Yes,Amazing Feelings !

Love the first music too. It immediately triggers my visions when I went into this mall we had in Damansara called The Atria. It was year 1998-2003, I was around 4 years old when I visited in there and the smell from the KFC store is just so aromatic mixed with the chinese restaurant next to it. If you dine in there you could use a jukebox they have in the dining area. You could literally play any music they have in there and using it when I was a kid was such a cool experience!!! I've never seen any jukeboxes anywhere else after that. It had a fountain with weird statues (it was greek as I discovered them now) pouring water at the main entrance. It was LIT. They had arcade centres upstairs which you could use ACTUAL money into the machines. Nowadays you have to exhange money for Tokens. Oh, if you're wondering if all that's true, it looks exactly like this when I went there : visit-malaysia.yinteing.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/atriadamansara.jpg I couldn't really find lots of photos in there but AFAIK they had great cafes and shopping centres inside. Delifrance, Parkson, lot of Japanese stores. Today, Its been rebuilt in 2015 and simply called "Atria" but it never felt the same back when it was built back then. There are no fountains, no colourful walls, no jukebox. All clean and shiny and bright white and silver. Have a great day :)

This is music at its best ...exemplify feelings and emotions at its best ...if only popular music was like this 😊

@@MegaDR34 Weather channel music was on a whole nother level

MegaDR34 fattburger! not fatback! track name’s correct though.

chill out hipster...just good tunes

@0x02 the somber song of a dying empire

I gotta run to the mall now 😊 food court

@@datto240z Let's all chill out, that's what makes up mallsoft and vaporwave; not at it's core but it does add flavor to the genre.

And within the grasp we can realize true freedom.

This and ocean shores "memories of a past life" album are my 2 favorite mallsoft albums of all time

Gotta say how much I love all Your stuff, especially Your Mallsoft albums! This one always makes me feel that special kind of Mallsoft nostalgia. Cannot Wait for Palm Mall 2! Never stop doing what You do!

Please get your music on spotify! I'm burning through all my data listening to your discography via youtube LOL

yooo I need a hard copy of this lol I spent so much time at this mall sometimes when I worked in Helsinki that I was like whoaaaaa when I saw the cover bc I know those staircases

@@ExperimentIV get a Sony stereo Dictaphone, they have line in and you can record all the Mallsoft 😀

Love how you're still going!

Kiitos! :D

Hope you don't mind me asking, but what does the PA announcer lady say at the end of FORUM? It begins at 5:26, do help me if you can, I've been trying to find a translation but I can't find it... Thanks!

@@elsaishere4084 "May I have your attention please! The vehicle with the following license plate Matti Tyyne Iivari 131 has been parked incorrectly and should be moved immediately"

Thank you so so much! Have a good day :)@@Puurokulho

Was not aware that helsinki was a place and not a saying my grandmother had just used in place of hell

For some reason, I feel like Finnish sounds similar to Greek, some of the phonetics and the cadence. Nice to listen to a "Finnish flavored" vaporwave album.

Thx bro!

I found the third sample! It's Joe Sample-Ashes to Ashes

@@dianacrippa3093 Here are almost all the samples, but I still can't identify " 買う@JUMBO [Kauppakeskus] " 0:00 - FORUM 消費者[kuluttaja] = Good News by Fattburger 5:25 - Pelican Self Storage [Tilaa Kaikelle] = Ashes to Ashes by Joe Sample 8:10 - 買う@JUMBO [Kauppakeskus] = [???] 12:30 - 717A バス [Rautatientori] = All Thru the Night by Larry Carlton 15:20 - Hesburger 映画館 [hampurilainen] = Uptown by Lao Tizer 18:25 - 都市フォーラム Consumer [kahvi] = Rejoyce by David Benoit 24:15 - HEL-AMS 飛行機 [lentokentälle] = Local Access by Lunacast

Suomi perkele

thanks for the useful translation

swedish right?

@@daysgo5514 nope, finnish :)

Perkele!

​@@daysgo5514hell no

I go to helsinki many times a year but i don't think i've been to this particular mall, or just don't recognize it from the cover, where is it?

