Decided to make a sequel to the original I know the photos have people in them, but there are not many photos of empty malls online its not perfect but I hope you enjoy.
I think I finally get why Muzak is so prevalent, even though people say they hate it at some point you learn to appreciate it and enjoy it. It taps into a spot in your mind where everything is comforting and ok
That is very well said. Elevator music, I don't think, is there to make you "rock out." It's there to tell you all is OK and comforting. I just ripped off your quote! But it's true
Someday one of these super rich dudes is going to open a super market and/or mall and have it totally set up retro 1975. Of course this music would play all day. I'd shop there all the time. Don't think I'd be the only one.
@@thehighlanders607 In Wayne, NJ around 1975, they had The Wayne Hills Mall. It was rather small, but cool. And Willowbrook Mall. They were big. If we could go back, you could go
After over two years of restrictions and lockdowns, the wait is finally over. The stores are finally being restocked, and in a few minutes a large sign will be placed outside saying "Yes, we're open!" with hungry customers eagerly waiting to fulfill their true purpose: Consume. These are the sounds from an empty mall preparing for its first opening post-pandemic.
Lockdowns were a joke. They did that based on nothing. They claimed it was "science" but it was more $¢i€n¢€. Your body tell you pretty quick when you're sick. The test and the masks were an even bigger joke.
Where the hell do you live where malls do anything but shut down? All 5 major malls in my area are defunct. The only mall is geared toward high end international tourists. The mall rat is extinct.
Sadly most of these mall are either abandoned or knocked down I've seen where people video themselves walking through these vacant places. I really miss these days growing up I truly believe that we were blessed to have experienced those times 🤔
I am happy to say that I have reached a time in life that I really appreciate the wonderful melodies of muzak and its mental reflection of the past. I guess in some ways it is the past that reproofs our future knowing what the future holds and weather it is beneficial to the emotions of our Hearts... Oh to go back in time.
More malls becoming liminal. Not many consumers are bringing traffic to stores like they use to just a couple of decades ago. Still, it leaves a memory within all of us.

Unfortunately in my country the mall don't have music like that. House, reggaeton or top 40 song, i wish go to somewhat american cities who have beatiful music like this.
6:20 to 9:20 Westland Mall, Westland Mi circa early, mid 70s No the Mall wasn't named for the city- the city was named for the Mall! That's how important and integral mall culture was 60s-90s. Loved hitting the Kresge on the left during the 70s as a kid, for toy and hobby stuff, and candy. Raimi's on the right was run by the parents of Sam Raimi, the Spiderman, etc, director. Bought a lot of shoes at that Thom McCann next to Raimis. Westland had a good arcade in the basement area during the 80s with all the classics of the Golden Age. Cut my teeth on Moon Patrol and Joust there. Sorry for the Screen name, picked it before Baldwin's, err umm, issues 😅
With the filter? Or just the playlist itself? I recorded it to a cassette tape to get it to sound like this, but I have all the separate songs in a playlist somewhere
My only question is why is this only 18:57 long?!?!?! The first one was 38 mins and I didn't want it to end!!!!! Please make another one of these and longer!!!!
