14. the intoxicating trance of negative gemini's body work (100% electronicon episode)

The Virtual Ocean is the “Let’s Listen” vaporwave discovery podcast. What is vaporwave? Vaporwave is a music genre (and internet meme) that appropriates mood music from the past while presenting subtle takes on modern-day consumerist culture. The genre has drawn many passionate listeners with its powerful immersion, ambiguous commentaries, and the genre's unique ability to amalgamate with the memes created as its byproduct. It's a genre with several subgenres that are extremely distinct from one another in sound and style; and yet evoke similar archetypal ideas that say, either explicitly or implicitly, a lot about the modern world.It's also very, very, aesthetic.In each episode, we listen to tracks that make up genre and give our thoughts, emotions, and commentary on them.In episode 14, we continue to celebrate the launch of the first vaporwave music festival held by 100% Electronica by listening to the work of the cofounder, Negative Gemini and her album Body Work.