@@marmalade8915 It's called FORUM. It's very central :)

I feel that too. Weird, we would not feel that within even a year ago.

One of the best song in the record too. So memorable

Gonna listen to the song everytime i go there now lmao

Same here! I am about to buy this on vinyl

juu ei hullumpi : D

Näin on

where u from?

Where are u from?

I think so too, really like this album

Yeah I miss that

@Allison Yamada You hit the nail on the head

I love every song on this album, but I am deeply f****I'm in love with the first track for some reason.

It's a Vapor Memory.

@@MikeyAckersVe ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pcToqSO9U4I.html&start_radio=1&t=3&ab_channel=T.L.Davis

That's correct! Sample comes from great cd

猫 シ Corp. Could you specify exact what “great cd” means? Just wondering

@@jamisondinkins7292 I suspect English is not their first language and they simply meant "comes from/off a great CD."

@@smartfart9003 yeah that xD

Naruto?

@@newbyfollome I think its in reference to a video by "The Proper People" where they use the first song as an intro for an abandoned mall and a clip from some old ad. Might just be overthinking it though

One option is the original sample from the first song: Fattburger - Good News ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IHf9T5RN5Dw.html The original is much faster and doesn't have the spacey reverb but still, it's an option.

Thats the trick, as its not noise, its the composition itself, so i dont think there is such version as it would be something different completly ☺

@@Yantryman The original although much faster does not contain the 'mall noises' you hear in corps. track.

I'd love to come to your supermarket ❤❤ Maybe you could get in contact with the artist??

Well, for music with a super duper similar sound, try: -Yacht Rock Breaks 1 & 2 by Camino 84 (free) -Buy Now by Eyeliner (free) -World Class by Luxury Elite (free) -Ocean Beach by 猫 シ Corp. & Stereo Component (free) -인터넷 쇼핑 (Ascension) by 식료품groceries ($5) -Swing Tournament by US Golf 95 (free) -Hiraeth by 猫 シ Corp. (free) - ...With Love 愛を込めて by waterfront dining & 猫 シ Corp. (free) If you choose to play all of those, it comes out to about five and a half hours of supermarket music.

Thank you

Thank you so much! I finally found the sample that used Larry Carlton. Really appreciate it.

I'm still trying to find the song at 8:10

@@one.ebrown Same here.

@@pricture Imma keep searching. And will update you first if I find it.

lol - tell us how you really feel

rox original song please?

Weatherscan Music- Track 15

I used to grow up watching Weatherscan just watching and listening calmly to the sweet atmospheric smooth jazz and electronica with my grandparents.

r0x lifesaver. Holy shite, I needed to know that for the longest time. Thank you.

Same here. I didn't care about the weather at all.

hahahh ))

The Dutch are not what they seem..

hagelslag is truly weird

Everything besides the end of the album is Finnish.

catcorp is IMHO a dutchy, see twitter

Yes CatCorp is dutch, but he worked on this album during his trip to Helsinki

This is a form of vaporwave.

Like a subgenre of it! Kinda like vaporwave and punk wave or whatever it called

It's called mallsoft, a variation of vaporwave. It's genuinely the most sincerely relaxing music in existence, I listen to it constantly 😊

Haha zekers, KLM jwz :p

I flew with KLM from Amsterdam to New York once, and the ending brought me back to that exact moment! Just magical!!!))

Its Finnish lol

@@CatChase957 the part in the end is dutch.

@@TomMKW Everything about the album is Finnish. Weird that the end would be in Dutch

It is there with the title シ ョ ッ プ @ ヘ ル シ ン キ

why dont you like the cover?

It looks nice, but I don’t think it’s very fitting. Maybe I’m wrong and maybe there’s a reason he chose this over a more retro look. This one looks early modern.

Showbiz CEC I suppose vaporwave is now relevant in modern day as opposed to being just defined within the 80’s era.

I think its cause its not fuzzy or dated looking you know that adds to the 'aesthetic'

you should watch dead mall series with this in the background

I'll meet you at Circuit City
