Connie:
Who this you might think... well he is the producer of the group and he is a big Jpop fan that love female vocal songs :D
And despite listening world music too he discovered that Jpop is full of outside flavors like latin music, rock, etc.
I feel that I've been listening to very good part of world music via JPOP
But Negicco wasn't produced by Connie since the start. His story with Negicco started by luck, he watched them live. Since then he started to follow them as a fan. So when e invited the girls to a Jpop only event he was organizing he tought of writting them a song...
I made a song for them because I felt like "If they are coming, I want them to perform an original song
And that's how the story starts. He produced many songs or the group including T-Palette era releases like their last single "Koi no Express Train"
