Mallsoft popped into my head when reading this too. Basically mallsoft is a sub genre of vaporwave which is Ambient / electronic music with a focus on evoking and creating nostalgia. mallsoft is a sub genre because it focuses on the nostalgia of an empty shopping mall.
Vaporwave etc is absolutely fascinating.
It's also dead now.
