Sad news in the vaporwave world when on March 9th, 2019 vaporwave label, Sunset Recording, sent out a tweet declaring they are closing up shop.
Hi all,

We regret to inform you that Sunset will be shutting down effective immediately. All current orders will be shipped out ASAP. We apologize for the inconvinence and thank you for the great memories!
After 3 years of contributing to the community and releasing over 40 albums with various artist, it surely was a shock to hear.
The label was best known for their albums with artists such as KAHN 美的, 猫 シ Corp., 脳力. ΞLΞVΛTΞ, and other big artists in the scene.
It’s unsure what the future of they people running Sunset Recordings but we hope their future is bright.
I reach out to them over twitter to see if we could get an episode going as a going away and to clear up any questions their fans had. I guess we’ll see if they have the time as they are trying to distance themselves from the label.
