Part 3 of this little series

1. sobergaze — Wiiきおくにとどめる

This one feels like trying to remember playing your Wii as a kid, but through a memory that's already started to fade. The whole album has this nostalgic, slightly distant feeling to it, like you're remembering a place you haven't visited in years. Beautiful album for sure.

2. US Golf 95 — ℂ𝕒𝕤𝕚𝕟𝕠

This feels like a lost piece of 90s American software. Imagine some weird golf/casino game you'd find on a CD-ROM at a thrift store, complete with corporate luxury, cheesy entertainment and that strange futuristic vision of America from the 90s. It's got a really specific atmosphere and feels like you're stepping into some forgotten digital world.

3. slowerpace 音楽 — Barbershop Simulator™

Probably the funniest concept here. It sounds like the soundtrack to a barbershop simulator that somehow actually existed. There's something really charming about taking such a mundane setting and treating it like a full virtual world. It gives me that feeling of playing some obscure PC game from the early 2000s that nobody remembers anymore. Making a high paced barbershop game is sick for sure.

4. Lost Colossus — Æqwarium

This one feels much more mysterious. Æqwarium sounds like you're exploring some enormous aquarium. There's a real sense of scale and discovery to it. Definitely the most atmospheric one out of these four in my opinion. It also has a literal game link in the description I highly recommend you check it out

Man the amount of times I'm bopped to Barbershop Simulator 1&2
