love the videos man!
spotify preferably
S O O T H E M Y D E P R S S I O N
this vapr list deserves a sequel
o n e d a y :)
HOLY SHIT
Didnt expect you lot here
Wow
Bugyourparents!!!!
I'M A VAPORWAVE KILLAH
Thanks Pad
Thank you brotha! Dying to have you back on the channel :)
Corp, I love your music!!!!!
Literally listening to your Corporate Mixtape as I was scrolling down the comments.
Love your music dude!
Corp, I listen to news at 11 every day at school, it really helps me work and keeps me awake in the mornings, thank you so much for this album! Seriously! I get work done because of you!
Thank God for Pad Chennington and Vaporwave
What I’m quickly learning is that Spotify has almost NONE of this
You gotta go on Bandcamp man.
Wait until you see (just a little bit) more obscure releases, or pretty much anything else :D
this is about 10 minutes long altogether, and it'll be on spotify and all the other stuff soon, this is slightly more narrative-based but what i have planned is even more narratve based then this, im keen to know what you think
my favourite track on this release is number 5"loom"
:) antiinverse.bandcamp.com/album/loom
That's always been the charm of vaporwave for me. Also Spuck Fotify.
Spotify doesnt have bone for underground music. Bandcamp does.
The real way to enjoy vapor wave music
Take a shower, start with hot water, move into cold water, then back to hot water. Put on some comfy clothes after.
Get some green tea. Preferably Arizona brand, but any kind will work. It’s gotta be cold tho, and make sure it has honey in it. Mix it into it, obviously. Cold Filtered, or mineral water works too.
Be tired, like PRETTY tiered.
Lay down on any of these;
•Yoga mat on a hardwood floor
•Couch
•Bed
•Reclining gaming chair
Light a candle, scented, obviously.
If you have it, put a humidifier next to you. Steam makes you feel really fucking good.
If you have them, turn your LED lights to either dark blue, cyan, pink, or purple.
Then, lay down, play the music, sip your vibe juice, and just vibe out.
I’ve been needing this. Pretty new to the genre and have no idea where to start.
glad to have ya aboard :) happy listening!
Me too :D
In a perfect world, you would find this for every genre.
me too
Oh man, WINDOWS96-0nehundredmornings
Luxuryelite-world class-- then cruise around for mixes kurdbada makes great mixes, soundstation, electronic gems, and look through the suggestions when playing new songs....it all unfolds as you search
I'm sorry but floral shoppe and late night delight will always be my favourite vaporwave albums of all time
totally understandable, trademark classics!
@@PadChennington love your videos man, keep it up!
God. This entire list is everything I could have asked for on the summer where I learned more about music than I did for years in class. All to experience a genre about broken nostalgia and piecing it back together to create art. Something tells me this is special~
It's been such a good ride for however brief I have known you, Pad. You're a Scholar of the Softcore Sound. The Vizier of Vaporwave. You really do just appreciate this genre for the olden noises it brings to a more modern sound, or for folks that just want their past to come back.
Favorite albums...god i don't know where to start. QuadratoX's 1995 is pretty damn high for its concept and execution...Then there's stuff by Polygon Dream with Zeldawave...Maybe more classic stuff like Dragonball Wave to really hit the 90's nostalgia button. Screw it, I'll make a list regardless. Too many damn good albums to say.
By the way, I DO have a Crystal Pepsi right in my hands and next to my tapes. Things you find in convenience stores.
Curious Hero one thing I really like about vaporwave is the hopelessness that accompanies it. My favorite album has to be either Death's dynamic shroud or Hit Vibes.
I can tell you had fun using those Pokemon gen 3 game sound effects.
Yeah ikr
Being a bandcamp centric collector, I can say these 107 branch out into just about everything on bandcamp within 3 mouseclicks on the recommended's below the albums in question. Fantastic work Pad! These are solid, and should be in any collection, digital or physical. Cheers!
thank you my dude :) CHEERS RIGHT BACK ATYA!
