one of the reasons why i stopped making this music was because i simply got tired of hearing the same things over and over again. i wanted to compose, and compose differently. i didn't want to compose original future funk, i wanted to compose different music that still had my touch to it. See also Synthwave, another Internet music genre with the same origins and aesthetics that Future Funk but with original creations instead of being based on samples as in Vaporwave; Nightcore, the inversion of Vaporwave but also internet-born, sample-based, anime-themed, and upbeat-based as Future Funk; and City Pop, the Japanese Pop Music genre from The '80s that Future Funk is mostly based.

To start, various of the artists names are written in Japanese letters (katakana mostly, but there're also in hiragana and kanji), as well various songs are named in Japanese, even when the samples used are in English.

Watch Republic Perks

While their minimalistic divers share similar traits to most other divers in the watch world, their chronographs look unbelievably unique, breaking rules and going beyond your expectations. There are a few well known Japanese brands that produce watches for the mass market, like Casio, Seiko, and Citizen, but these aren’t the only ones. Citizen Japan is well known for their amazing craftsmanship in almost all areas, and the watch world makes no exception. Japanese watchmakers instill into their watch collections the same values that Japan’s culture instilled into its people a long, long time ago. Today, Seiko is one of the biggest watch manufacturers in the world, with the capability of producing their own movements, parts, and components, something few brands can actually do. Citizen is another one of the big four watch brands of Japan, a watchmaking powerhouse the world knows so well. The probably less known thing about them is their philosophy that every citizen of the world deserves to wear a high quality watch on their wrist, which is what the brand’s name stands for.

Lum from Urusei Yatsura is often considered as the mascot of Future Funk, like Hatsune Miku for Vocaloid, appearing in many videos dancing as in some scenes from the series. Covered Up: There're some cases that remixes of old songs (or even other Vaporwave/Future Funk ones) became more famous thanks to their Future Funk remixes being the original versions forgotten by them. A know case is "葛城ミサトYEBISU" by マクロスMACROSS 82-99, being more known the remixed version by Yung Bae. He went on to develop an in-house tourbillon in four years. If that’s not an impressive feat, we don’t know what is. It’s no wonder they have more than a few gems when it comes to the watchmaking industry, some of them maybe even exceeding the quality of Swiss watchmakers.

But that wasn’t their only impressive feat, as Seiko was also the first watchmaker to create the first automatic chronograph watch in the world, the Seiko 5 Sports Speedtimer, beating bigger names in the industry, like Breitling, Zenith, or TAG Heuer.

If you want to enter into Vaporwave territory, Future Funk is a good place to start. Also, influential artists like マクロスMACROSS 82-99 and SAINT PEPSI started first in Vaporwave before they created Future Funk sub-genre years later. The Faceless: As in Vaporwave, Future Funk artists started this way. Thanks to Yung Bae, this is becoming averted since more artists have shown their faces to the public, and even to albums themselves as Yung Bae does since a couple of years ago. Tokyo Is the Center of the Universe: Even more than Vaporwave, Future Funk based its aesthetic into 1980's Tokyo. The use of many 80's and 90's anime clips in Future Funk videos helps reinforce this. I Am the Band: As in Vaporwave, most of the songs are made by a single person. In Future Funk especially, most of their artists are DJs that make their own mixes.Also Usagi Tsukino from Sailor Moon (the 1992 anime) is usually credited as one, especially thanks to マクロスMACROSS 82-99's SAILORWAVE album. The technologies used in the creation process are nothing but high end as well, and the brand simply represents the best of what Seiko’s over a century of experience in watchmaking has to offer. In terms of movements, they do source them from the likes of Seiko and Miyota. When it comes to design, they’ve got solid choices, from automatic chronographs to solar powered pieces, Bauhaus designs, and square shaped dress watches. And the most important price is their accessibility, allowing people to enjoy unique timepieces without breaking the bank.

its a shame, considering that there are many really talented artists that simply refuse to follow that path. (think unibe@t, ev.exi, tendencies, agrume, even supersex420, etc) as a result, they are inadvertently ignored by a vast majority. they have a rawer sound, but they're definitely not bad. They try to connect the entire country in their watchmaking process, using materials from several regions and a wide variety of crafts and specialists. The result is that their watch designs are inspired by the entirety of Japan as a country and culture, without being limited to a specific region.The cases of their watches are incredibly complex and superbly finished, and house sourced Swiss made ETA movements further customized by themselves, but don’t expect their timepieces to be cheap. Retraux: The music videos as well the effects in the songs are clearly based on The '80s and The '90s, mostly thanks to the anime from those years.
