music: lots of vaporwave

lin_netThe answer to what I've been listening to lately is mostly "loads of vaporwave / chillwave". (And Donkey Kong Country music with thunderstorm ambience on top, but that doesn't really feel worth recommending in the same way.) Here's some albums I've enjoyed recently:
Bathroom Plants - Installing Symbiotopia 2.0.1
Someone I shared this with described it as feeling like they were in 4th grade and they'd just wheeled in the TV cart to show stop motion footage of plants growing while these tracks play in the background. I really can't think of a better description.
Windows96 - Plume Valley
Windows96 is consistently good and this one is JRPG flavored so you really can't go wrong there.
Eyeliner - Drop Shadow
Feels very specifically 90s to me in a way I can't pinpoint because I don't know anything about music, I guess, but it's tasty. Not sure what the exact vibe is here but I enjoy it a lot.
Voyage Futur - Inner Sphere
Very smooth, ambient, chill. Ideal for listening to while laying in the late-afternoon semi-dark with the curtains drawn and your eyes closed. Sunken Forest might be my favorite track for how drippy and echoing it is.
