The sort of music that is beyond time.
The sort of music that you feel more than you hear.
I love the fact that vaporwave/dreampunk projects like these have such extremely evocative aesthetics they directly fill your mind with sensations you didn't know you had. You'd maybe think it relies on that solely, but it's coupled with gorgeous musicianship + intense production ideas. The volume and spaces it creates just pull you in instantly whatever your initial mood was.
Still stunning to this day. SUPRAQUENCER
Another interesting addition to the CHAOS compilation series that focuses more on the techno side of dreampunk with some ambient, more abstract moments, even some proto Flap songs in the labyrinth this compilation resides. The bangers within make this a definite listen and make me wonder why people say dream catalogue fell off after 2016 when this is a shining beacon of the progress of the label and its sound.
