Information
Name Robin Burnett

Location Dallas, Texas, United States
Years Active 2011 - 2013
2017 - 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. The artist is also responsible for the term "vaporwave" being used as a genre descriptor for a previously loose group of early producers.
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 YouTube user AAAAAAAAAA42. This Bandcamp has been maintained by Robin since 2015, with the first official release through the page being SOUND CANVAS.

Project List

INTERNET CLUB

INTERNET CLUB is the primary vaporwave alias of Robin Burnett. The name 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 sketches. The first two INTERNET CLUB singles were originally made public on a friend's site (the now defunct "penguinchan"[1]). At first the alias was just used for these loose tracks and a Computer Dreams homage album, but 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.
A Twitter account was created on September 8, 2011 to promote and accompany the project. The account would typically 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 following the release of ▣世界から解放され▣; with a final tweet published on February 1, 2012. Shortly before the release of UNDERWATER MIRAGE, Robin expressed regret over retiring the account and admitted they had since lost the password.
When asked about the project in early 2012, they described it by saying "i go through youtube looking for videos based on a vibe i decide on. once i have some material i throw them through a video to mp3 converter and fuck with them in audacity and Ableton Live. sometimes i’ll also put them through tape or a process similar to the ECCO UNLIMITED process (such as with “FOREVER” and “NO MORE MONO” on DELUXE)"[2].

░▒▓新しいデラックスライフ▓▒░

░▒▓新しいデラックスライフ▓▒░ (New Life Deluxe) is an alias of INTERNET CLUB, noteworthy for being one of the earliest vaporwave projects themed around television samples and for it's more erratic use of sampling. Up until 2022, the only release by the project was ▣世界から解放され▣. In 2022, the project returned with the release of SPEED DIALER !. A different variation of the alias was used, ░▒▓新・新しいデラックスライフ▓▒░ (New New Life Deluxe).

ECCO UNLIMITED

ECCO UNLIMITED is a more musique-concrete/drone-leaning side-project of INTERNET CLUB. Unlike the other INTERNET CLUB music, all of ECCO UNLIMITED's output was 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. The ECCO UNLIMITED side was released independently on SoundCloud five years later.
When asked about the project in early 2012, they described it by saying "samples or synth stuff chopped up and effected into hell then recorded onto a really awful radioshack tape recorder then recorded back in on a really awful Vietnamese walkman rip-off with bad batteries and a loose headphone jack"[3].

SunCoast Web Series

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, excluding releases on labels. Four teaser singles and an album were released under this name.
