it reminds me of the wig store that my mom always used to go to in downtown louisville. the people there were always so nice but they changed management and now they aren’t the best anymore. that was about 6 years ago and i’m wondering how their doing now
Hey Pad could you do a video on Sport3000‽ I love Signalwave and 3000s style seems to be my favorite with all the hiss and buzz in the background. I once referred to it as a journey through old AM radio. And by the way, Local 58's Show For Children just came on.
this is like listening to old music archives from the past that were reconstructed several centuries after a cataclysmic world war wiped out nearly all life and technology...but we're in the present, so this is from the future.
I feel exactly what you mean. This music has me feeling some sort of way. Like pulling emotions of your future self, after all is gone. YET its somewhat soothing
Reminds me of when we had no internet, and couldn't just type away our loneliness in our lonesome abode. Back then, when all you could do was stare at the static and drown yourself in thoughts that today you can alienate through overstimulation. Thank god for the internet. Who knows, without the internet, when would we be in this exact glorious moment?
its 1999, the CRT TV flickers in the earliest dark light of the morning, while whatever is on the TV plays quietly as to not wake anyone else up. i'm a small child, its raining a little outside. its all good, its all ok. life is simple, i can feel the signal
This sounds like how the lobby of a cheap little car dealership smells. This album gives me the visceral feeling of how 'unfinished/in development' would feel. I suppose it really does live up to its name. Hope to see you when the intermission is finished. Edit: I remembered the specific place I was thinking of that this album reminds me of. Its not a maintenance area, but rather, the lobby of a cheapy car dealership. Artifact was a great closer.
This kinda reminds me of the days when AM radio was enterely anonymous;speacially at late night, when you could not tell nor know what was the artist sounding at the moment. You had to follow the music and let it go. Tunning different stations just to check what was happening here and there. Is there ever going to be a full genre like that? One that retrieves all the sensations of past and forgotten radio afterhours? This one is close to that, but not fully. I want to see it evolve...
I felt this. I remember waiting in this giant hospital during my moms eye surgery and having to wait there for like 3 hours while they did stuff to her eye. the atmosphere was really off and by the time i saw her on the hospital bed again the sun was setting. i still remember flipping through all the magazines, in which none of the topics were interesting to 8 year old me and looking at the vending machines as i became vaguely hungry. it was a werid day and this comment just brought that memory back.
this makes me feel like im sitting in a house with nobody around, everything over-saturated and it's too warm. and when i look outside, there's nothing except hills. can't remember how you got there and where you came from. you have a feeling you'll never escape.
While someone found the broadcast samples, Here are most the names of the original tracks: SECAM: Michael Gore - Terms Of Endearment Eternal Intermission (first and second parts): Unknown Infovison (first part): One 2 Many - Downtown Infovision (second part): unknown Colorburst: Horizont - Wanting Satellite Artifact: Mickey - Es Bonito Estar De Vuelta
Haven’t seen it mentioned here, but Eternal Intermission alternates between a rising tension sort of music and a calmer sort of waltzy thing. Makes it sound like something is coming to get you, and the calmer music is a countdown until it gets you. The heavy distortion at the end signifies that you’re basically screwed.
i wrote a comment about it before but i want to make a game where ur trapped in some hotel liminal space and some cryptid is after u, and u call for help on ur phone but they have u on hold. this is the hold music that’d be playing
Came back to this album after a couple years. I can't quite put a finger on the feeling it leaves me but the gentle static in the background still holds me gently by the base of my skull. It's the sound of laying in bed after waking up, still teetering on the edge of a dream every time you close your eyes. The simple, warm loops and the fuzz give me a feeling of shelter that I can't quantify. It has a worrisome tone to it too. Returning to that dream as much as you can in the minutes before you wake up and it leaves you forever. I love this album. It's one of those pieces that grow with you no matter what position you're at in life; something you can hold onto in the fragile space between dreams and waking.
Eternal Intermission is the only song to ever make me experience genuine dread. The peaceful music, inevitably and infinitely interrupted by sudden breaks slowly wears you down in anticipation. The track is like 4 minutes long but it feels like 15
