I N T E R P O N: Ponies + Obscure Internet Genres

Postby Viricide Filly » 17 Jun 2014 11:15

You peeps might have heard of certain genres springing up around bandcamp, youtube etc. Genres such as "Vaporwave", "Seapunk", "Witch House", "Cloud Rap" etc. And you might be wondering what they all even are.

I N T E R P O N is a free album event I'm setting up, suggested by 3ternal, which holds the purpose of teaching bronies these new genres that they might never have heard of, as well as giving artists oppertunities to make something REALLY out there.

The rules are as follows:
1) The genre of music you can make for this album must fall under or be similar to:
THE SOUND OF GOD
Vaporwave
Mallsoft
Seapunk
Chillwave
Witch House
Cloud Rap
lowercase
If you know of any genres I've missed that could fall under the subject of this album, PLEASE let me know in the comments and I'll add it to the list.
2) Try and name your track as bizarrely as possible. You don't have to, but symbols and Japanese text and weird artsy text usually go hand in hand with vaporwave, seapunk and witch house.
3) Since vaporwave is about looking back, mostly, bonus points for sampling lower generations of MLP
4) This is an album to teach bronies about these genres, so MLP music is recommended, but not required.

If you're unsure as to what any of these genres are, I have some links to essential musicians in each genre.

I have a thread in the music discussion forum about vaporwave and mallsoft, with many essentials and good songs/albums in the genre linked there. The reason I'm saying this is because for some reason MLR decided to break the spoilers I just made that contained like 10 tracks all on youtube. Thanks, MLR. Love you too.



Spoiler Chillwave:




Spoiler Witch House:






Please feel free to look up more.

So, deadlines, submissions etc.
The deadline will be the 25th of JULY. Submissions will be sent either via e-mail to [email protected] (PLEASE include "interpon submission" in your e-mail title so I know what it is), or via a dropbox/mediafire/whatever link, linked to me on skype. You can contact me on skype at DS26662.
I'll be making a skype chat for this, as well.

SUBMISSIONS MUST BE IN WAV FORMAT OKAY THANK YOU

If you have any other questions I'll be pleased to answer them for you.
I guess all that's left to say is ɢ ᴏ ᴏ ᴅ ʟ ᴜ ᴄ ᴋ フレンズ (I got that straight from google translate, don't sue me)
We breakfast is e


House. Glitch Hop. IDM. Breakbeat. Chillout. Footwork. Lo-fi. Vaporwave. Noise. These are some of the genres I like to completely ruin.

Totally up for this. I guess it's time to try vaporwave or chillwave again.

*strokes chin*

I might give this a whirl. Trying new genres is fun. I might not make something explicitly pony though.

This doesnt really seem too understanding of the spirit in the genres when they're grouped together like this, really...

The point of Vaporwave is to be kitschy and repetitive, it's sorta a commentary on corporatism in popular music. Would be more fun to like sample one of the 2011 first brony musicians.

But whatever, might be cool. Might submit something.
