As everyone else has said, "aquatic ambience", "LEASE" etc have been heavily overused. What I think would be a very good candidate for "Frutiger" music is ambient artist Hiroshi Yoshimura. Despite his music dating from the 80s/90s, they all have an airy, serene and "sleek" sound that would fit very ...

I lived in couple of places in my life so far. Always in cities but varying in size.
All my teenage years I spent in Wrocław, Poland. About 700k people, totally love the place. It's well connected, close to interesting sites, bars and restaurants have an immaculate vibe. Most importantly - my best ...

I also discovered a company called Polyconcept that used to make a lot of cheap, gimmicky retro products from the below video. It seems like the modern-day advent of cheap "retro" audio equipment started in the 90s/2000s.

Theres other things heres a more weird and personal one.
When I was younger a lot of the shit I had, watched, and played with was old like in ~2017 ...

People keep mentioning the phones. I strongly agree here, specifically their software/visual layout. I've been dying to get my hands on a functioning Sony Ericsson or what have you (I've unsuccessfully tried multiple times to revive the one that was given to me as a kid, which I did nothing with but ...

I found this video shouting out the forum and immediately joined.

Same. I was drawn by the OS-tans on the banner.

I was searching around sketchy sites on clearnet and found someone who had a bone to pick with this forum for some reason and they posted the link. They seemed to be offended by the anemoia. I don't care about that, I just wanted to find a chill forum with nice people that I can chat with when I'm ...
