A sweet Lounge and Shibuya-kei inspired album with cute instrumentals all through.
Three years ago today, I released Strawberry Cake for the first time. A Shibuya-kei and Picopop inspired Bossa Nova tune I made as a homage to artists such as Nagisa Cosmetic and early Capsule, since I loved that sound so much.
This song seems to have gotten mildly popular, being used as background music by a couple of big youtubers, such as Slimecircle who used it for 1.5 seconds on his Bowser's Fury vid. But most notably it was used on zamsire's "eggdog board meeting", which is a great video, go watch it.
I think it's now my biggest contribution to the internet as it has technically been listened to a couple millions of times by many people without them realizing it.
I find pretty bizarre that a song that was just a direct attempt at producing something from a genre that is very niche and little known and heavily divorced from what you tipically hear made on Beepbox ended up getting more attention than the very genre that inspired it...
...So, if you like this sound, I encourage you to check out Shibuya-kei and Picopop. Capsule's works from 2002 - 2005 and anything that appeared on the Contemode V.A. compilations. It's largely sweet 2000s lounge general MIDI goodness and was the basis for my style for a long time.
The tracks on this album were largely made between 2021 and 2022. The first prototype of this album was finished all the way back in September of last year. But only now I'm getting to releasing this officially. So cool I'm finally posting this
My friends Subicat and 13Js have made their own arrangements of the song, so I featured them both here. Please check out their stuff. Subi is making soundtracks for object shows and 13Js has worked with David on Electric Jungle Critters back in '88. Their Soundcloud pages were listed next to the tracklist.
The characters on the cover art are Nobo (me!) and Skibble (that green dude). They're both tanukis! I drew and designed both covers. I draw SHIT!! @sinewavy on twitter.
Enjoy!!!

Listening to nobonoko's music is like swimming in a pool letting the water fall on my head ignoring the other people at the mall and security telling me to get out of the fountan they don't Get It i'm living my best life unburdened by social presures and expectations and they would never Get It

reminds me of these stuffs,, nintendo, tamagochi and mario moments in 90s.
Playing this every morning from now on, on my bus commute to make my student life feel like a happy little Nintendo game
I loved it so much that I sponsored and downloaded two tracks! Thank you!
i woke up to a government debt this music really got me through being on hold for half an hour just to be told they want me to call a different number even tho the number i called was the one listed to be called about the debt. Thanks for this music.

"Instructions unclear, set fire to the Federal Reserve while listening to Strawberry on repeat, please hang up and try again"
sometimes youtube reccomendations delivers fun surprises every now and then, this is one of them. i really like the sodamachinemix mix, too
An amazing album based on an amazing song
I asked my teacher to play the album in class and everytime liked it and trust me it's really hard to make all of us to agree on something

PIZZICATO!!!!!!! I DON'T THINK I'VE EVER HEARD THE FULL VERSION!!! i love this song so much, it's so nostalgic to me 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺it makes me so happy to hear it again

This music is so nice ⭐😺 I couldn't find ideal music to concentrate and this one helps me a lot and even doesn't bore me like other instrumental sounds.
I NEED IT ON MY SPOTIFY SO BAD 😭
You know, I've recently got to this channel and somehow your music reminds me of Mario Galaxy in some way, it is really relaxing while also being somewhat goofy. I don't know, I love it 💗
This made me so happy that i own a teddy bear
i want a vinyl disc or a cassette tape of this‼
idk why but 8:38 gives me crazy virbank city nostalgia, like what i remembered it sounding like (listening back its good but not as good as i thought lol)

Could it be the background synth? It does resemble a bit with Vibrank city theme

The end credits of a good GAME/movie.
So gameish♡ (°u°)/
KZread has been showing me banger small artists and it really slaps. This music was great to program to! Now that I'm done with that I wanna play a game or something, but this music is too good to stop listening now!

I love your music alot! Just wondering if you will consider putting it up on Spotify?
i love the texture of the art. i would like to touch it please lol
this gives me huge nintendogs vibes and I love it
ngl, kinda wished I had a Vinyl of this
This album feels like music that plays in the shop of a funny little animal. Different store, different song, same guy each time.
it's like 2000s anime ost
I'm glad I found a really cute song for my taste.😻😻 What should I do if I want to use the song on my KZread channel?

It's interesting seeing comments here all talking about Nintendo and Mario music but not Italian, Japanese arcade, etc. as descriptors. Relevancy, eh? Anyways good work to the musician(s!) And visual artists. It's hard work