1:00 "From essential classics to underrated gems"
Both sound like they'd make good names for Vaporwave albums.
Hologram Plaza, Palm Mall, and "Home" will be the top, in my own opinion.
セホホケ
This list wouldn't have been complete without REDEFINING THE WORKPLACE; this album is way above everything else within the vapor spectrum. Great job with the list anyhow!
Thank you! And yes, REDEFINING THE WORPLACE is indeed one of le best!
how convient that all of those are on youtube in their full length!
i am actually going through everything you listed and add it to my playlist to listen to overtime!
Good list, the only thing I don’t like is that News at 11 isn’t on here
thanks! already had a ton of corp in there, hard to not include em all!
my to-listen list is about to get a whole lot bigger... thanks for making this pad!
No problem Chris hope ya enjoyed it!
Man I love the amount of effort that has gone into this video! Absolutely killer list narrated so well as always. Keep up the good work, hope my contribution helps... you deserve it :) !!!
Thank you so much! And yes it does, so very much. Cant thank you enough brotha. I never asked you, whats your favorite album?
Such a difficult question but the one that really caught my attention was Deaths Dynamic Shroud.wmv - I'll try living like this. It was just something else!
This dude is so into vaporwave he made this video... that is heavy.
just ur friendly neighborhood a e s t h e t i c
You posted this exactly when it hit 00:00, nice timing
The one take away I got from this video is that I'm super jealous of your vaporwave vinyl collection.
you’re lowkey very talented at describing a single song perfect to what it is. You could write a really good book.
I think some albums that could be added here are:
Chessmaster - I Am Chesumasuta
HKE - Dragon Soul
Sangam - Mount To Nothing
Cocainejesus - Adult
Love Potion - XXX
Echochamber - I’m real I’m here
Telepath & Nmesh - Path to Lost Eden
Giant Claw - Dark Web
Deaths Dynamic Shroud - Derelict
all great, great pics.. may make a part.2 in the future :) stay tuned!
Listening to the full list during quarantine. Perfect thing to kill the boredom.
Way to start off with 3 ABSOLUTE bangers! Had me hooked in, I see what you did there.
a whole channel all about vaporwave! i love this kind of content, you deserve way more subs. thanks putting this video together, i’m already excited to jam out to these
thanks so much! welcome to the channel my dude :)
Watching this 5 years late but so glad to see you shout out Heavy Black Heart, probably my favourite vapour album of all time but always overlooked.
I've only listened to 20 of these albums and many have been one my list for some time now. I really need to step my vapor game up thanks pad, and nice use of Barbwalters(got Reconnect on tape).
Awesome! Reconnect is a banger....happy listening!
I really would have included Soft Channel, but this was a solid list.
I might make a part 2 sometime in the future :) and yes, soft channel is a definite rock!
So cool how there is so much variety even within vaporwave!
The definitive list I've been looking forward to. Another great video!
thank you :) happy listening! whats your favorite album?!
@@PadChennington It's gonna have to be either News at 11, or A Million Miles Away. I'm still somewhat new to the genre and subgenres, so I still have tons of music to catch up on. This list definitely helps!
Windows 96 albums are underrated.
'Nematophy' and, 'Enchanted Instrumentals and Whispers' are best after listening to 'One Hundred Mornings'.
Same with 'Machintosh Updated Floral Experience'
After finishing 'Floral Shoppe'.
'Floor Baba Game Wave' is pretty good.
Windows 96 albums are absolutely great but PLEASE
go listen to Gudang - Nostalgi Gaius
It’s him as well ;)
Thanks for making this video and introducing me to new Vaporwave I otherwise would have never been able to discover before.
No problem! Glad to have you in the fam!
Love the video. For me it's gotta be Computer Death by Infinity Frequencies. It left Impression on the first listen,and from that point on, it's my favourite without a doubt.
ahhh yes yes. and thank you!
happy you put internet club's "liberated from the world" one of my favorite albums by far!
a true, glitchy classic!
