Future Funk
It is a subgenre of Vaporwave conjugated with J-Funk, French House and Nu Disco. The main ones in charge of making this genre known are Macross 82-99, Yung Bae, Desired, Vantage, Aests, Mikazuki BIGWAVE, Engelwood and LemKuuja.
Vaporwave was born as a genre of Smooth Jazz with elements of electronic music, Lofi and ambient music, from this genre, comes the use of the word "aesthetic".
But due to how strange Vaporwave can be heard, being a bit shocking, cumbersome or difficult to understand, the idea of reinventing the genre was born, trying with faster, happier and more moving beats, thus making it more Funky, adding elements of the J-Funk among which is Miki Matsubara (Stay With me), Makoto Matsushita (Love was really gone), Kingo Hamada (Crystal Dophin), Mariya Takeuchi (Plastic Love).
To complement this, another genre is introduced: French House, which is a genre of electronic music derived from House that emerged in France in the late 80s and early 90s. It achieved some popularity in Europe thanks to artists like Cassius, Justice, Daft Punk, Modjo or Motorbass. The question is why were these genres taken to make Future Funk? The reason is simple: These genres come from the musical Disco, which is a union of Funk and Soul.
Among some of the main pioneers in giving birth to this genre, we can find Macross 82-99 with their album A Millions Miles Away, Yung Bae with Bae and Desired with Lovestory. Over time more people have joined the genre, among which we can find Vantage, Aests, Engelwood and Mikazuki BIGWAVE. Normally this genre has been known through memes, since if you listen to a song you can identify it by being in a meme or Tik Tok. Next I will leave a Spotify playlist compiling the best future funk songs that were relevant at the time (it is recommended to listen randomly):
In my humble opinion: Future Funk has a lot of potential with tremendous songs, I recommend listening to Macross 82-99 and Yung Bae if you are interested in listening to the genre, it is little known due to lack of popularity and attention, since it is not given so much importance and it happens like the typical music of memes or tik toks otaku. Despite this, it is a very danceable genre, with good sampling, it can be catchy and sometimes too loud, so there are different ways to listen to Future Funk, there are more upbeat songs, others too bright, and some very soft giving a feeling of melancholy, but always maintaining the essence of Future Funk with Funky and House elements at the same time.
