new vaporwave project that I've been working on for a while, inspired by the Nu Guide which just turned 10 years old... Introducing DOVW; an online directory of completely original, sample-free vaporwave. Yes, that's right. I'm talking about vaporwave music that was produced without using any samples whatsoever! For example:
- A slushwave album made from completely original songs that were slowed down, cut up, and reverbed.
- A broken transmission album combining recorded vocals and bitcrushed instrumentals to create a "homegrown" radio signal.
- A late night lo-fi album produced using vintage synthesizers and mastered to sound like an old cassette tape.
I have gathered over 100 albums for this project and I want you 🫵 to give me more albums to add! Leave a comment below with your music recommendations (self promo OK) or fill this form if you don't have a reddit account.

Music My First Vaporwave Album!
Hi everyone! I've posted here a few times. I'm happy to finally announce that I've released my first full length vaporwave album! Today is also my birthday so I decided to take the chance and post my project on the same day. I hope you all enjoy it!
I took so much time and put in a lot of effort for this release. I started working on it in May of this year and just finished it all last night. Thank you to who sees this, I love you all.

Music New Vaporwave label in town, we’d love to hear from you! [Vision Market]
LISTEN:
Let’s keep this on the shorter end. Vision Market is a new label operated by a few people behind the scenes. Our first album is out now with two CD editions. Give it a listen, I think you’ll be impressed. We have some albums we think you’ll also like lined up for the following weeks and months as well.
We strive for no less quality than anything you’d see on the biggies— Geometric Lullaby, Business Casual, No Problema, etc. That said, the operational costs to jumpstart a label like that require a little help. Any support at all towards our first release would be greatly appreciated, and allow us to put out more albums you’ll love in the future. The purchase of a CD will put you in a small raffle for a free copy of our next release.
NOW, we want to ask you: what albums or artists do you want to see get a CD release? We can’t make promises, but we’ll try our hardest.

Question Help me identify this, please!
I listened to this album four years ago. It's called Ghost Broadcast , by Local News. From what I found out, local news is in alias of the artist Infinity Frequencies, who I'm sure you're most all familiar with. The album is basically a mishmash of music from tV and movies, things like bumpers and commercials. Anyway, now that I've explained what the album is, there's a specific track which is called Spring Update. The track uses what sounds to me like a scene from a movie and you can listen to it by playing the video. It has some orchestral strings and then there's a young boy saying "down" and then there's a dog growling. Ever since I first listened to this, I wanted to know what this comes from and whether it was a movie or a TV show or something else. Most everything on this album sounds like it came from the '90s or '80s or possibly 2000s. If anybody has any idea, your would be much appreciated!

Discussion It’s gotten worse
Hi everyone,
Recently I made a post explaining that someone has been submitting my old releases for streaming distribution without my knowledge or consent.
This morning, I received an email from my actual distributor (Record Union) saying that the “real artist” is claiming copyright infringement on two current releases (There Must Have Been Moments and 本物のオリジナル、部三). This claim says that I am a fraud and that this person is the true owner of the music. It includes an email address that I have never used nor created.
The distributor says I have to reach out to the claimant myself to reach a resolution, otherwise if nothing happens they will give the rights over to this other person.
I don’t know what to do. I am at a loss and deeply hurt that someone would do this. If anyone had any suggestions or help, I’d appreciate it.
Yes, I have emailed this person. So we will see.

Your text here I wish PepsiCo didn’t C&D Skylar Spence
And instead used the fact his name was Saint Pepsi as the basis for an advertising campaign
Like its understandable PepsiCo didnt want their flagship name associated with an artist, from their view they have no clue what Skylar is like as a person
But they could’ve played it up a bit. Maybe have a online ad campaign to find a new name to replace Saint Pepsi while licensing his music in a few ads
Gives him a few extra dollars, gets his name out to a wider audience, makes Future Funk more popular, and we get Private Caller or Have Faith in an actual Pepsi commercial
