Title: A Vaporwave Track I Made Using Samples From "I am the Wind"

The audio quality was lowered a bit when exporting and there's one black frame for some reason btw, sorry about that  :P

OK soooo... Is "Vaporwave" a method through which people try to convert nightmares into sound?

Yeah...I'm not really understanding what this is, or is supposed to be.  No offense.

To copy and paste a definition, "Vaporwave is a music genre and art style that emerged in the early 2010s. It is often characterized by a nostalgic fascination with retro cultural aesthetics, commercial artifacts, and technology, as well as a critical or parodic preoccupation with consumer capitalism and popular culture." I'll admit this isn't the best track, but I have no musical experience whatsoever, and it's sampled from a Castlevania game's song so I figured I'd share it here.

Yeah but...what do you do with it?  Why is it SO different from the original song?

EDIT: Okay, I watched it again with the volume turned up a bit more.  I can kinda hear some of the samples...but still, why would someone want to use/make this? (No offense to you...I'm just failing to see the usefulness or something.)

I think Vaporwave can be described in one song.

Thanks for linking to that video, KaZudra. It's so strange, but kept me positively entertained throughout.  ;D
