One of my favourite record labels recently, Dream Catalogue, specialises in a relatively recent genre and movement/internet subculture called vaporwave. It's quite an ambiguous genre at that, and can include music that could quite easily be called ambient, or downtempo, or jazz, or soul, or funk. To those unfamiliar, it's a very broad term, but it all seems to have a common attitude and feel driving it, which often remains quite difficult to fully realise too, and in fact that is something of an inside joke within the scene; nobody quite knows what it is and what it's supposed to mean and represent. But there is always something there that is recognisable and appealing in the music this scene produces.
But at any rate, Dream Catalogue is a stunning label that has a lot of ambient on it, and honestly I cannot recommend them enough!
Their Bandcamp is definitely worth perusing:
https://dreamcatalogue.bandcamp.com/
But for specific recommendations, these albums and artists are a must:
t e l e p a t h テレパシー能力者 - アンタラ通信
https://dreamcatalogue.bandcamp.com/album/--19
Hong Kong Express - HK
https://dreamcatalogue.bandcamp.com/album/hk
and the two together:
２８１４ - 新しい日の誕生
https://dreamcatalogue.bandcamp.com/...?v=vrRNj4tP4Sc
These two also run the label, so what better representatives of their sound?
Hope you enjoy!
