{"product_id":"vapor-city-archives","title":"Vapor City Archives","description":"Travis Stewart's elaborate Vapor City concept amounted to the album of the same title, the Eyesdontlie, Gunshotta Ave., and Fenris District singles\/EPs, a pair of additional EPs issued to members of his Vapor City \"citizen program,\" and an interactive website. Vapor City Archives is the concluding element. The title's third word is a bit misleading. This isn't merely a collection of scraps, but another succinct, deliberately sequenced set -- one that is almost on the level of the parent release. Apart from a retouch of the Vizion Centre EP's \"Vizion\" and the reappearance of the Vapor Park EP's \"Tried and True,\" the material is new. It's of a familiar makeup: syntheses of so-called bass music, juke, drum'n'bass, and house that have wistful\/dispirited allure through jittery rhythms and gauzy melodies, some of which come from spangling space-folk guitar, presumably played by Stewart. The producer likewise incorporates vocals, either mostly or completely sampled, that tend to evoke senses of longing, losing grasp, and persevering. \"Only 1 Way 2 Know\" and \"B Patient,\" the top highlights, nervously swell and recede in intensity, and ache with a magnetic power similar to that of Vapor City tracks like \"Infinite Us\" and \"Don't 1 2 Lose U.\" This caps off a run of some of Stewart's finest Machinedrum output and was released only a few months after Jesse Boykins III's brilliant Love Apparatus, most of which he produced. ~ Andy Kellman","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52674584707359,"sku":"5021392949123","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/d62816465a51a59c8fc6799274c35500.jpg?v=1783936789","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/vapor-city-archives","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
