Tuesday Vibes: Citypop

[gorzek]

As far as I can tell, city pop made a resurgence thanks to vaporwave (and all the other *wave derivatives.)
Once you get outside the stuff that's just "Diana Ross but slowed way down," it seems like the go-to was harvesting city pop because, you have to admit, that shit's got the vibes.
Here's a great example of an original city pop album (I have this one on CD, I love it so much):

But I actually discovered it via this vaporwave album:

I think a little while back The Weeknd also sampled a city pop song which of course sent interest into the stratosphere.
I am all for it. I am an anti-hipster about this stuff. The more people enjoying music, the better!!!
