What an audio feast! If you've ever wondered how a virtual Neo Tokyo would sound like in the year 2084, this is probably it. There's never a shortage of punchy drums, soothing synths, midi-jazzlines, prog-rockery, atmospheric wizardry, and glitchy playfulness in here. It's both avant-garde and upbeat. This is what it sounds like if Warhol is into making electronic music.

Vektroid's Seed & Synthetic Earth is a delightful amalgamation of familiar 80s JRPG soundtracks, feisty trapparatious beats, and neo-classical Vaporwave. Step into hyperspace. Get lost in cyberspace. Explore the vast marble-tiled plazas of a post-capitalist utopian society. Wear a courageous smile. Sport a fisherman's hat. Because the future is just too bright, too breezy. Feel like a punk surfing your way into infinite worlds, the place where all the cool kids have gone missing. Truly a one-of-a-kind album worth experiencing. It's almost like homecoming.

11/10 will consider having the album on loop at the deck of my Trans-Atlantic speedcruiser for an eternity. There are nine tracks on the album, and my top pick at the moment is Blood From A Stone. It's still fresh off the oven as it was only released back in November 10, 2017.

Well you nailed it with the review. I listened to much of the music including also the vaporwave. It helped in learning of the backstory. Much of your writing stood out but the words - marble-tiled plazas of a post-capitalist utopian society intrigued me to listen to the videos. As folks should not be stagnant - thanks for expanding my mind tonight.

Haha thanks for indulging in the text. It's very difficult to describe the genre / sound :)

Enjoyed! Uplifting while I cooked lunch for the family. Different as it's not something I would normally listen to but refreshing none the less. Thanks for presenting it and introducing me to something new.........

Very cool music indeed ! It does sound futuristic and I can imagine this music playing if I was able to enter the blockchain in a Tron kind of way and ride in this car. I'm not sure if it looks similar to your speedcruiser?

Oh it's a speedboat that looks like cross between a spaceship and a yacht!

Hehe alright I was a bit off target 🎯

Excellent music, i really enjoy listening the vaporwave music, well i don't know about vaporwave music before but after reading your post i get good knowledge about vaporwave music and while listening to this music i start feeling good, Stay blessed and thanks for sharing

Wonderful music indeed this video review. This one sound mixable. Drums, synths, jazz and rock mixes like as dj musics. Can enjoy and fun superbly.
Come on guys.....be rock & roll