Under two palms-Under two palms, Whitewoods-spaceship earth, 猫 シ Corp.-school days.
those are just a few of my favorites.
you cop the whitewoods vinyl?
@@PadChennington I got it within 2.3 seconds of it being released
Sry, Im late but my favourite vaporwave album is Chuck Person’s Eccojams Vol. 1. And btw you are the best vaporwave channel.
AND YOU ARE MY FAVORITE VAPORWAVE CHANNEL
righteous list man, decided too track down these albums and put them on my phone for the occasional listen/delight or annoy my friends/marijuana times. Im at track 41 and I think i nabbed about 30 additional albums, going back down the rabbit whole I feel in around 2014 - 2015 is nostalgic and emotional, it was a time when I discovered a deeper understanding and love for music and artists. I hope this video inspires others to fall in love with vapor music all over again or maybe convince some stubborn stewwies too look beyond floral shoppe and mac tonight memes
awesome dude..and yep thats the goal! an opportunity to discover some music ya might like, from artists who deserve the attention....cheers and happy listening :)
I enjoyed the video overall, but felt that it would have been more appropriate to title this "personal favorites" instead. Very solid list here, but like many others have already said, the repeated artists and more-of-the-same type albums could have been replaced by more revolutionary or important works like HELLCOM's Energy111 or Sea of Dogs' Storm Memories.
I've been working on the adaptation of Nmesh's Dream Sequins over the summer and I've been spending time outside of the editing room trying to parse through what albums and events have mutated the genre over time. To that end, I've been compiling notes for a series that covers vaporwave through the years to observe those changes. The passion that goes into your work is very inspiring and despite some differences in opinion, you do a wonderful job of capturing the essence and spirit of what makes this art movement tick. And in a fashion that everyone can easily understand.
Good stuff, sir!
thank you for the well put and detailed comment! So I would've liked to do a personal one as well, however I feel doing so would've caused people to skip right to like the top 10 and omit all the other solid choices in the list. but hey, maybe one day ill make a Pad's Favorite 10 Vaporwave Albums video! :)
i really needed this video in 2016. better late than never :)
;)
My favs list (will be updated)
-Mana Pool
-Building A Better World
-Sunday Television
-Hirath
-News at 11 (I love catcorp)
-Hit Vibes
-Late night delight
"Camino 84 - Yacht Rock Breaks" and "2 8 1 4 - 新しい日の誕生 / Birth of a New Day" are by far one of my favorite vaporwave albums of all time. "NewEraDreaming - The End of an Odyssey" is also pretty good, though i wouldn't say its ground breaking or anything. Its just a really nice atmospheric album by my own standards.
Yacht Rock Breaks is a phenomenal album 👍👍
i'm really glad that vw folks like Yacht Rock Breaks but it's not really a vaporwave album
I'm still taking baby steps into Vaporwave (yeah, I know I'm late), but so far my favorite album is 100 mornings
Ay luca, win96 is a great place to start.. killer albums!
@@PadChennington Loving your vids btw, already subscribed!
thanks so much :) welcome to the family!
it;s never too late to join the wavvee
i love 100 mornings too by the way!! so nostalgia
So many choices...
I think I’m overwhelmed with options.
take it s l o w w w w w
Video : VAPORWAVE
First picture in video : OUTRUN
I knew you'd have some good suggestions when this video started with my favorite album, Hologram Plaza. Thanks for turning me on to some new music.
eyeliner is from my home town wellgton i did meet him once at a a show he was nice
Awesome list! Loved it and will look most of these up, but DEFINITELY missing vcr.classique to name at least one artist. His album "exotics" is so fucking amazing.
Cool list for welcoming new listeners definately! Nice choises Pad!
I think many other fellows would like to see in further videos more lists because we all know how much underrated stuff flows without a chance )))
100%! Lots of artists that did not make the list that still deserve a top spot and to be recognized, ill try to address as many as I can !
I have to add "visualdesign '97" and "Atlantic Memories" by vcr-classique. On the latter, "Waves Over The Rainbow" is mindblowing.
