CITY POP AND FISH MY TWO FAVORITE THINGS!!!

[@ellec7188]

Just wait till you hear about popcorn fish :o

[@XxThatGuyOverTherex1]

​@@PyroMoopserWould you rather city flavored pop or fish flavored pop?

[@sugarpeprrr7532]

ahhh me too!!!

[@idontknowwhereimgoingbutim5238]

i found my people

[@permasneeze6977]

SAME

[@mileshill7196]

You can’t do this to me, I still haven’t stopped listening to Rat Taxi!

[@BecLopez-f8w]

greatness overload I understand 💀

[@poweroffriendship2.0]

A City Pop album about fishes is just as delightful as a smell of the ocean breeze. Aquarium City (the first song) gives me Caseopia vibes.

[@mr.ravioli6793]

It definetly reminds me of "take me"

[@Gamemaster64]

It reminds me a lot of Masayoshi Takanaka as well. I love jazz fusion

[@kyleboddy5711]

I was going to say the same thing for Caseopia. It's high energy chill.

[@joshuakirkham9593]

I remember Aquarium City. $25 dollars entry fee, but it included 2 free (aquatic only) rides and a Aqua-Cola.

[@Garwik]

Put this on while I rode my motorcycle to the beach. Absolutely lovely.

[@kristenapostol6288]

That's the dream, man.

[@Lemonnitenite]

Man I wish that were me

[@RyleOswald]

"Don't tap on the glass." THEN WHY IS IT SUCH A BANGER?

[@dracotoy]

A CITY POP ALBUM??? we eatin good today It was 10/10 as usual

[@slowbro1337]

Reminds me of Masoyoshi Takanaka, very nice. Quite enjoyed mackerel minute

[@NukaColaLight]

Same, very sunny album ~

[@LucidButtonMasher]

i thought the same, suspiciously so. then the next song at 20:21 sounds like the exact riff from Takanaka's Sexy Dance at 1:13 in that video. Very....similar

[@Pedro_Larroza]

The way Louie understands the essence of each genre and distills it in compositions with his own signature - that are, also, absolute BOPS - will never not blow my mind.

[@ZAAALLGO]

Noooo waaaaay. My favorite artist branching out into my favorite genre.

[@mateo0123]

they mix together so well too!

[@cyankoopa8111]

He's done one before too! Breezy Slide, a collab with BDG.

[@zabrina1019]

Perfect soundtrack for working at an oceanographic institute!

[@Obsessive_cartoon_drawer]

City pop has slowly become one of my favorite genres, it’s like my 2 favorite genres, jazz and rock had an awesome baby

[@neptunite5973]

the first song / aquarium city is literally SO GOOD!!! perfect summer vibes

[@tag3434]

Masayoshi takanaka vibes, perfect. hope it comes in CD/Vinyl in the future

[@DoranSteven]

A soundtrack like this could save the most God-forsaken Sonic game

[@maromania7]

I'm trying to catch up on your discography and it's like trying to swim upstream, 10/10 would continuously get swept away by citypop again

[@SephoWepho]

This would work so well as a video game soundtrack; just play a different one of these tracks depending on where you are/what you're doing in aquarium city, and it would fill everything with so much life. The vibes would be incredible.

[@softy5447]

CALLED IT, he set himself in motion making those 2 sea themed moog synth tracks

[@Jaynautic]

absolutely NAILED the city pop sound. straight from japan in the 80s

[@Saucy2112]

Man... I just love Louie Zong,. The art, music, and vibe of this album just entirely slaps.

[@dl_supertroll]

I'm a simple man, I see sunfish I like

[@RKutha]

mola mola mola

[@paulaschmaula]

well marry me then

[@arex7559]

I can't believe it's called sunfish in English... In Italy it's moon fish (pesce luna). Why is everything so confusing

[@kai_surfs7701]

@@arex7559 They look like the moon sorta, and they float up at the surface of the sea with the sun. They're called Mola Mola because they mola mola.

[@webeweird2438]

I love them! The fact that their scientific name (mola mola) translates to ‘millstone millstone’ is so silly!

[@McgurganatorZX_Live]

I love how the animated album cover looks how I remember webpages feeling back once upon a time. Excellent job and keep it up!

[@DarkMage_scrab]

I'm fully convinced this year has some of Louie's best releases. I absolutely love the genre choice and how this album flows!!!

