About

Doomerwave is a subgenre of music similar to Vaporwave and Chopped and Screwed associated with Doomers. The genre is primarily popular on YouTube, where YouTubers will post slowed-down remixes of alternative rock songs with an animation of a Doomer serving as the visual. The remixes are defined by their lower pitch, stretched length, record crackles and high reverb.

Origin

On February 3rd, 2019, YouTuber blazeaster posted a video titled "DAY IN THE LIFE OF DOOMER," an animation showing a Doomer walking through a grocery store, going to his car, and putting on music. The song is a slowed-down version of "There Is A Light That Never Goes Out" by The Smiths (shown below, left). On February 20th, Axie_Beats posted a longer version of the track in blazeaster's video, gaining over 99,000 views (shown below, right).



Spread

Over the following months, other YouTubers began to experiment with and expand upon the style, with many artists giving Doomerwave edits on 90s alternative rock music. YouTuber doomer cave posted their first video on December 7th, 2019, remixing Soundgarden's "Black Hole Sun" and gaining over 80,000 views (shown below, left). On March 9th, 2020, YouTuber doomerismo posted a 54-minute Doomer mix of Radiohead songs, gaining over 160,000 views (shown below, right).
