Vaporwave Christmas Story

Contemporary Tapes is a Nashville based label focused on highlighting releases from the experimental and vaporwave electronic genres. They’ve released albums from locals such as Palm Spring and Strange Æons but their latest release compiles songs from artists across the country to create a surprisingly pleasing, far-out Christmas album.

Typically,  Vaporwave and Christmas would seem to be two ideas that would never work well together but this comp proves that theory 100% incorrect. Listening to “All I Want For Christmas Is You” or “The Scut Farkis Affair” it’s clear that there’s room for plenty of new styles in the Christmas genre. 

While many of these artists are not Nashville based, Contemporary Tapes is from our fine city and serves as the mastermind behind bringing this all together. I applaud them for pulling it off.
