well. haha... if i may speak seriously for a few moments?i can appreciate the philosophy that the blog coverage has outlined in projects like my own in that they are meant to be a clear reflection of the human condition in this precise moment in history. blah blah blah i could talk about accelerationism and anti-capitalism and blah blah blah fukushima etc for hours but not because i'm a vaporwaver, i'm just really political like that. and perhaps fairly naive.but in strict regard to vaporwave, i think that kind of coverage encourages people to over-intellectualize it, which in turn makes the people behind it appear unjustifiably pretentious (and in turn, completely moronic) given the type of music we specialize in. how much context can you really give to a doctored loop of a jazz instrumental? truly guys, we are sample curators at best.we put into practice the art of commodifying art. new dreams ltd. was about taking "music" and returning it to its most primordial state, "sound".and because of that, i sometimes worry the net audience has, since dummy and tinymixtapes brought us up, been given the idea that internet club and myself, for example, truly believe that our eccojams were in some way "transcendental". perhaps it does transcend music. but it only does so because it is bred from samples so heavily commodified that it becomes, in itself, non-music. so you can view it as forward thinking, or just as easily, taking the piss. so i think it's slightly disrespectful to electronic music when vaporwave is given serious regard. perhaps vaporwave's legacy really will be decided by its audience. it's hard to imagine what 2013 will be like.*continued*
