I've wondered while following your channel for a few years how you make distinct sounds from across so many artists. Not just a promoter, you put them together into great mixes.

Loving these videos! ❤

th-cam.com/video/PMxMkqS7Vhc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ZbiwJpPYtZv53sg7 one of my tracks, if you wanna check it 🎵

Great video! Ive been enjoying your mixes for years!

Chillwave is kinda obscure but legit wonderful e.g. Vaporwave :)

Hey there! I’ve loved your playlists for years! They were an important part of studying during my undergraduate program. Glad to see you’re branching out, I can’t wait to learn more!

I don't care if Chillwave becames mainstream. While you like is enough.

Been a while since we saw a history upload from you and its well worth the wait! Always enjoy the well researched content you put up. Thank you for all you do!

I'm a huge fan of your compilations!!! You inspired me to record some tunes!!

I love your videos!

Wait... Soul is a human and not a talking bulbasaur? One thing I love about Hello, Meteor is many of its records are set in a alternate timeline where the space race started during the 19th century. As a steampunk fan, it's a wonderful idea (except in that timeline, people had to colonize other planets because the participating countries in the Great War used nuclear weapons as conventional weapons, making Earth a wasteland).

Ayeee a face reveal ! That’s for the upload keep doing your thing !!

Good stuff.

Oh yeah! I'd love to see this for synth and vapor. Especially going into more depth. I got into this stuff during the lockdowns. It's so overwhelming, I'm 100% that noob guy from the meme.

There is a song in the L O N G N I G H T S mix that Aesthenic uploaded many years ago called Looking Back Once More by L.D.C.N. Was one of my favorite ambient tunes, but I never could find anything else by that creator.

Hearing you name off and then me knowing every one of those producers you listed after 6:29 was one of the most rewarding feelings I've had in months. I don't know a single other person in real life who likes this genre as much as I do. God knows I've tried to get people interested.

Wow, I didn’t know resonance was 10 years old! I love chillwave, nice video

Love it 🫶 You rock 🦄

Whoah… you’re one person!!! Thank you for the incredible channel. Some of the songs here are so soothing or condoling

Awesome video - I hope there are more of these along with the dope mixes!

soulsearchanddestroy face reveal?!?!?!? sick video! chillwave is my fave genre i'd love for an even more in depth version of this video

I’ve found so many artists (including the ones you mention in the video) through your channel! What a great video to go with all your mixes. Really well-made and great to have such a detailed overview of the genre so far.

Great vid and one of my favorite genres :3 thank you for uploading!

My formative years were the 80s and 90s. Chillwave, to me, is false nostalgia (mixed with a little truth) and some wishful fantasy of living in those days. We take our childhood memories and turn up the intensity and emotion by +10, and you have this music genre. And I am absolutely addicted.

I love your channels and this is an excellent video. I agree with your points about vocal tracks but I think we should separate vocal vaporwave from non-vocal because I personally will always prefer vaporwave with no vocals or very little vocals that are distorted. It’s just personal taste. I prefer the mysterious sound. ❤

Awesome video! I never knew that the Darien Shields Music video at the end even existed. Also, I recognize you from Flamingo Fest! Keep the videos coming ! Top notch

ROFL! I didn't know much about you, only listened to your playlists like a thousand times. Now I see your face and I'm thinking of the scene where Neo meets Trinity. "I'm sorry, I just thought you were a guy." "Most guys do." Thank you for your work, it's nice to have music to listen to that doesn't have some agenda behind it.

In my opinion, Vaporwave transformed from a genre into a super-genre where every type, from classic to Future Funk and VHS Pop, to the new Barber Beats genre are covered under the umbrella of Vaporwave. Good to see that it's still going.

Hey, this is c r y s t a l 日本. I'm actually trying to change up my sound, so maybe my next album will be all originals. I can't sing with shit, though, so I'll have to hire someone for that.

Absolutely loved this video. Just wanted to say, there's been original composition Vaporwave from the early days (and even proto-vapor). Fatima Al Qadiri's "genre specific xperience" and James Ferraro's "Farside Virtual". Later people like Vektroid, Golden Living Room, Skeleton Lipstick,and a few others did original compositions too. There was an ironic-hipster joke that it's "slowed down 80s tunes" around 2014 onwards, but I think that joke got taken hyper literally, and for some people it's meant that Vaporwave is a synonym for slowed & reverbed (and memes). To my eyes and ears, it's always been way broader than that. It's an interesting rabbit hole. For me it's an online appropriation art movement, that has some eerie parallels to The Situationist, Ad Busters/ Culture Jamming, some Feminist /LGBT punk, and even to Andy Warhol, Richard Prince, Jeff Knoons (not a fan of Koons but the similarities are undeniable) visual arts people. But it's references are much more modern and unlike what came before, the online component makes it different, and it seems a lot more audiovisual than most music genres. Major musical influences I pick up on are Wendy Carlos, John Oswald, Negativland, DJ Screw, Boards of Canada, and Burial (more for the UK crowd). Really glad a channel like this exists, and happy travels! 😁

I love vaperwave

This was such a great video thanks so much for including my music and videos means alot can't wait to dance with you again in the future! Love these videos can't wait for the next drop! 😎👍✨

Tourist

Everything about this is wrong and against the original ideal of vaporwave

AMAZING WORK SSD !! THANKS 4 THIS !! i always wanted to see a video about this niche topic that it's vaporwave with vocals, vapor pop ?? or how we used to call back in the day V A P O R W A V E 2 it was an interesting journey for sure, again thank you so much for making me part of the video 🤗 THE BEST OF LUCK with ur new channel and content <3

OMG YESSSSSS

Hell yes! So glad to see someone talking about what's evolved in the genre but still connecting it to the past- HUGE PROPS!!

Vaporwave is NOT dead!!!

God I miss GTA Vice City, spent so many nights playing that.

Our wound of nostalgia forever becoming the elixir for tomorrow’s kids

The reveal of the person behind the channel I’ve been listening to for years. 🤯

Love it! Just the kind of stuff I was hoping to get on this channel.
