I always go back to signalwave/broken transmission, utopian virtual, and slushwave. What about you?

Mallsoft

I'm a fan of pretty much all the sub-genres, but my favorites are mallsoft/late-night/luxury/jazzy.

Here are a few albums that have been in my rotation lately:

ΩMEGA MALL X by Limousine
슈퍼마켓Yes! We’re Open by 식료품groceries
Requiem For Malls: A Day At Work by Trademarks & Copyrights
luxury paradise by vcr-c
贅沢な休暇 by M A T A
购物者天堂Welcome to the Mall! by コディ
daydream pleasures by 死夢VANITY

I haven't kept up with all the latest subgenres, but I guess I'd say Vaportrap. And whatever subgenre you'd call Esprit

Kinda a mallsoft guy myself.

I haven’t heard of some of those. What are your favorite artists from those subgenres?

Telepath for slushwave Sport3000 for signalwave

Still me from Beehaw btw. Beehaw defederated from lemmy.world so I made an account over here.

I love Telepath's Eternity album, particularly the track "Joining". If that's slushwave, then I love slushwave

Yup, sounds like you're in. Check out Desert Sands Feel Warm at Night for more but from a different artist.

The age of global capitalism approaches its zenith. As the world fades into oblivion, all that remains is fluid ads and ethereal longing. Our senses, liberated from flesh, ascend endless escalators through immaculate synthetic realms - post-human, hyperreal, chemically enhanced, both consumer and consumed in a ceaseless economy of sensory data, pixelated and prized. Enter the Virtual Plaza, where you too will be embraced by its neon glow.
