Subject:: TBD vs. vaporwave

I deleted the message this morning that linked to The Black Dog mix, but not before checking out the mix. (I don't care about the "hoax" and all that drama -- I'm just here to talk about the music.) Don't get me wrong, I appreciate some the material on _Liber Dogma_ ("Eden 353" and "Feeder Rub Out" come to mind), and I certainly appreciated the heads up this morning, but I found the mix really, really boring. Tonight, as I sit here jamming out to vaporwave (yet again), I was reflecting on why I currently dig the style so much. And it's funny: some of it sort of takes me back to TBD live @ the Black Lodge. Which, like a lot of vaporwave, was originally only available as a limited edition cassette haha. I think the track linked below is about 5 years old, but I just heard it for the first time this week, and it completely blows away anything TBD has done this millennium https://specialedition.bandcamp.com/track/purple-palm-plaza Can somebody less ignorant please translate the name of that artist? TIA and cheers, phase np: "Closing Hour" from same release (SPECIAL EDITION)

I certainly cannot translate that name, and — sorry for pushing open doors —, do you know that this track is actually the *« The night »* by Valerie Dore <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=80ssUKt76-c> ? This is no anecdotal : it's an italo-disco smash hit. Although i had the 45 when i was a kid, i don't remember playing it 33 — i was probably a little too young for this back then. Conversely, a few years later i've been extensively playing my all-time favorite FPI Project's *« Rich in paradise »* b-side <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__YB9IK28Xo> @ 33 instead of 45, which would confer it quite an irresistible Larry Heard flavour.

Well, sorry for being « that guy » but – although i didn't study the arrangement carefully –, this « vaguewave »version doesn't sound much of a breakthrough to me. I mean most, if not all of the italo-dance 45's b-sides were actually instrumental versions, this Valerie Dore single <https://www.discogs.com/fr/Valerie-Dore-The-Night/release/115647> being no exception. If you aim to vaporwave yourself, Den Harrow's « Future Brain » <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eaa-_-aC0uc>, is another italo-favorite – although not as classy maybe ! As a kid, i often used to prefer the b-sides over the a-ones and, much later, often wondered whether the Franck de Wulf's « B-Sides » alias was named after that !

Thanks, Jeff! Also thx for posting some other VW suggestions a week or so ago. I saved the email and hope to have time to get back to it soon. And Laurent, no need to be sorry! I certainly agree that if all Neko-Shi Corp. did was slow down an existing b-side, that's not very creative. One of these days I might try to track down the original b-side and compare. But tbh, IDGAF because the end result sounds so good!
