Vaporwave vs. Synthwave (Outrun) and Difference Across this large space of Online retro art, we often have two distinct genres on one hand Outrun and on the other Vaporwave but as you can see on r/vaporwave aesthetics and r/Outrun, it can be hard to tell the difference. Once there was peace in the online communities of r/vaporwave aesthetics and r/outrun, but as time passed these new recruits

Hey guys, i frequent this sub and the vaporwave sub a lot, and recently I've seen a lot of arguments about what differentiates the genres. Well, i tried my best to explain what i feel are the differences between the vaporwave and outrun aesthetic and compiled it into a video.

Vaporwave is a sub genre of Synthwave. Outrun type music ofc is synthwave so its just a stylistic difference. And there are a few songs that I would say are actually Outrun songs, On the Run by Wolf and Raven and Putrun This! by Arcade High are 2 that I think encapsulate it very well.

I don't agree with every point made but, generally speaking, a good watch. It's way simpler than that, Vaporwave is ironic and Outrun is not, Outrun looks and sounds genuinely good, while Vaporwave looks and sounds purposely dated and lame. Vaporwave mocks retro aesthetics, while Outrun celebrates them.

Outrun and Vaporwave may look alike, but they have have clear distinctions. And working with the folks of Utopia District, we can find no better way to illus

The Origin. Synthwave is also widely known as "Outrun" or "Retrowave", although there are minor differences. It traces back to the 1986 SEGA game named "Outrun" which offered a unique musical experience. Synthwave started to shape in the mid-2000s by some popular artists like Justice and College. Vaporwave started its journey in the

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthwave
Synthwave (also called outrun, retrowave, or futuresynth) is an electronic music microgenre that is based predominantly on the music associated with action, science-fiction, and horror film soundtracks of the 1980s. Other influences are drawn from the decade's art and video games. Synthwave musicians often espouse nostalgia for 1980s culture and attempt to capture the era's atmosphere and

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaporwave
Vaporwave is a microgenre of electronic music and a subgenre of hauntology, a visual art style, and an Internet meme that emerged in the early 2010s, and became well-known in 2015. It is defined partly by its slowed-down, chopped and screwed samples of smooth jazz, 1970s elevator music, R&B, and lounge music from the 1980s and 1990s. The surrounding subculture is sometimes associated with an

Probably because it is not about the formalized rules of the aestetic but about emotional repsonse. outrun or vaporwave the pictures work if they ewoke an emotional response. It is hard or impossible to say why some pictures work and others don't, but I'm sure it has nothing to do with stautes vs. cars.

Aesthetics: Vaporwave often adopts the neon-lit, retro-futuristic visuals associated with Synthwave, creating a shared visual language between the two genres. Nostalgia: Both Synthwave and Vaporwave tap into a longing for the past, with Synthwave evoking memories of 1980s nostalgia and Vaporwave reflecting on the consumer culture of the 1990s.

This is much less common in synthwave music, which is more 'to the point.'. This is a nice way of saying that synthwave is less pretentious than vaporwave, which can come off as deliberately obscure or needlessly conceptual to some people. But this is also a nice way of saying vaporwave is more aesthetically diverse than synthwave.

https://www.reddit.com/r/outrun/comments/7yh801/cyberpunk_vs_outrun_vs_vaporwave/
Vaporwave is the present cynically commenting on the past (and present) capitalistic and material obsessions through music and art utilizing iconic representations, colors, and sounds of the age. I'd say Outrun is the happier side to Vaporwave's cynicism, while Cyberpunk merges the two looking in the other direction.

Vaporwave is a unique microgenre of electronic music and a subgenre of Hauntology that emerged in the early 2010s and gained popularity in 2015.

https://www.victorplazma.com/blogs/retroblog/what-is-the-difference-between-synthwave-retrowave
Retrowave is a sub-genre of Synthwave that is all about mimicking the styles made popular in the original 80s boom period. Retrowave has several sub-sub-genres under its umbrella, each focusing on one of those mimicked styles. The best way that I can separate them is by describing a scene and letting you imagine the soundtrack for it.

Vaporwave tends to be more ironic in its approach to 80s and 90s aesthetics, whereas synthwave is more sincere in embracing the 80s. For more vaporwave, have a listen to Blank Banshee, George Glanton, Luxury Elite and Skylar Spence. If you want a really deep dive of differences between these two retro-futuristic subgenres, you can explore

Vaporwave is absolutely 80s oriented. Including the music, aesthetic, and culture . It's just that vaporwave includes elements of the 70s and 90s for a fuzzy nostalgic bleed, vs outrun which is muuuch more specific. Reply reply. [deleted] •. I think that vaporwave is much broader in it's imagery and yeah, some of it is more late-80's than

https://www.reddit.com/r/outrun/comments/5twjbo/whats_the_difference_between_synthwave_retrowave/
Vaporwave is a closely related genre, but differs in many respects. It is in no way a subgenre. Vaporwave is more of a downtempo beat, chopped and screwed and sampled. While Synthwave is designed to emulate classic 80s themes and has an aesthetic of fast cars, faster women, and Miami sunsets, Vaporwave is totally different.

Yeah that has been my understanding as well, while some people argue that Outrun is a music genre, Synthwave and or retrowave have become more popular terms for basically the same music. Outrun has become a more accepted term for the visual aesthetic related to the music, while the vaporwave visuals are mostly just called Vaporwave Aesthetic