[@wxlurker]

Gonna listen to this as I do my aquarium water change 🕺 🐟 💃

[@Lemonnitenite]

What type of fishies ya got ?

[@_itsmissing]

i really appreciate that you captured the vibe of the genre and gave it your own spin without it sounding just like a pastiche of one or two big citypop artists' sounds. real funky stuff!

[@ruthmussar246]

city pop has always been my "sound of the summer" :)

[@geenstagni1060]

Deep down, I always knew Louie would release the most banger city pop album ever - 🐟

[@samanthaw.6929]

The chillness of these tunes is off the charts.

[@CVerse]

Takanaka’s All of Me hit big on KZbin. We gotta get this one to grow too!

[@themistermaniacal]

goddamn i just love city pop Japanese jazz fusion so funkin much

[@Skittleshere]

I hops you know ive been wanting a song just for eels, i love eels so much so i appreciate every part of this album Eels are so cool 😝

[@gulliblepenguin27]

Man I can't believe how consistenly Louie puts out bangers

[@vengefulharmony1188]

I've listened to this so many times in the two weeks it's been out. Lovely work! I've been following your music for quite some time and a city pop album is right up my alley. You mimicked the sound super well.

[@judy7034]

wow the algorithm did a great job ! I love your songs thanks a lot !

[@eugene-p2t]

Sir, 3:52 DOLPHIN DESTINY is Threateningly good...

[@lich4109]

I love your stuff Louie incredibly creative and bangers non stop ✨🐟

[@codacoffee3679]

8:49 that lick! 👀

[@conurbicho97]

Aaaah Louie!!! Sos genial, nunca decepcionaaaas. Ily sm❤❤❤

[@idavid8391]

This album cover is so stylish and cool. Your creativity continually impresses, Louie! Can't wait to share this with my one friend who is OBSESSED with city pop.

[@FlOotch]

It’s my birthday and this is exactly my vibe! Thank you for making my day!!!

[@PenCatStudio]

Little late, but I hope u had a fantastic b-day :]>

[@nintenplsdont128]

the variation on the breezy slide intro lick around 1:06 is crazy good

[@simplesmiles3530]

Oh heck yeah! Some Zong songs are just what I needed to lift my spirits from this week. Ohh~ and the vibes are immaculate~💗💃🏼

[@rocksrntpeople8869]

This is a prime example of why I instantly click on any new albums from you! You are legit one of my favorite artists right now. Keep it up!!✨

[@PoorPumperSociety]

Need a vinyl of this 😮‍💨

[@laimfunk]

Your work always blows me away man. Fantastic job by you and the other musicians who helped on this album.

[@doodies9702]

The album cover makes it all. Music is great ! (thank u louies're the best)

[@spoon7053]

such good summer vibes. i don’t want the summer to end

[@tiramusubi]

Oh man, I love your music and I LOVE city pop. This caught my ears and my heart; hook, line, and sinker.

[@Vailskibum]

So good!!!

[@thisismychannel4535]

Amazing, please create more stuff. 👌👌👍👍

[@driprappy]

Eel Express gives me Custom Robo funky vibes. I love it. I discovered you through RAT TAXI, but i love your style.

[@MoonGoblin]

Beautiful work! Amazing job Louie 👍

[@Jonks1224]

For me, the dolphin destiny portrays the sad reality of how dolphins and orcas alike are cruelly captured to be kept in Aquariums under unfavorable conditions.

[@danmartinezrobles5765]

OMG NEW LOUIE ALBUM ?????? YOU MADE MY FRIDAY AT WORK BETTER OMG THNKS

[@kasonjm]

I was not expecting to see a Louie Zong city pop album but I'm so here for it!

[@fishsticxz]

i'm completely obsessed with aquarium city

[@squidmcbumbleberry2766]

Super nice I really dig Dolphin destiny and Gift Shop

[@BurtonBrewster]

YO!! I loved Breezy Slide and this has the same vibe. Thanks Louie!

[@WolfWalrus]

Exactly what i needed on a hot friday evening in summer.

[@cheychc]

LOVELY ALBUM AND ART. THANK YOU FOR THE AMAZING MUSIC

[@MaxTheSwagMasterC]

i can feel the takanaka dripping from this album, love it

[@mikomakowski7907]

Now this is a “Hey, come on, MOVE!” playlist Only I don’t want this to stop ever, it’s just so good

[@Fafnerluver922]

This is such a great album! Dolphin Destiny is instantly one of my favorites!

