'''New Dreams Ltd.''' is a primary alias of Vektroid's, and in some terms can double as a label of sorts for Vektroid's own projects. New Dreams Ltd. is notable for giving a more visible storyline to the Vektroid "universe", the alias itself being less restricted by styles of audio manipulation. Sampling of 80s-era advertisements and audio from Japan and otherwise is typical for the project, though

New Dreams Ltd. is notable for giving a more visible storyline to the Vektroid "universe", the alias itself being less restricted by styles of audio manipulation. Sampling of 80s-era advertisements and audio from Japan and otherwise is typical for the project, though releases such as the Initiation Tape series or Eden provide a more ambiguous setting.

===Macintosh Plus===
Seemingly Vektroid's most infamous alias in the vaporwave scene, '''Macintosh Plus''' is another single-release project responsible for Floral Shoppe, an album considered definitive to the genre by most. Though Vektroid herself has not officially extended the alias's lifetime beyond its debut album, multiple others have attempted to take on the name, either in cheap parody or actual attempts at forgery.

===情報デスクVIRTUAL===
'''情報デスクVIRTUAL''' (''Information desk VIRTUAL'') is one of Vektroid's most vaporwave-resembling aliases in presentation, being her first use of Japanese text in an alias and album name. The music itself is meant to resemble a sterile business-like environment that would affect the genre's direction as a whole.

===PrismCorp Virtual Enterprises===
'''PrismCorp Virtual Enterprises''' is a Vektroid project that influenced and reflected the concepts of vaporwave significantly through sterile, corporate storytelling and a distinct MIDI sound. Like other aliases, the name was used once in a two-release burst, the albums later rereleased with extended tracklists.
