Description
re-edit of descent.wav, originally released on february 29th, 2016. retooled between march 2017 and august 2017. further re-invisioned for cassette in late 2018.
before making chillwave and psychedelic synth music as VCRSLOT, i used to spend my time making vaporwave stuff in audacity and later ableton. started out ironically as a bet between some irl friends of mine and it blossomed into an entire thing for me. revisiting this album, i still have a soft spot for it and what i ended up accomplishing with it. tooling with vaporwave stuff helped me get a grip on how to use samples in my music, which is *very* helpful as a beatmaker and house musician in the present. of all my vapor stuff that's out now, this is absolutely my favorite, despite it still being pretty rough here and there. i hope all of you enjoy listening to it as much as i enjoyed making it.
