|Active  = {{Debut|A|2011}} - 2013<br>2019 - Present

'''INTERNET CLUB''' is the vaporwave project of producer Robin Burnett, half of [[Datavision Ltd.]] and co-founder of [[Hexagon Recordings]]. It is one of the earliest vaporwave projects, with releases dating back as early as 2011. The project contributed much to the early vaporwave scene in both sampling technique and theming. Before a hiatus beginning in 2013, a majority of INTERNET CLUB's albums were released exclusively on file hosts. An unofficial archival Bandcamp page was created on November 15, 2014 by YouTuber AAAAAAAAAA42. This Bandcamp has been maintained by Robin since 2015, with the first official release through the page being [[SOUND CANVAS]].

'''INTERNET CLUB''' is the primary vaporwave alias of Robin Burnett. The INTERNET CLUB alias was created as a reference to Turntable.fm, a now defunct site that Robin and their friends used in 2011 to share audio files and song demos. While originally just used as an artist name for a Computer Dreams homage album, discovering [[Vektroid]]'s music inspired them to continue the project. The project was temporarily retired in mid-2013 in favor of the alias Wakesleep, only formally returning six years later with a performance at 100% ElectroniCON 2 and the album [[SOUND CANVAS]].<br>

A Twitter account was created on September 8, 2011 to promote and accompany the project. The account would usually tweet nonsensical hashtags and phrases (sometimes over 50 tweets per day), occasionally tweeting stock photos and information about upcoming albums. For unknown reasons, the account began to be phased out with the release of [[▣世界から解放され▣]]; with a final tweet published on February 1, 2012. (Before the release of [[UNDERWATER MIRAGE]], Robin expressed regret over retiring the account and admitted they had since lost the password.)

=== ░▒▓新しいデラックスライフ▓▒░ (New Deluxe Life) ===

'''░▒▓新しいデラックスライフ▓▒░''' (<i>New Deluxe Life</i>) is a one-off alias of INTERNET CLUB and one of the earliest vaporwave projects themed around television samples. The project spwaned only the release [[▣世界から解放され▣|▣世界から解放され▣ (Freed From The World)]].

'''ECCO UNLIMITED''' is a more musique-concrete/drone-leaning side-project of INTERNET CLUB. Unlike the other INTERNET CLUB music, ECCO UNLIMITED's music was all recorded to a worn tape and ripped back before publishing. Only two albums were released under the alias, the former being released on Exo Tapes. A third album (a split with Forgotten Light titled "Estrogen/Untitled") was announced on July 30, 2012, but was seemingly never completed.

=== Monument XIII ===

'''Monument XIII''' (or '''monument XIII DualAudio''') is a rarely seen alias of INTERNET CLUB, apparently intended to be a new project entirely.

'''memorex dawn''' is another one-off alias of INTERNET CLUB, used for a single album.  

For years, '''SunCoast Web Series''' was believed (and intended) to be the final INTERNET CLUB project. It was also the first use of Bandcamp for an Internet Club project (ignoring labels). Three teaser singles and an album were released under this name.
