This vaporwave. But we aren't having nostalgia for the good past. We are having nostalgia for the bad future, a world we don't even know yet. Its a common fear to be afraid of the unknown. So you recognize all the darkness in these tracks and the way ad culture has corrupted everything. Its a future we could see, don't really think of it much, but its really reasonable and makes total sense in the long run.

Signalwave. The subgenre that destroys the concept of celebrating nostalgia. It is our own memories laid bare for what they actually are. The human memory is an imperfect mechanism, and here the entire genre is laser-focused on critiquing the idea of fond memories through consumerism. It can range from making a small, uncomfortable little nag in your head. Something insidious about staying up into the hours of the morning watching infomercials preach their message of a convenience-centered life. All with a money-back guarantee, if only you call within that specific hour. All it costs is your humanity to live in this perfect, spendable world. The other half is a nightmare of slowed-down commercials clashing together, as if wandering around inside of a broken electronic store that hasn't seen daylight in over thirty years. You scrounge through the busted technology, only to find VHS tapes still frantically repeating their message of consumerism, only for its pitch to be so low that it becomes almost inhuman. It puts you on edge to even have ears at this point, but you can't stop. You HAVE to listen at this point, just to ask "why" in this musical embodiment of entropy. And here, this is what Signalwave truly is: entropy. Decay. The natural decomposition of technology. Even as it slowly becomes a gurgle of noises and transmissions, we still market it and put it up for us to listen. We as consumers will even listen to the dying sounds of our technology and buy it. Just to feel something human as our idea of a perfect future fades as we age. Why do we do it though? Perhaps it's the modern equivalence of a dirge. A somber look to the past finally dying off so we can move on with our lives. Perhaps we're eager to get just that next hit of nostalgia, even if it takes us to darker conclusions of what we've accepted as a culture. As for albums, well our old friends at Nightlight Tapes have a wide selection of Signalwave and lo-fi albums that fit that need. However, we'll need to go through some lesser-known labels if we want to get that sound of computer decay. The experimental group of Æscape Sounds has a few albums that distort sampled commercial samples into a collage of something wholly otherworldly. Others like Canadian label Adhesive sounds create that sticky, dreamy atmosphere of repetitive transmissions that send you into the remains of nostalgia left behind in your brain. Yet there are further albums back in time under the sound of 'experimental' that paved the way for this genre for the internet. I'll leave that rabbit hole for you to traverse, beloved listeners. And with that, I thank you for your time. It is time for you to return to your ordinary day-to-day. Just remember, keep an ear out if there is always a signal. It may lead you to what you are looking for...

Very awesome! This genres like mallsoft and signalwave inspired me to write a vaporwave sort of novel about this distopian/utopian city where sadness is forbidden and people are mentally prisoners in it because they have been for ages taught that there was nothing beyond the hills. But nobody knows that the hills are holograms of this sort of dome in the middle of the desert. Planet earth was almost destroyed by nuclear weapons, and people live in this city since 1987, and things got stuck in that age but technology got forward. So there is this sci-fi city that has mid 80's aesthetic, actually early 90's.

I saw on Reddit someone make their own edit of Dream Sequins where it’s “just the highlights”. It cuts out about fifty minutes of material and makes the whole thing sound completely uneven. This is all about the flow and I cannot imagine cutting one second from it. The best example of how the edit is to its detriment is starting immediately with “Keep This”. Without those two minutes of atmospheric build-up, it makes the sudden drum appearance not just sudden but very jarring. It should be a pay-off, not an instant (ehem) hit.

It's been a useful fount of artistic commentary up until say, the late-2000s, when the relevance of most of those sources wore out (25 years make a difference, trust me). It's heartening to see a new generation synthesize its own ambient influences and cues and sources this way, even if it 'isn't for me'. I subbed anyway. Nice work!!

Hey Pad, amazing video as always!! I was just wondering if you’d ever consider doing a review of the Computer Trilogy by Infinity Frequencies? Those are some of my favorite vaporwave albums of all time, and I’d love to hear your take on them. Anyway, thanks for the great vid! :D

Hey man I love the video, just a small suggestion, maybe add small samples or examples of songs while you talk about them, you do a really good job of describing them but it would be great if you could include small snippets of them too :)
@PadChennington5 жыл бұрын
I feel ya! I usually just keep the videos completely barren of the music im discussing so viewers would hopefully make their way to the artist's pages and check em out! also just in case of copyright and the state of youtube these days, I doubt any of the artists I discuss would strike me but who knows how youtube works these days anymore with all these crazy stories of channels just getting wiped out. better safe than sorry in my opinion, id be crushed if I ever lose this channel lol took me over a year to just get monetized!

Vaporwave,Utopian virtual,Signal wave Is the music genre where the music allows Us to control it's Rhythum and Choreography and be the director of the infinite immaculate simulations it gives us, helps us create a movie of emotions that not only we can imagine, but also feel..

Sure Pad, Let me just preface by saying, don`t expect to find any carboncopy Signalwave - I live far from any scene and usually spend too much tie by myself trying to figure out what I can make that would sound like, unique - I just loved seeing there are others out there with a direction, and I am going to utilize that in my upcoming release(s), which still is maybe a little over a month away Ok, if it let me post links here then? This is like a "triptych" soundcloud.com/orgon-solo/arkon-imploder Also on my mixcloud you could check out my AnKoar Psychill firepit mix or the five year old predecessor called Arkon Satelites

@@PadChennington start with "a few old tunes" which is a compilation of their first experiments and you can find some true pearls in there.

wow, this video made me understand broken transmission even more the usual. now that I think about it, new deluxe life was actually my introduction to broken transmission. Then on to other awesome albums like the blast to the past telenights and the outstanding album dream sequins. Well done As for my recommendation I would personally recommend checking out this artist called 维新噩梦工厂 (revolutionary nightmare factory) a Chinese broken transmission artists. P.S. I got dream sequins on vinyl and it's amazing.