[@abercrombierye3483]

4:22 Dolphin Destiny: I knew our love was as deep as the the blue, Barbara, but we were two nautical worlds apart and so with with blubbering sorrow I told her the sad, half ton truth. "We were not meant to be, Barbara Manatee. though our lives must go on, but as I promised to a zong, a long time ago, I will dolphin-ish what I started, serving humanity over manatee. Go now my beloved and seize your own destiny!" - Dolson the Dolphin.

[@NotDr.Evil137]

I heard she doesn't speak french 🤔

[@abercrombierye3483]

​@@NotDr.Evil137 She was desperate to go the ball, there ought to have been someone to fit the bill.

[@alabasterindigo]

I've been listening to a LOT of Masayuki Suzuki this year and I can't help imagining him singing over this. Some of your most brilliant work yet Louie!!! 🏖🐟🌴

[@Magnico0]

Pretty Takanaka, loved it!

[@Station_Master_13]

Two of my many interests blended perfectly

[@glutenfreebees]

thank you for these new bangers 🫡 I’ve been preparing for this moment by listening to even more Takanaka than usual

[@TuberculosisRose]

yesss, i have been wishing for a city pop album!! Tuna Turnpike gives me big Masayoshi Takanaka vibes

[@BecLopez-f8w]

Just got to Dolphin Destiny, I screamed out loud when I saw this relatively new release because I haven't been able to go online as often and I'm so glad I caught this, awesome music as always!

[@Oxtorayk]

i'm pretty sure Louie's day is 48h long, how else could he be so awesome so often!?

[@mangomaking]

Catering directly to me with this album!!!!!!!! Listening obsessively!!!

[@woodlice]

This is one of your best albums yet!

[@RobinsTaste]

The whole album goes to my playlist on spotify! Love it!

[@weebtrashtvt6657]

I always love finding these random city pop playlists on my feed but then I check the creator AND ITS MADE BY LOUIE ZHONG WHAT A GREAT DAY!!😆😆😁

[@TheDolphinTuna]

You really captured the genre well, but it still has that Louie Zong flair that we all know and love

[@moonbug711]

Louie Zong putting out another banger!

[@irenoia]

star trek the voyage home soundtrack if they werent cowards and did a couples date to the aquarium + drive through the city on a convertible montage scene between kirk and spock

[@litty4913]

Couldn't be any better love it !!!!!!

[@miligonzalez4697]

You always make the best albums Louie!!

[@AlienDude51]

LOUIE ZONG I LOVE YOU

[@skittering]

casiopea vibes, love it

You're a bloody genius and this album is so good

[@fite-4-ever876]

louie zong is killin it lately

[@Goatsee]

Soothing tunes to get lost in Tokyo to

[@leonardotakanashi333]

Woooow, this jazz fusion sounds in City Pop are so beatiful!! This synths are cooking too🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@le0xXhu]

You just made my summer even better with this 🤧

[@devinbrice991]

As a fish/internet culture artist and enthusiast, I cant express the joy this brings me

[@dmon007]

Citypop + Louie Zong?! My. Man. Thank you.

[@bagindasubur]

this is so good..!!!!! modern city pop and japanese fusion

[@spippyflipling]

Good stuff as always. It's quite fun to recognize parts of songs that you took inspiration from and then took your own spin on.

[@an_annoying_cat]

flying fish funk for sure was inspired by hi-ya! on masayoshi takanaka's alone

[@DemonRenamon]

Unironically my favorite yet, will ABSOLUTELY be blasting this on my beach trip. Thank you so much!!

[@xXpuddleduckXx]

Louie you are a huge creative inspiration!!! I always feel the itch to boot up Blender or mess around on the piano when I see your art. Keep it up :D

[@whytophat]

Holy mackerel this is amazing

[@KeenanMaistry]

Great work on this! KOF always has the greatest drip that is very traditional meets street wear. I really hope the Max Impact characters come back in the 2D games, their designs were top notch, even if their games weren't.

[@JustSomeMustard]

This is one of Mustard's favorite releases of the year. They thank you for making this.

[@Dankcarton]

Gift Shop and Flying Fish Funk gotta be two favorites

[@valshaped]

These tracks are unreasonably groovy.

[@atomgatherer]

was feeling fishy, now I'm feeling funky fresh. :3
