Through blatant commercialization of sounds and images of classical antiquity mashed with cheap products, North Point Mall is right here for you to -what else- ...BUY!!!

It was in 2014 when VHS Dreams™ set to dismantle the capitalist ideal with his first Vaporwave EP, a satirical take on our culture of blatant consumerism and decadence. Now North Point Mall opens its doors again for a special re-issue. New cover designs and revisions of the tracks that fully represent the artist's original vision, it brings the consumerist mall of the alternate 1995 crashing into your world once again. In this corporate parallel universe everything is destined for one thing only: consumption! To consume is to exist! Corporations rule the world, material luxuries are brought to every social class, capitalism has reached its ideal form. But is everyone really happy, or is happiness another product too?
Visit the North Point Mall once again and grab your shopping bags, cause it's time for consumerist society to consume itself. Available on anniversary edition cassette and digital download! Meet you at the plaza! 一年前、VHS夢は彼の最初のVaporwave EP、露骨な消費者と退廃の私たちの文化の風刺テイクと資本主義の理想を解体するように設定™...しかし、彼は資本主義だけ強くなった...失敗しました。ここ一年後、VHS夢™はノースポイントモールの再発行のために、大量消費の神とステージに戻ります。新しいカバーデザインと完全にアーティストのオリジナルのビジョンを表すトラックの改正は、それが1995年の別の超大量消費モールが再び私たちの世界に激突します。消費：この企業の並列宇宙の万物は一つのことだけのために運命づけられています！消費するために存在することです！企業が世界を支配、贅沢は、すべての社会階級にされる、資本主義は、その理想的なフォームに達しています。しかし、本当に幸せな誰ですか？ もう一度ノースポイントモールを訪問し、それは大量消費社会が自分自身を消費するための時間だ原因、あなたのショッピングバッグをつかみます。あなたの贅沢な楽しみのためのコレクターカセットとデジタルDLで利用可能！

"I always do my shopping at North Point Mall!" ~Another Satisfied Customer
In this corporate parallel universe of 1995, everything is destined for one thing only: consumption. To consume is to exist. Corporations rule the world, luxuries are brought to every social class, capitalism has reached its apex form. Everyone lives in this corporate utopia. Everyone is happy... or are they?
1995年のこの企業のパラレルユニバースでは、すべてが1つの目的、つまり消費のみに向けられています。 消費することは存在する。 企業は世界を支配し、贅沢はすべての社会階級にもたらされ、資本主義は頂点の形に達しています。 誰もがこの企業のユートピアに住んでいます。 誰もが幸せですか...彼らですか？