I just keep coming back to this video whenever I wanna try a new album and I love every single one I’ve listen to so far. Great recommendations Pad!
Nothing from 18 Karat Affair?
Adult Contemporary is everything
Nah, no any Hwae sa Auto or any of my albums - too many cool things by Tele, Corp and HKE with Vektroid been released to close the eyes on the other stuff XDD I guess this list is more like overrated albums
part 2, one day :)
*carat
Im sorry
Thank you! I’ve been wanting to get into vapor wave to see what everyone else’s seeing and find my nitch
Another great video pad, I was so looking forward to this!
why is nobody talking about the fact that there are sounds from Pokemon games in this video
I’ll Defenitly have to check these out over the winter break!
4 years later still a banger
Can't thank you enough, Pad. Keep it up!
No no no Vanan thank you! Happy you enjoyed the video!
PowerPC ME : Kmart 1989-1992 Is a fave of mine, great stuff. Your video got me a lot of new good stuff to zone to, your vid style also is easy listening 👍🏻
My man Vipa the greatest on this list. 107 Greatest Viperwave tracks you should kno
My man dropped the next great album, They Hate Me Cuz I'm Vaporwave. Ha haaaaaaaaaa
Glad to see Death's dynamic shroud, Christtt and Haircuts for men in the list, really good stuff.
Thank you :) and also you made me really hungry for calamari now...
My favorite albums are
1: Floral shope
2:Blank Banshee 0
3: Blank Banshee 1
Wow man, this was a real treat. Thank you so much for all the time you invested in making this for the community. I think I can safely speak for all of us when I say you're doing the best job at discussing, promoting, and enriching the vaporwave "scene".
Don't let up brother, your channel means so much to so many people (myself included, I mean Hell I made a Patreon solely just to support you! Lol). ❤💙💚💙❤
P.s. Jonathan Charles Lewis is me, ConkyJoe89. So you can remove the Jonathan name from your list of Patrons, and leave the ConkyJoe89 name 👍👍👍
I KNEW IT I ALREADY HAD YA IN THE CREDITS LOL!!! I was literally adding your name and I was like wait I think im doing something wrong lolol..
but thank you so much man, seriously means a lot to me. I might print this comment and keep it by my desk while I work, for real dude thank you so much.
@@PadChennington Of course brother! I really mean everything I said, your vid drops are one of the highlights of my week, and you're getting better and better btw. The passion you have is obvious and comes through in the final product. I'll always support someone who is passionate about the same things as myself, and through that passion you enrich the experience on our end so it comes full circle. Keep it goin man 👍👍👍
Best video ever man!! Always go here when I wanna be inspired. Big hug from 🇦🇷, love your videos.
dude thanks so much!!!!! means a lot!
You reignite my love for the genre everytime you post
:) Thank you, glad to hear! Whats your fav album?
Pad Chennington dude there's a few; floral shoppe, ntsc memories, late night delight, I'll try living like this & laserdisc visions
I really needed this, its hard to find vaporwave
It’s not really that hard to find vaporwave. Go to bandcamp > discover > electronic > vaporwave. There is thousands of albums to listen to.
Check out the vaporwave essentials guide
@@chewyflametv6683 No, there must be way too much trash
Vapor memory
Thank you soo much for this! ever since i found this video i've been listening to each album 1 by 1 and enjoying everything that i've heard soo far! I'm on #9 atm but i can't wait what's in store for the rest of the albums i'll be listening to! My love for Vaporwave has been revived and i'm enjoying every second of it. Thank you soo much Pad Chennington!
Wish DDS’s RPG album would have gotten a spot. It had some pretty amazing vibes
DDS, can never get enough of em!
my personal favorite is death dynamic shrouds ill try living like this with James Ferraro's far side virtual as a close second
Glad to see my personal favorite albums (especially from death's dynamic shroud, luxury elite, and VAPERROR) made it on this list!! Also I love the new editing style of your video. Keep up the good work, Pad!! Much love
Thank you! Yes, I really wanted to step it up a notch with this video. spent a lot of time on it and im super proud of it, thank you for the comment! Whats your favorite album of all time? love to hear what everyone thinks
Pad Chennington Well, thats the hard part, lol 😂. There are many favorites in the genre that I generally love, no matter how big or small the artist is.
