Term coined by Carles of Hipster Runoff referring to a style of music that emerged in Summer 2K9 primarily from the Brooklyn music scene. Chillwave generally features a fuzzy sound with a slow but steady pulse-beat that hearkens back to 1980's pop culture; it may sound like the radio being played [in the car] during an episode of Miami Vice recorded on a crappy VHS tape and played back after said tape's been melting in the attic for a few years. Although it can be either [electronic] or markedly lo-fi, lyrical and sonic themes hinge [nostalgically] on a longing for lazier times and may or may not involve references to inert romance or drug use.
