Description

Chi-Ching Records

The Isuzu Piazza (also known as the Isuzu Impulse in the United States and the Holden Piazza in Australia) is a small, sporty 3-door liftback coupé that was manufactured by Isuzu from 1981 to 1992 in two generations. It is considered today to be one of the rarest 80's/90's era automobiles

いすゞ・ピアッツァENTERPRISES is one of his alias for 猫 シ Corp, the Vaporwave’s most infamous fruitful producers, and this album has been re-released by Chi-Ching Records in pro recording version. Needless to say this release is been in the pipeline for a while and we're super happy to announce it's imminent arrival. 14 tracks formed the cruising vibe -Nostalgia Japanese vehicle commercial voice over and smooth rhythm throughout – resulting in an intriguing and spontaneous mix of the producers interest in finding a proper standard vaporwave night-driving theme. With specialised [sic] in 80s mall shopping and elevator music, you can also catch the soulful and truly relaxation from Tape A to Tape B.

Geometric Lullaby

The 猫 シ Corp. 'Selected Works' presents some deep cuts and long-overdo [sic] classic releases from vaporwave legend, 猫 シ Corp.!

The music on this album was originally released on a cassette tape that came with the purchase of a new Isuzu Piazza car. At least, that’s what I want you to believe…

The album is a little tongue-in-cheek joke and an ode to all the vaporwave artists who made music about car brands and those who agree that ‘real cars don’t have curves’. I wanted to create an alias to see how it got picked up by the audience but some people immediately recognized it was me! But that obviously did not kill the fun, I think it’s a great (some what obscure) album for fans of classic vaporwave.