Anyways, as much as I want to say Saint Pepsi's "Hit Vibes" being my all-time fav. (Especially since, it really reminds me of the times where my mother used to be around. Also that, when I was younger, for the most part I somewhat did grew up listening to funk music from the 70s, and pop classics from the 80s with my mother.) But everyone, even outside of the community knows that album is an underground classic.
However, a very personal album of mine--which is an all-time favorite and underrated classic to genre. It would be death's dynamic shroud's "DERELICTメガタワー". Surprisingly, it didnt made to this list at all! It's such an emotional rollercoaster, its absolutely amazing, psecially for an experimental artist like dds! Oddly enough, I'm not a big guy on experimental music that much. But, its something about that album that keeps haunting back to me. It also uses A LOT of video game samples to create this nostalgic, yet eerie, experience. Pad, I cannot stress enough of how much I love that album dearly, really underrated in my book.
I highly, HIGHLY, recommend you checking it out. (Or even do a review on it.) The downside about that album, its really long. There's over 80 tracks and its about 4 hours long. But dont let that sink into you, its really an amazing experience if you ask me. Anyways, cannot wait for the new uploads. Keep up the good work, Pad! 👍
Surprised to not see any EPs from Finlii or Winter Sleep .
Those releases are so good for the Winter ☃️
This video is everything I could have hoped for!!! You have an amazing taste in vaporwave, Pad.
Thank you Jose :) and thank you for being here since the beginnings of the channel! whats your favorite album of all time?
@@PadChennington It's really hard to pick one, but if I had to choose it would probably be I'll Try Living Like This or Y. 2089 .
Cat System Corp - News at 11 is the only one I am missing, a work of art
late to the party here. first and foremost thank you so much pad chennington for being the vaporguru that you are. been loving vaporwave for years now, sifting through its many diverse releases has been a trip. my favorite vaporwave album of all time would probably be DDS’ “I’ll Try Living Like This”, as it also is an all-time personal favorite.
Massive jungle and "a diverse pallet of sub-genres" is a good way to describe it and why this type of music can be so interesting. It's expanding for better or worse daily and it's easy to expect weekly output from small sub-genre labels. Vaporwave and its various subgenres supplies a seemingly endless wealth of novel sound experience.
It will probably play out at some point, but as someone who grew up on disco and punk I think the amount of creativity being shown in this type of music and its almost non-intentional disregard of traditional commercialism makes it a significant event in music.
Anyway, the creativity in all the various "waves" is through the roof!
I gotta mix tape of some well known and more obscure artists on Soundclud called "Post Intrawave Plundersoft"
Damn Pad, tyvm for all these. I discovered Vaporwave by chance a couple years ago and I LOVE it, it's opened the door to much more too. And this list widens the scope as well, thanks for that this world got a bit better!
You are supreme bro! crafting and building a blueprint for all lost vaporwavers. 🌌 DYNAMIC.
Neo Cali has to be my favorite album! It's upbeat and joyful original music combined with Japanese commercials thrown in makes it feel like the perfect summer vacation with your friends skating together in L.A on a hot summer in 1987. Good stuff.
I had never seen a Vaporwave album out in the wild before I visited one of our local record stores. Looking through the Electronic section, way in the back of the final row of albums, well behind the artists starting with the letter 'Z' was Macintosh Plus' "Floral Shoppe". I couldn't believe it. I wasn't sure if the album was given the reprint treatment, but I bought it nevertheless. Due to being new and sealed, there was no indicator whether the vinyl was white or pink. To my pleasure, it was lovely bubblegum pink.
Hey, "yes were open" is my favourite album of all time! great minds...
