'''David Russo''', also known under the alias '''HKE''' (Which is a shortened version of '''Hong Kong Express'''), Lucid, and a myriad of other aliases, is a British experimental vaporwave, techno, hardvapour, and dreampunk producer from London. Russo would begin their music career in 2011 under the alias '''Negev''', but wouldn't be making vaporwave until August 2013 under the alias '''Subaeris'''.


Russo is best known for their works in the hardvapour and dreampunk movement, their ownership of the controversial vaporwave label [[Dream Catalogue]], and the vast majority of aliases and one-off nicknames. Russo's work with [[t e l e p a t h テレパシー能力者]] under the group name [[2814]] would be a significant factor in the popularization of dreampunk with the album [[新しい日の誕生]] becoming one of vaporwave's most well-known albums. The albums [[2047]], [[Gateway アセンション]], and [[HK]] released by Russo would become staples of Dreampunk.

The albums [[2047]], [[Gateway アセンション]], and [[HK]] released by Russo would become staples of Dreampunk.


Russo would also become of vaporwave's most controversial with their diversion into "vaporhell" (In relation to [[Vaporwave Is Dead]]), their toxic and snotty social media activity, the on-and-off "closures" of Dream Catalogue that would be undermined one or two months after, and their larger-than-life personality. Releases under aliases and groups such as '''The/End''' (A project along with [[Remember]]), '''M''', '''Lucid''', and '''White Banshee''' would also legitimize their status as a controversial figure.
Russo would also become vaporwave's most controversial musicians in their pioneered subgenres along with vaporwave in general. Russo's multiple actions such as his diversion into "vaporhell" (In relation to [[Vaporwave Is Dead]]), his toxic, larger-than-life, snotty social media activity, his critical nature on vaporwave leading to the creature of hardvapour,<ref>[[Vaporwave Is Dead]]</ref> and their creation of "flap" to troll<ref name="book">[https://antifur.bandcamp.com/album/the-book-of-life The Book of Life by Martin Smith]</ref> would just be some of the reasons for his polarizing reception. Russo's label, [[Dream Catalogue]], would also go through many on-and-off closures that would be undermined one or two months later<ref>[[Choonz]]</ref><ref>[https://vwmusicrocks.com/an-interview-with-david-russo-aka-hke An Interview with David Russo AKA HKE]</ref>. Their plethora of side projects also house most examples of their controversial behavior with aliases such as '''White Banshee''' and '''Lucid'''.

'''HKE''' is the primary alias under David Russo, known for their hardvapour, industrial techno, and "flap" releases that usually stray away from the dreampunk genre they're heavily known for creating. The alias is also the one Russo is most active on, having more than twenty releases under its belt. It's also the alias that's most associated with their "self-aware" and "shitpost" like releases with projects such as [[Choonz]] and its sequel, ''A NU MYSTIC TRAJECTORY'', ''Birth Of Da Nu World'', ''#Hyperchill'', and ''More Electric Swill To Fill Up Your Stupid Heads''.

==Hong Kong Express==
'''Hong Kong Express''' is one of the first aliases by David Russo that would kick off their vaporwave career. The full name of the shortened alias '''HKE''', Russo's releases under the alias are focused heavily on the soundscapes of dreampunk and ambient compared to the latter's hardvapour and techno direction. Russo would also tap into sounds of vaporwave and downtempo throughout the earlier releases of Hong Kong Express with [[浪漫的夢想]] and [[2047]]. However, releases such as [[Lucid to It]] would reflect the musical direction of HKE.
