Vaporwave News Network

Hello and Welcome to the Vaporwave News Network: a podcast about the contemporary Vaporwave Scene. We feature news, discussion and current trends as well as reporting on releases and events in the Vaporwave, Future Funk and adjacent communities.

This is Episode 14, covering January 2024 and recapping what’s been happening in the first month of the year. In our main topic, we’re reporting on the recent news about Pitchfork while also reflecting on the relationship of another dead media website, Tiny Mix Tapes, to the vaporwave scene. There is also a review, show calendar and news updates plus our history segment about what might be the real first vaporwave album.