ITS LIKE WE'RE BROTHERS :O
Thank you so much for this video- I just got into vaporwave music and this has been my listening guide! I've gotten through about a quarter of the albums so far and my personal favorites are You Are Already Dead, Sailorwave, 43°, and Late Night Delight. :)
Thanks for this list! Been looking to get more into Vaporwave and found this video through accident. A lot of these albums were on Spotify so now I have something to do while I travel to work.
Thank you soo much for this list! I finally finished it and I'm so glad to have gone through it all one album at a time. 💖 it was an amazing experience and now that I have a good variety of artists I follow, I'm going to listen to the rest of their discography and explore more vaporwave genres/artists on my own . Thanks allot Pad!
Hey Pad, love your channel and opinions and the way you compose your thoughts and share your inarguably vast love and passion for this subculture with us. I do have a request, although by no means a small one. Could you think about making a video about the sub genres of vaporwave? As many as you know or can think of, or maybe a video of your top (insert arbitrary number here) favorite and least favorite vaporwave sub genres and a brief explanation of their characteristics and aesthetic values? Thanks, short time fam but instant subscriber
I discovered Eyeliner buy now because of this video and now it's my favourite vaporwave album. Thanks Pad.
this video is so nostalgic for me…
Hey Pad, have you ever thought of doing a video on Vaporwave net labels? I've never really seen anyone do a comprehensive overview of the sources of Vaporwave and how these gems get distributed. From juggernauts like Business Casual and Dream Catalogue to Keats Collective, Illuminated Paths, Ailanthus Recordings to the classic Beer on the Rug or Fortune 500 (RIP) to some of the more obscure new up-and-coming labels like Seikomart. I think there's a lot of potential in telling the story of these monuments to net art and vaporwave history. And there's still so much new vaporwave being produced! While some say "vaporwave is dead" I like to think it's alive and well with all kinds of great stuff being released all the time. Just my two cents, not sure if you like recommendations or not lol but I've always wanted to see you cover this topic
Yes, I have! will definitely, definitely do one in the future...thank you for the well detailed comment!
my pleasure! love the content
Thanks so much awesome selection of albums!
Whitewoods - Spaceship Earth
The songs on that album were my introdyction to the genre. It changed my life.
Thanks Pyrocynical.
You can tell a ton of work went into this! HIRAETH by Corp, or Spaceship Earth by Whitewoods are my personal favorite vapor albums.
thank you Connor!!! did you cop the whitewoods vinyl?
The very minute it dropped, yeah! I told myself I wouldn't miss that release for the world.
Spectacular video. I'll be making my way through this list for the next month or two :O
Turtleman...first off I love the name. Second, happy to deliver you some sweet tunes for the future! Happy listening, let me know what your favorites are!
Love the sweet little shoutout to Corp
Yep just have 107 VAPOR WAVE TRACKS off the top of you head. Keep up the good work.
This list is so good, Pad
Great job, seriously
Where's Lemkuuja - Cheesecake+ tho?
Thank you! glad you enjoyed it :)
I'd say my favorite is Yes! We're Open, but it's so, so hard to pick, and now you've given me a lot more to listen to...
Also Midnight Radio Deluxe is SO good, I love it.
Ahha yes i've been waiting so long for this! right when i saw you uploaded this my audio went out. got it fixed finally. time to relax now. looks like i have more albums to listen to! ;)
Honestly the only thing that disappoints me is how many artists have multiple spots on this list. I feel like there are others who could have benefitted from it.
might do a part 2 one day! and I feel ya but personally I couldn't have like HIRAETH be on it and not Palm Mall Mars or same thing with certain telepath albums...some are too good to avoid! but im always trying to spread the word of these artists so ill definitely do more things like these in the future :)
@@PadChennington Thanks for hearin me out pad daddy.
I agree. The genre is progressive rather than resting in Supers.
Ey pad! Love to see more vaporwave videos! Keep up the good work🙏
Just need Sangam and this list would be perfect.
agreed! might make a part 2 in the future, with all the stuff that has come out since as well.
