night coverage is a sublabel of vaporwave label Gorgeous Lights, formed specifically with an affinity for the broken transmission subgenre. The label is operated by an alias of COSMIC CYCLER's, with a majority of releases being through anonymous or more "mysterious" formatting.

Through 2020 and beyond, the label began to further experiment and experience waves of albums (or even the entire discography) becoming offline with little to no warning. This was accompanied by a growing public disdain towards the "signalwave" label (a sibling term to broken transmission), instead donning the personal titled of "CMPUNK".[1]

By 2021, this elevated to the point of the night coverage Twitter account becoming gradually more flagrant and bombastic in nature, at one point being referred to by the label as a personal Twitter account. This coincided with the release of other satirical albums on the site by the label creator, including a set of piano pieces titled lazy loops poops fo today and a set of unmodified Japanese commercial audio released under the name of "天気予報 2". The increased divisiveness seemingly created out of ennui directed at the genre is comparable to that of HKE's Dream Catalogue (and TKX, in terms of a mysterious artist-imprint-like sublabel with a transition to more inflammatory or parodic content).

The label's "heel"-ish behavior continued until that July, where the label suddenly removed most satirical releases, restored all offline releases, deactivated the Twitter account, and returned to new publishing.
