Ladies and Gentlemen, an underrated song by LAr'c~En~Ciel, White Feathers.

quite nice

Just wanna post some new stuffs

Summer pop jam is here!!!
Kimura Kaela - OLE!OH!



Itano Tomomi - Crush
Too much auto-tune for my liking.

Was listening to Aimer's new album, Midnight Sun just now and how could I have missed this song?

RE:I AM is amazingggg

Will probably post a very brief review of the album after I finished listening, I'm still stuck at RE:I AM lol...

SCANDAL - Your Song (B-side)

Hahahaha I really am starting to see that you like strong beats in a song!!

Re: I Am for me was just okay (No OFFENSE! just a personal opinion ) I mean the starting of it was powerful and energetic (LOVED the starting chorus!!!) but (imho) the music blanded out throughout the rest of the song So it isn't in my list of constant replays teehee~~ Since I like her slower ballad songs...I think her voice is more suitable for slow but powerful songs...

Off the whole track, I loved these tracks best:

Track #2: Sleeping Forest
Track #3: Wings of July
Track #7: Melody of a Little Star
Track #12: Iris

Track #6: AM03:00 and Track #11 have quite catchy beats (Very similar to Utada Hikaru's style of music!!) I find myself listening to once or twice again every now and then

OMG You should listen to her English ver. of StarRingChild in the new album "UnChild" released alongside Midnight Sun..It is efin EPIC.



View more of the UnChild details and tracklist HERE.

I have a soft spot for pop/rock influence songs xDD I like the ending part of the song, idk why Sounds very liberating.
I have that UnChild too, some of the english are kind of hard to listen to but I appreciate the effort. I think I prefer original Japanese lyrics for some songs unless the singers have fluent english (MiChi, Monkey Majik etc)

Yes I agree I get where you're coming from True and I sort of really had hoped they left "Because We Are Tiny In This World" as an instrumental original because i thot the music was really nice in the beginning!! True, it was good with Aimer in it giving it a more uplifting feels to the song, but I would've LOVED just hearing the instrumentals ver. of it only

Oh well, back to SUMMMMMMER MODE!!!!

I know this one is kinda oldie, but DAMN I STILL LOVE LISTENING TO THIS WHEN SUMMER IS HERE!!!



NS Yoon G - I Am Hot

Ok, I think I’m gonna do this in a more organized way. Will try my best to post new releases every week from now on.

This week’s update 7/2/14



Some big titles namely Ayumi Hamasaki, miwa, Itano Tomomi’s debut, Asian Kung-Fu Generation, moumoon and Kimura Kaela’s compilation albums.
I haven’t had the chance to listen to Ayu’s album in full (heard most of the leaks before this but not with the flow yet so I will reserve my opinion until I hear it in order). From the list so far, I’m liking Up Up Girls’ single. They’ve been under my radar for a while but not like how I follow Morning Musume ’14. This single is surprisingly good. Even I wish MM ’14 or Tsunku will incorporate this kind of EDM in some of MM’s songs.

Up Up Girls – Zenryouku! Pump Up!!/ Kono Melody wo Kimi to


Another release that deserves attention is Shishido Kavka’s Dame Kashira? It’s a digital single so there’s no B-side or whatnot. However, this is a pretty solid song. I love how she fused pop/rock and make it into such a lively summer-ish pop jam.
https://soundcloud.com/shireley-yeo/shishido-kavka

Miwa’s single is okay. It’s obviously made for summer but it feels lacking. The B-side, Let me Go however is slightly better. I appreciate the orchestra instrumental version of the A-side too. Funny how I like it more than the actual song.

Wasn’t planning on listening to Itano Tomomi’s debut but I heard it’s pretty interesting so I’ll give it a shot. Kyary’s album leaked a week earlier btw. Will listen to it tonight.


As for the compilation albums, I’ve only heard AKFG’s Nano Mugen. I like Flower by Lostage (will dig this band up), Owl City’s Beautifultimes and several more. On the contrary, I felt AKFG’s own song, Standard isn’t as good as their previous songs. Here’s to hoping they’ll release a new album soon.

Fairies subunit M-Three released PV for their single Your Love.



EXILE - NEW HORIZON



FEMM - Kiss the Rain



I totally would've mistaken FEMM (Far East Mention Mannequins) as a Western duo instead of Japanese.

Introducing another female pop/rock artist - Yasuha Kominami. She started out as an indie artist in 2010. She has a very distinct singing method/vocal so that might turn people off if they don't like that. I've grown used to it
Just released an EP called Toshi Densetsu Club. It's got only 4 tracks but I really like it overall. My fav track is Dream Box, which you can hear below. The 2-min short version (PV) doesn't do it justice. It's such a beautiful and bittersweet track.

NO-MAN is not bad either plus the opening track's got nice hooks.
