Is a subgenre of electronic music born in 2008, "raised" in 2010, but also this subgenre have other subgenres (for example: EccoJams, VaporTrap, NoiseWave...). At the first time VaporWave, SinthWave and LoFi Beat were separated, but now (due people who mistake the aesthetics of these 3 genres) they all are on the under the name of VaporWave.
the most iconic vaporwave album is: Floral Shoppe (also its 2nd track "Lisa Frank 420 / Modern Computing" was an internet meme) by MACintosh Plus (aka Vektroid).
