[quote=@Utrax]Is this just another generation's version of "cool music/art exclusive and created by us" type of thing?
Am I right or am I missing something here?
Why do people like it so much if it's so been there done that? Why are there so many people listening to it?

No, not really. It was relevant for about a year and outside of a few pieces it really hasn’t had any lasting power. More reminiscent of the internet culture that birthed it, it had its five seconds of fame before becoming irrelevant. The type of people who enjoyed vaporwave have moved on to making Kanye West sound collage projects. No, I’m not joking.
