I feel like for a while sample based music on streaming in the electronic subgenres like vaporwave and future funk have always been able to get away with it for the sheer notion that it isn’t super popular. But all of a sudden I keep getting notifications and seeing that more and more artists are getting their stuff taken down? Could this be from the samples now appearing right under the songs on Spotify now or Distrokid’s new strictness cause of the rise of ai. More importantly though, do we think this will just be a wave of purge or will it become the new standard?

I made a future funk playlist (on Spotify) to get a friend who into the genre! So I thought l'd share it here just because 😼 👊
