I have to say that I know next to nothing about vaporwave and the history of the scene. Most of what I’ve heard is, to put it mildly, awful. However, Groove Paradise, a Spanish artist, left me with a more positive view of the genre. The music sounds like something you would hear on 1980’s mainstream radio, with AOR, funk and soul influences, only underwater. I was a teenager during the 80’s, so hearing the music left me with a very pleasant sense of nostalgia. If this is truly representative of vaporwave, then then album is done well.
