猫 シ Corp – Palm Mall Mars (2018)

March 1, 2024

Another fantastic piece of work by Cat System Corp. Perhaps not as iconic as News At 11, but no less enjoyable or brilliant for it, Palm Mall Mars is a solid hour of the chillest of the chill vaporwave, at least in the original form and aesthetic of vaporwave. I’m no expert, but other artists have taken the genre in far more ambient and space-out directions. Palm Mall Mars is similar, but retains the dream-like, treacle-pace of vaporwave and it’s hallmarks such as slushed up beats, TV commercial motifs and just the general feeling that you are looking into a gigantic mall from the past, when times were better and everything was cheaper haha
