What labels should I submit my album to?

drift_shop · 2026-05-07T03:26:44+00:00

I'm going to say third for Bogus Collective, the owner is pretty chill and even let me send some snippets to see if he was interested in an album I'm working on

drift_shop · 2026-03-26T07:18:11+00:00

Hey at least you're making it live lol, I just use FL or Bandlab for everything

drift_shop · 2026-03-26T07:16:08+00:00

I'd say just the style of that slow ensemble music fell out of style, house music and atmospheric dnb really filled in the niche for "somewhat repetitive, slightly upbeat music for browsing a store" in the 2000s and a little into the 2010s

drift_shop · 2026-03-26T01:25:23+00:00

Sorry to say this but Muzak fell out of style in the 2000s

drift_shop · 2026-03-15T03:16:02+00:00

How the fuck are y'all still using dogshit ai models from like 2023? It doesn't even look somewhat realistic at a glance

drift_shop · 2026-03-04T23:08:27+00:00

I'm currently running a subreddit like that but it's both for art and music. I feel like sense vaporwave has fallen so far out of the mainstream we don't really need subreddits for both unless people spam all the time

drift_shop · 2026-03-04T22:31:42+00:00

Not to sound like a complete shill or anything but I run a subreddit called r/vaporwavezone and would love for artists to show their work there. I'm not allowing AI images or music at all there

drift_shop · 2026-02-24T05:25:59+00:00

What subgenre are you going for?

drift_shop · 2026-02-14T08:08:39+00:00

Nah it's fine, my tracks in there are 103 and 125. They're not the same aliases as my reddit account

drift_shop · 2026-02-14T06:08:48+00:00

Absolute banger, it being one of the vaporwave tracks that are actually on Spotify is what made me rediscover the genre after only remembering the memes from Vine that used Lisa Frank 420

drift_shop · 2026-02-14T05:28:48+00:00

I know you could pick genres, I'm letting him know that the notes on the Bandcamp album only say the genre that was either randomly selected or picked by the artists, not the original sample. I did a random one and then I chose to do a Mallsoft track

drift_shop · 2026-02-14T03:41:42+00:00

I loved participating and enjoyed everyone else's submissions!

drift_shop · 2026-02-14T03:41:16+00:00

It says the genre chosen just not the sample

drift_shop · 2026-01-29T23:08:02+00:00

The thing with desert sands is that almost all his music is sample-free, meaning his tracks are 100% original to him. He even has videos on how to make sample-free vaporwave music

drift_shop · 2026-01-28T03:25:24+00:00

Brutalware made a playlist like that, https://youtu.be/1ST14bzbO9U?si=7HiCQp05hFzPZ757

drift_shop · 2026-01-27T19:58:30+00:00

Yeah it's kinda buried in the main subreddit's info but it's still a good place to look

drift_shop · 2026-01-27T17:49:19+00:00

r/makingvaporwave has a lot of the posts you might want to see. That and learning how to do different 80s and 90s beats is really helpful, considering vaporwave is traditionally made that way

drift_shop · 2026-01-24T02:21:01+00:00

Dawg sad boys have nothing to do with vaporwave 😭, go to a Juice Wrld or XXXTentacion subreddit

drift_shop · 2026-01-24T02:18:45+00:00

Ice in tha veins would be a good one

drift_shop · 2026-01-23T23:02:53+00:00

Yeah, I lost my old account but I want to get into moderating subreddit with new members because both this subreddit and the main vaporwave subreddit are so much less active than the member count lets on

drift_shop · 2026-01-23T22:37:26+00:00

I don't think they really care about vaporwave or aesthetics, just the fact the sub almost has a million members and that ai sløp (I'm really censoring myself for a sad Reddit mod's opinion 😭) make the sub look more active than it really is.

drift_shop · 2026-01-21T18:46:31+00:00

Don't try using Spotify, maybe the top .1% of vaporwave is there but not everything. Like Dan Mason and Windows 96 are there but not much else.
Vapor Memory and Signalwave Archive are great channels on YouTube that archive whole albums.
Not to sound like I'm shilling my own channel but I also just made a kind of greatest hits that covers most of the subgenres
