[Weekly Recap] 1 January – 7 January
Here’s the first weekly recap of 2018! The vaporwave community had a ton of releases on New Years Day, which shouldn’t be all that surprising. Other bits of note are Midnight Moon Tapes allowing open submissions and the publication of (and continued solicitation for) the Sunbleach end-of-the-year community lists and write-ups.
