Utopian Virtual RYM Box Set Mix

Описание: https://rateyourmusic.com/list/poison...

Utopian Virtual (sometimes known as Midiwave) is a style of vaporwave which focuses on the sound and aesthetics of commercial Electronic music of the 80s & 90s, specifically corporate-associated background music (think of the "business vacation" or "virtual resort" vaporwave album trope). The genre takes inspiration from a variety of sounds, particularly the moods of New Age, Easy Listening, and Smooth Jazz, with compositional influences from Hypnagogic Pop and Synthpop. This wide array of influences is brought together with a limited palette inspired by the "tacky" sound of late 20th century synthesizers, ringtones, and sample-based synthesis as found in Sequencer & Tracker music from early game consoles and home computers.

The genre's name comes from the monumental 2011 album Far Side Virtual by James Ferraro, an album which built on his past themes of technological utopia, nostalgic atmosphere, and criticism of corporation, but sacrificing lo-fi & repetitive ambience in exchange for hi-fi, layered arrangements that sought to emulate the sound of uncanny valley. Thematically it's a sort of satirization of the futuristic rhetoric and promises of paradise so often associated with corporations of the early digital age. This album is also most often considered the catalyst for Utopian Virtual's establishment as a genre.
