VAPORAISE 2024 is the first iteration of a new online festival and charity fundraiser – this year for ALS research. It spans 2 days containing over 50 musicians and 10 visual artists and over 20 hours of performances. We hope to raise awareness and funds for a good and important cause – there have been recent breakthroughs research and development in treatment and prevention for ALS, and we hope to make an impact as much as we can with this festival. This year we are fundraising for and partnering with the ALS Society of Canada.

Art Exhibits
You can’t have vaporwave without art. That’s why we’re using this space to showcase the amazing creations from the 3D artists, illustrators, album designers, and visualists in the vaporwave and adjacent communities. We don’t get Bandcamp emails when visual artists put things out – it is our duty here at UD to provide these exhibits.
We’ll try to have a fully fledged showcase for you here every month or two: here!
