Not very many people know of this sort of music so I decided to share two examples that maybe someone here will enjoy it.

Vaporwave seems like the type of thing people here would either love, or see as a derivative insult to 80s pop music. 🤣

(I'm actually in the former camp 😉)

I actually had to read the title twice, 'til I realized it wasn't saying "Vaporware". 😊

I've seen a number of retrocomputing YouTubers actually complaining on the "a e s t h e t i c s" comments below their videos. 😀

Here's a nice short explanation behind vaporwave culture, and here's some explanation behind music.

If I wanted to hear elevator music I'd go to a mall and ride in one.
