Going with ex “wife” to a future funk and vaporwave party. I don’t really know what future funk is, but I’m always open for a new thing to complain about because I’m deeply unhappy and unfulfilled in life.

Probably gonna suck
I’m sure everyone will be having a blast but me.
Future funk is a subgenre of electronic music that blends elements of funk, disco, and Japanese city pop with modern production techniques. It originated in the early 2010s, influenced by the vaporwave movement, and is known for its nostalgic, upbeat, and danceable sound.
Key characteristics of future funk include:
Heavy Sampling: It often features samples from 1970s and 1980s funk, disco, and city pop tracks, typically speeding them up or adding modern beats.
Upbeat Tempo: The music tends to have an energetic, fast-paced feel, making it perfect for dancing.
Retro Aesthetic: Future funk is deeply rooted in nostalgia, often accompanied by visual aesthetics that borrow from 80s anime, VHS effects, and neon colors.
Funky Basslines and Synths: The genre heavily incorporates funky basslines, bright synthesizers, and rhythmic grooves that feel fresh but familiar.
Disco and City Pop Influence: It draws significant inspiration from Japanese city pop, which was popular in the 1980s, blending Western and Japanese influences.
Notable future funk artists include Yung Bae, Macross 82-99, and Saint Pepsi.

This is actually great. Dude is flirting with house a bit. It’s a party. And I have the best sounding spot in the venue.

At a deep house party. This stuff just feels like home. Definitely a correlation between how good a crowd is and how few of the attendees are straight white dudes like me.

Been loving this brand of techno coming from some Australian and British DJs recently (Mall Grab, DJ Boring, KETTAMA). Not too tech house adjacent and not too aggressively hard but still poignant
Duh.

If I’m in the same city as Prydz, I feel like I have to. He’s not washed quite yet in my book.
