슈퍼마켓Yes! We’re Open (2014) // 식료품groceries

description ‘슈퍼마켓Yes! We’re Open’ was the first album by 식료품groceries, originally released on Dream Catalogue in 2014. The album transforms the mundane experience of shopping into a dreamy, nostalgic soundscape. It’s Mallsoft at its finest; the weekly supermarket shop repackaged as a sonic experience. With its heavy use of chopped-up smooth jazz, muzak, and retail ambiance, the album evokes the surreal feeling of wandering through a fluorescent-lit supermarket lost in your thoughts. Each track feels like a hazy loop from a forgotten era, drenched in reverb and VHS static. As always, we thank you for shopping with us. We are open 24 hours a day for your convenience.

favorite song aisle 1 (earth tones, rectangles, and fake plants)

this simulates my childhood experiences in the philippines entering an impossibly cold grocery store to get stuff. i want a sunkist mango juice pouch with wonder woman on it. it's so cold and i love feeling like a penguin. great music to listen to if you're agoraphobic like me and terrified of going outside, and you want to go to the grocery store. really hypes you up i think to want to go and grab some Produce.


Ghost Music // Lacy Rose

description none

favorite song st. lucy

lacy rose first came into my life in 2013 when i was a black butler RPer and a mutual of mine reblogged creature of the night as a character song... changed my fucking life. and now as an adult with adult money, i own the album for myself !!! yahoo!!! i love classical music and art pop and folklore and mythologies.... and this is for people who love stuff like that too.


Rat Taxi (2024) // Louie Zong

description POV: you're a rat cabbie workin' in the city, and this is your soundtrack

favorite song CHEEZY STREET ft. DANTE NK

my friend peachy recommended this album to me, and their recommendations never ever miss! i LOVE louie zong and am glad that i took the time to listen to a full album of his. i even have it on bandcamp. it's very funky and jazzy and new-york-cabbie, and very vivid in the picture that it paints!!! i would use the rat taxi every day if i could. this soundtrack is just that cool, i guess.


Vegetable Soul (2021) // Louie Zong and the Good Seeds

description wholesome snippets of soul, fresh from the vine. made with all-natural ingredients. nourish your ears today!

favorite song may fields and lentil we meet again

this is the first louie zong album ive listened to and MAN was it good! the entire time i was listening to this, all i could think about was a.) my busted plantasia cassette and b.) that my dad would LOVE this album, since this is right up his alley. very funky and cool, wonderful to listen to while working on your thesis relaxing. i was never much of an instrumentals person until i started actually giving it a chance (and until i started listening to stuff i actually liked rather than forcing myself to listen to stuff i didn't, but everyone else seemed to like it). louie zong you did it again!!!
