57. bliss, innocence, and the joy of the 90s: simple syrup's make me float (chillwave episode)

Vaporwave is an art aesthetic that embodies the anxiety, disillusionment, and nihilism of the modern world. In music form, vaporwave dives deep into these unconscious anxieties, manifesting sounds from past decades - warping them, manipulating them, and summoning the ghost of the good times that were promised by modern capitalism, but never came. Vaporwave is an expression of the pains of the collective modern unconscious, taking the form of heroin-level escapism, ecstasy-inducing pop music, or dystopian ambient worlds. Because of its internet-based nature, its aesthetics have evolved so rapidly, further reflecting the chaotic subconscious of the modern mind. Vaporwave captures the modern unconscious of humans raised by the internet succinctly, and understanding this art form matters. In each episode, we listen to tracks that make up genre and give our thoughts, analysis, emotions, and commentary on them. Let's set sail on the Virtual Ocean. And now, for today’s episode. If you want to know what it feels like to fly through cotton candy clouds and blissfully experience the innocence of the 90's, this is an album you want to experience. Simply Syrup's Make Me Float combines this very open space with a touch of funk and hip hop, and it does that it says it does: it makes you float. Its nostalgia is a reminder that our memories can be used as a prime source of joy, and it's ok to fall into them and relax. Let's set sail for Simple Syrup's Make Me Float.
