So I think I finally figured out what PC Music, the latest tumblr genre fad is supposed to be. It's kind of like Vaporwave, but with the early/mid 2000s as the nostalgic decade to riff on the camp of - now that that generation is finally coming of age.

If Vaporwave's defining symbols are Windows 95, the bust of Helios from Floral Shoppe, and crude CGI mall commercials - PC music's defining symbols/influences are AOL, Radio Disney, Initial D OST, Limp Bizkit, and (to a lesser extent) Rebecca Black and Justin Bieber. It's 2000s nostalgia, in other words - for all the ultra-cringey tween-marketed bubblegum pop excess that cometh before the recession. Before Bush Jr.'s approval ratings took a nosedive into oblivion. Now that politics has broken down into full Idiocracy mode, that cringey excess is back with a vengeance.

I personally would've named the genre cringewave, but that's just me.

There's also a lot of transgenderism and identity fluidity, because tumblr.

>artist's name is "QT"

>first song has their name in the song title

The only bands that can pull this off are bands with cool names (e.g. Black Sabbath), "QT" is a stupid name.

Also that song is fucking terrible, holy shit. It's like 2005-era dance music 20-year-old women listened to. The vocals don't even sound like they're mixed properly with the music.

>Earlier 00s things like AOL, Initial D OST, Clone Wars 2003, Limp Bizkit, Lizzie McGuire, the old Xbox interface, etc. seem "old enough" and "cool" to me. Cheesy as fuck, but nostalgic.

>But post-Recession 00s things, like Hannah Montana, Wii, and High School musical, still seem "modern" to me and seem like they're for 15 year olds who are somehow nostalgic for that shitty era.

Strangely, it seems like we all fell into a vortex around 2006-07ish that made everything "high-tech" and newfaggy. Other people seem to feel this way too.

Like, if someone on an Internet forum said "Man, I remember playing Sonic Adventure 2 on my Gamecube while watching Teen Titans and listening to Skater Boy, good times, good times", hundreds of other people would join in with him.

But then, if that guy said "Man, I miss playing Super mario galaxy on my Wii and listening to Justin Bieber, those were good times", the responses would've been "underage get out REEEE" - despite 2009 only being SIX years away from 2003.

Why did the world become so damn newfaggy so fast? Did the Jews speed up the time Matrix?

Personal favorite PC music artists:

Kane West (more electronic, got a good beat)

easyFun (sorta similar, really has the PC music feel to it)

Your comment is cringey nigga

PC Music is not a genre, it's a record label that consists of very specific genres such as Bubblegum Pop that is tailored specifically to pre-smartphone era themes and cyberculture.

It may have been a fad, but they had some catchy tunes. Embed related.

>Did the Jews speed up the time Matrix?

Yes, they did. It all started going to shit post-2008 with the rise of Lady Gaga and her clones from hell with extreme perversions and subliminal messages, resulting with pic related. Remember how t.A.T.u. were shocking for LARPing as lesbians in 2002? 14 years of progressiveness later and look where we are now.

For fucks sake, I've thought about making a twitter hashtag focused around the bush years, and even I think that's too far. At least 15-20 years is needed to clear the air of bullshit.

The biggest problem with this kind of music is that it doesn't sound like music from the early-mid 2000's at all.

There are artists out there who are only in their 20's who can emulate music from the 70's perfectly, but these people can't even recreate a style of music that they would have heard when they were growing up.

Exactly. It's just terrible but "ironically." It's the manifestation of everything wrong with music on the internet