it makes me feel like i’m being tailed by someone in an empty hotel at 2 in the morning and i’m trying very hard to find an employee or a phone i can use
This is supposed to be a harsh critique of consumerism? I don't think we're listening to the same thing. I just hear my grandparent's old house on the hill, with the gigantic CRT stereo, Saturday afternoons at the little mall, catching movies because you liked the popcorn more than the movie, boring children's shows on Sunday mornings, parents passing out napping after lunch and playing quietly so you don't wake them, and hugs from mom.
I think that's the wrong way to look at it from both ends. Music tries to perform the ineffable. This is trying to capture the feeling of saying goodbye to everything (E T E R N A L). To reduce it to a political statement robs music.
But I mean when you really think about it, what does it say that this style of music mostly seen in informercials and corporate hold music is so connected to childhood memories? Like I completely agree with you that it's super calming, but I think you could argue it's a critique just on the basis that it's kind of morbid that this style of music is so soothing for us.
I keep coming back here to see if someone could identify the first song's sample. If liminal spaces were a song, it would be this. also Colorburst, my new favorite.
This is what the smell of your old library and its books sound like. Also maybe smoking a marlboro red inside a closed Kmart with empty shelves in 2003
You know that feeling where you're basically 'in shock' emotionally and know you should be feeling dread but just can't feel much of anything? It's not peace, not dread, just... dead. That's what this sounds like.
This is the best signalwave i've heard, the first track is my most favorite out of them all. Gives off that "watching the world end outside in a barricaded VHS Store" vibe
Tuning the radio on LW and MW on a summer night, catching short fragments of distant stations fading and being overwhelmed by Soviet transmissions or thunderstorms crackling... nostalgic. (Finland, 1980s)
my grandparents had a massive old catho-ray-transistor stereo the size of a fridge with "house speakers" if it was laying on its side, and if you turned the AM dial very very slowly this is what it sounded like; picking up bits and pieces of this and that being broadcast by the tiny local rural stations to the few dozen people that listened.
This reminds me of those old Religious cartoons that would play late at night when you wake up from a cold sweat of un belief of the world other than to think what time we have left on this small world we call out home
I had an idea for a part of a horror game where you're being chased by some backrooms cryptid, and you're trying to call for help on the phone and you're on hold waiting to get on the line with someone that can get you out. The whole gist is you have to survive for a certain amount of time while this eerie hold music plays. Eternal intermission is exactly what I imagined when it came to what the hold music would sound like
I have an idea eternal intermission is what plays when the monster is close to you and the heavy distortion at the end of the song is telling you that your screwed
Sport 3000, if you're reading this, I just wanted to thank your for making this album. This was my inspiration for producing my own album that touches upon similar themes as this XOXO
sport 3000 is one of the most under appreciated vaporwave artists of all time. The way he/she blends late night lofi and signalwave so that it feels calming yet disturbing is amazing. I bet Sport 3000’s aesthetic will be picked up by someone on tik tok and Sport 3000 will get the credit they deserve
@@Wiiplay123 I have a theory that they exist, But only as recordings from Televion broadcasts and Weather channel broadcasts by the artist. This is just a theory though.
@@Kodaigon72 If it's from a television or weather channel broadcast, it's usually from a stock music library. If we could figure out what broadcast it was recorded from, we might be able to find the original music.

This gives off that Chinese clothes store vibe, where the air is so moist and thick that you could literally cut it.

Yeah man the kind of music you could find playing in Chernobyl lol
This is calming, yet it gives off an unsettling vibe I can't quite explain
Your conciousness knows that the harsh reality we are currently in and there's no way back to these glorious old days.
Thats why.
It's the glimmer of light that makes you realize how dark it is.
It feels lonely. Just like old media used to be. Internet included. A very solitary experience.
it feels like the last remnant of something calming in a dying world
It's the static you edgy cucks
Eternal intermission sounds like there was a global emergency and no one came back to resume normal programming
This whole album is eerie but soothing nevertheless. I love it.
Reminds me of when we had no internet, and couldn't just type away our loneliness in our lonesome abode.

this album is the pinnacle of melancholy.
This gives the vibe of a company during the apocalypse telling people that things are gonna be okay when they obviously aren’t.
