Just have recently discovered this all girl band, Nisennenmondai, formed in 1999 they're more of a danceable, punky, noise, all instrumental band who are somewhat popular outside Japan, especially in the UK.

Interesting tread.

I'll introduce an artist I like.

Name: Candy (キャンディ), CHIHIRO, LOVERSSOUL
Years Active(as Candy): 2005-2007 (under Avex) and then 2008 as an indie.
Years Active(as CHIHIRO): 2008-present

Fun Facts:
- Second PV stared Perfume members as backup dancers as well as Komatsu Ayaka
- Two of her major singles were arranged/composed by Hiroshi Matsui who also arranged a few SweetS songs like 'Bitter sweets' and 'Never ending story'. He also is the royal mirror ball guy. Meaning he is responsible for a few of TGS's early songs.
- The other was written by Hidetoshi Yamada who also arranged SweetS' 'Dear my friends' and 'ありがとう'. He also wrote two of the Hello Project Gatas songs.
- Seems she is friends with Perfume after working together in her second PV.

Youtube:
Candy - Stay Gold (2007)

Street Performance (2007)

Loveliest - LOVERSSOUL X HIROKI from ORANGE RANGE (2012)

http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candy_(歌手)
http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/LOVERSSOUL

I love this girl's voice. Found out about her like 2-3 years ago but was unable to find most of her singles as Candy. Seems they were easily accessible back when they were released in 2005-06. (Guess I'm late to the ball game) Found the 2nd one since it was a anime. Her latest release was a collab with Orange Range "Loveliest".

If anyone happens to have randomly downloaded her old singles in 2005 I would be forever grateful if you could share them

Been listening to the works of Yosi Horikawa, an Osaka-born sound designer, lately. Very original instrumental/electronic/field recording stuff with amazing variety between songs. It was really hard for me to pick a few examples, so check out the man's amazing work on his bandcamp and soundcloud pages:

^ Man I got super stoked since I had no idea a new release was out, many thanks for the share.

However, I'd like to point out that this is a compilation of sorts... consisting of remastered/remixed tracks and cover songs. It all sounds fantastic, of course.

I'm having trouble finding any Kindan no Tasuketsu (禁断の多数決) stuff for download online. Anyone have their albums they don't mind sharing?

Stryfe · « **Reply #1018 on:** October 22, 2013, 02:17:25 PM »

Kamomekamome released a new album in August, here's the music vid for "Naive Letters".

Recording stuffs.

Full album's on tube too, if you want to take a listen. Sounds tight.

Stryfe · « **Reply #1019 on:** October 30, 2013, 07:22:29 PM »

Speaking of Kamomekamome... here's a pretty interesting track by drummer Tomy Wealth that KK frontman Tatsuro Mukai provided vocals on.
