A community for sharing and discussing art, aesthetics, and music relating to '80s, '90s, and '00s retro microgenres and also art in general now!
Some cool genres and aesthetics include:
- outrun
- vaporwave
- mallsoft
- future funk
- city pop
- synthwave
- laborwave
If you are unsure if a piece of media is on theme for this community, you can make a post asking if it fits. Discussion posts are encouraged, and particularly interesting topics will get pinned periodically.
No links to a store page or advertising. Links to bandcamps, soundclouds, playlists, etc are fine.

I think most Lovecraft-based art is horrible. But I really like that. It's ~14 inches tall.
