On wax? There are a lot of recent albums getting pressed and on Qrates right now, but the "classics" as you say are few and far between. Off the top of my head, the ones that are out there that I'd recommend are as follows (in no particular order):
Mac Plus - Floral Shoppe
Catsystem Corp - Palm Mall, Shopping @ Helsinki, Hiraeth
Vaperror - Mana Pool
Surfing - Deep Fantasy
2814 - s/t, Birth of a New Day
St Pepsi & Luxury Elite - Late Night Delight
St Pepsi - Hit Vibes
II nothing ll - Modern Living
Tanning Salon - Dream Castle
Some of these, like Tanning Salon and the 2814s, are more vapor ambient and Surfing is almost like a vapor indie band. There is also some future funk stuff that's very popular right now, but I don't think of it as vaporwave though they often get lumped in together. Of course, there are loads more great albums on cassette and digital but that's a different story. Hope that helps.
There's a big difference between winging it and seeing what happens. Now let's go see what happens.
