about

In 2004 the vaporwave label was launched, home to Dynarec's spiky aqua beats and oceanic imagery. Other EP's emerged from this small but diverse scene such as 'Return to the Vapor' by the aptly named V-WAVE.

At a festival this year, HOTL heard Orca dropped in a particularly good set and had a massive nostalgia hit. 12 years ago a young HOTL found 'Return to the Vapor' in a bargain bin in a record shop in York and became a fan of the artist and the emerging scene.

Excited to hear Orca once more HOTL turned to his friend Roy with evident glee, 'I remember this!'

'Yeah Orca by V-WAVE' mused Roy, 'I used to talk to Terry back in the day'

'You know this guy?!'

'Yeah Terry Wankles. Guy from Portsmouth. Was into making this 'vaporwave' genre on chat forums around 2005, we all thought he was a bit weird. They managed to shift a few hundred vinyl and then it kinda fizzled out when everyone realised it was just boring Drexciya rip offs. I bet I can find him online'

Roy found him online.

HOTL presents Return to the Vapor - Pt.1: A Deep Sea Journey by Terry Wankles. But it doesn't end there. We now have access to unreleased material in parts 2-4 that Terry wrote between the years 2006-10 before retiring and concentrating on his job as it didn't really go anywhere. We look forward to unveiling these in the near future and sharing with you this aqua saga as you sink deeper into the void.
