ALT It's widely held that Pleasant Specter OST is not the soundtrack to a scrapped Dreamcast game, as its distributors claim. Outside of the Bandcamp and Dream Catalogue pages for Pleasant Specter and the equally-dubious Commercial Work 1993-2004 compilation, there's no trace of a Pleasant Specter or a SpecterSoft or a Yamato Kobayashi, at least as a musician and composer. The story of Pleasant Specter, then, is most likely fake. But isn't that sort of the point? Vaporwave exists as an intermediate between a past imagined in the future and a future imagined in the past, as a realm of ambiguous desires and meanings — things that might have existed, might not have, and the shifting, aching nostalgias we assign to them.

Silly Choonz has Sofia, now four, collabing with her dad for more coherent music, and even has a feature from Black Banshee, one of Russo's friends. Say what you will about Russo & co. (the consensus seems to be that the guy is a real asshole, and so are many of his buddies), but I think this is a cute, sweet way to encourage your kid's creative side and is also just plain interesting to hear. "Silliness" on Choonz is pretty good! I will genuinely be following Sofia's work. :)
