Vaporwave grew out of styles such as witch house and chillwave, as well as relatedinternet communities. Musically, it is often characterized by its heavy use of samplesfrom late '70s, '80s, '90s and early 2000s popular music as well as lounge, smooth jazz orelevator music. Samples are often pitched, layered or altered in classic chopped andscrewed style. Vaporwave is also home to a multitude of sub-genres, which include thefollowing: mallsoft, which combines the typical vaporwave style with a reverb-heavy,atmospheric sound, and utilizes themes of shopping and the buildings in which it occurs -vaportrap, which typically puts ambient synths and pads with trap-styled drum patternsatop its samples - future funk, a more upbeat take on vaporwave that is reminiscent of nu-disco both in production and sound - vapornoise, which typically lathers the originalvaporwave style with distortion and glitches - broken transmission, a sub-genre that takesany one of these styles (typically the chopped-and-screwed approach) and applies it tosamples taken from commercials and similar media - utopian virtual, an approach that tendsto involve sounds akin to MIDI sequencing and a heavily electronic sound, mostly themedaround the concept of perfect life - hypnagogic drift, a more ambient take on the chopped-and-screwed style, making copious use of phasers and delay - late night lo-fi, a stylethat primarily samples funk and R&B to create a soulful atmosphere, and VHS pop, a stylethat combines the typical vaporwave style with punchy hip-hop beats.
