Physical Releases
芬氣い愛 by FarragoL (Limited Edition 12” Vinyl (Clear Red))
The music is classic vaporwave which but what stands out is that album art on the vinyl. The reds with this harsh contrast black and muted feelings. It’s beautiful. Straight inspiration album art work. Too bad I already spent all my music money for the month. It\’s in pre-order for a limited time, I recommend grabbing it.
Plaza Holográfica by power_lunch corporation (limited edition cassette)
“A re-imagining of the enigmatic epic HOLOGRAM PLAZA performed by 10 of mallsoft’s most visionary contemporaries.”
Кохання на берегах Таїланду by THIRDWORLD DREAMPLACE (~ cassette tape ~)
The album art makes it look like a cool party while the music is split between two ambient tracks. Limited cassettes available.
新しい方法 by 幻 想 風 景 (~ cassette tape ~)
Minimal ambient vapor at its best. Limited cassettes available.
Digital Releases
Enjoy Yourself 10th Anniversary Special (Live from Tampa Bay, FL: February 2nd, 2023) // DMT-752 by Love Ranger & Little Mac Tonight
I think this is a concept album of a live show featuring various artists and labels in the year 2023. How this form of media would be received in those years one can only guess but I almost feel like bootleg VHS copies being passed around are the best format to listen to this.
我在這裡 by 夢想的頻道
the story of love that was quickly taken away and the music that has followed. Why does love have to be so cruel to the best of us. Although only 3 tracks are available at this time, it’s still a very beautiful listen. I’m excited for the full release. I hope it get’s a minidisc like album あなたのために.
Mergers by Elegance of the Damned x Wei
very minimal EDM blending into electronic shoe gaze. Which I didn’t know was a thing. Decent for background music.
100% Electronicon Mix Tape
So turns out someone ripped the free cassette that came with going to 100% Electronicon. It can now be listened to here.
