Vaporwave Music Reviews

Living Without You is the 3rd full length album by Vaporwave/Experimental artist Cosmic Sans愛. This is their first album on their new label, hypersleep sessions. Living Without You is described by the artist as: "The cosmic loss of the other half of a soul." As crazy as a description like that sounds, Cosmic Sans愛 almost delivers on this grandiose promise. Throughout this album I will be using "The Man" as a description of the main character in the story told by this album. The track...

Hello Vaporwave lovers, welcome to a review of the new 天気予報 (AKA Asutenki) album, Sentimental Transmission. 天気予報 is a prominent Signalwave/Vaporwave artist who is known for their large discography. Their whole discography works as a time stamp for a TV broadcast, each album signifying a different time. This album fills the time slot of 9 PM to 5 AM, making this album an experience you would only have during a sleepless night. Listening to this album as a whole, you can either experience...

retromogen342 This review first appeared on sunbleach.net (a now abandoned vaporwave news site) NiNtEn6z4 If a major conceptual component of vaporwave is hyper-realism, then REDEFINING THE WORKPLACE is one of its greatest practitioners. Released in January 2012, Robin Burnett's sixth album as INTERNET CLUB elicits the perfectly sterile and sterilly perfect office environment of enterprise millennialism in seventy-five minutes. Here, the grass is the same green, the lights are the same...

Hey Agora Road travelers! Today i'm going to review Donor Lens- Midnight Store Album which will have a physical release of vinyl, cassette, mini disc and also a playable ZX Spectrum NEXT SD card on July 31st. I have listened to Donor Lens in the past and have even featured "Still On The Lime" by Wichita LimeWire (One half of the Donor Lens duo), which you can view here. Donor Lens have described this album as "The music portrays an increasingly hazy evening, punctuated by return trips to...

Hey Everyone, This week has been pretty hectic, but a bit easier than the last. My reviews this week are a bit last minute, and I cobbled together what I could in the past day or so. Sorry if the reviews are worse than usual. As for the DreamProxy Zine, the issue should drop on Monday, maybe Wednesday at the latest. I hope everyone enjoys it! _____________________________________________________________________________ ジャーニー2：最初のＥｔｈｅｒｅａｌモール！by エーテルMALLS View...

Hey Everyone, Sorry for the super late article! A lot has been going on in my life, not all of it good, so I struggled to get this week's reviews together. I know some people reached out to have their music reviewed, and I know I probably ignored your message and I would like to apologize. If you want your music reviewed next week, please send me another pm here or email me at lain.of.the.net@gmail.com. Also if you have a something to submit to the august issue of Dreamproxy I am still...

If you are interested in contributing something to the Dreamproxy zine please shoot me a pm here, contract my at @netdenizenlain on twitter or instagram, or email me at lain.of.the.net@gmail.com. I'm going to be starting work on some of the articles soon, so if you have anything you want to contribute please let me know soon so I can put it in...

Hey everyone, Last weeks review seemed to be relatively well received, so i think I will be continuing to do reviews in the following order for each 4 week period; Artist Spotlight, New Music Review, New Music Review, New Music Review. If I come up with other reviews or content I might change it up though. I was thinking of maybe doing a subgenre primer in place of a new music review, but I might have to workshop that idea a bit more because that would require a lot more work than I am...

Hey everyone, The spotlight I did last week was quite a daunting task so I decided I'd try something different this week. Instead of doing a spotlight (which I'll probably try again at the beginning of next month) I figured I'd review 5 new albums this week. I hope you enjoy the reviews. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Drawings Carved Into The Clouds by Drawings Carved Into The Clouds View...

Hey Everyone, I figured I'd try something here and spotlight a vaporwave artist (and their current discography) for everyone's listening pleasure. If you like what I did in this post please let me know and I'll do another next week. You can even drop me an artist to look into if you'd like _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Artist Spotlight: Chinese Hackers Chinese Hacker is a post-vaporwave side project of the artists behind The...
