Floral Shoppe (フローラルの専門店) is a cult studio album by the American
electronic musician under the one-time alias Macintosh Plus, released
on December 9, 2011. Since then, Floral Shoppe has been considered to
be the defining album of the Vaporwave style and been heralded as one
of the most significant albums in the early days of vaporwave.
In a retrospective review, Adam Downer of Sputnikmusic characterized
the album as "constantly—and delightfully—unsettling" and "a beautiful
the record that's both warm and strange, nostalgic and futuristic, bizarre
and totally simple." Writing for Pitchfork, Miles Bowe concluded,
"Nothing could change or improve its sound which, even after thousands
of soundalikes, has lost none of its perception-shattering power."
Vice (Noisey) included Floral Shoppe in their ranking of the 100 best
albums of the 2010s.
