Yep, vaporwave is very millennial-centric, with song samples rooted in '80s and '90s pop, with an intentional pre-Internet feel. Things that millennials would have fading, but extremely resonant, nostalgic memories about.
The younger generation caught on to vaporwave's appealing use of slowed and reverbed samples, and created their their own spin on it now with "Frutiger Aero", which is 2000s vaporwave with a graphical/audio aesthetic that brings to mind Windows XP/Vista, Nintendo DS/Wii, Neopets, Flash games and early Youtube but cuts off before the iPhone age.
