>how to make it big as an internet ""music"' """"producer"""" in the 2010s>steal music made by people 1000 times more talented than you>cut only a small clip from it, slow it down and loop it for five minutes>slap a beat and a sidechain on it>instead of a lowlife with fetal alcohol syndrome who can only contribute to society by taking good art made by other, better people and shitting all over it you are now perceived as a historical figure in an "artistic movement" bravely lampooning "hypercapitalist nostalgia" and your name gets to be on wikipedia Why haven't we thrown these people into a volcano yet?
>>129969564It just sounds cool
>>129969564How many Negronis again?
Every night before bed I check my blood pressure. It's high. It's always high. It's from my constant thinking of the song "Jingle Bells". I keep yelling at the kids across the street>"The 1857 version of Jingle Bells is the only correct version!"
>>129969824This isn't about "correctness", it's about integrity.
>>129969853Should had taken them to court then if you want to preserve "integrity".
>>129969766This.I'm so sorry for what your autism has done to you though OP :(
>>129969766It sounds like a good song slowed down.
>>129969824This argument would make sense if these people were only making a remix of a song. Vaporwave is attempting to make a unique, much simpler, more repetitive song out of an older, more complicated one. It would be like making a version of Jingle Bells where the only lyrics are "Oh what fun" repeated 50 times.
>>129969564if it was that easy then your flabby fishbelly-white Gen X ass would've done it instead of getting laid off of your software engineering job.even it's just patronizing crap, it still takes a modicum of musical talent, as well as marketing/business talent to be a superstar "music" "producer".
It got overshadowed by hyperpop in the end anyway
>>129970062I'm Gen Z.I've made vaporwave and future funk before. It's not hard. Any nimrod with FL Studio can do it. The reason I am not doing it is because: A. it's 2026, B. the work required is mind-numbing, and C. I don't want to be known for no-skill slop content
>Realize that making vaporwave is incredibly easy and anybody with a laptop and a few minutes can do it without needing to know any musical concepts>Still enjoy it cause it invokes a nostalgic ethereal entertainment value to my earsDo vaporwave artists even take themselves that serious to warrant this hate?
>>129970145OK zoomergood luck making it big as an "music" "producer" with your works of heartbreaking genius.>buh buh I don't even want to be a famous "music" "producer"smells like bullshit. why do you care if & how others do, enough to start a thread about it?
>>129970056This is about modifing an existing work enough so that it's your own? Like. Daft Punk is a textbook sampler of other artist's music in their own.But your saying the dervitive from the orginal source isnt far enough to warrent it as being "original". Especially with genres like vaporwave.
>>129969564I'm skimming through reviews of vaporwave written by established music critics right now and it's a polarizing genre, so your take isn't anything special other than wasting space on the catalog.
>>129970223The crucial difference here is that Daft Punk is good. I have no problem with sampling.
>>129970213Heartbreaking genius?
