The title could also read as “Music from Japan that is pretty good”. It depends on your outlook on things really…
このタイトルの本当の意味は”Music from Japan that is pretty good”なんですけど、人それぞれ意見は違うものなので。
First up is the new single from Capsule, who kind of surprised everybody by announcing their album “Killer Wave” is out on March 23rd. Hoping this one contains less dodgy rapping and more playful electronic pop/dance.
1つめはCapsuleのニューシングル。新しいアルバムが3月23日に発売だそうですね。このアルバムには変なラップとかが無くて素敵なエレクトロポップ、ダンスなトラックが満載だと願っています。
We’ve actually received more than a few emails about how we haven’t featured The Lowbrows new album, Emotion. To say it’s a “Mixed-Bag” is a bit of an understatement. It does have some nice highlights though… this is one of them.
実は何人かの人から”何でThe LowbrowsのニューアルバムEmotionをピックアップしないの?”なんて聞かれました。バラエティのあるアルバムですが、このトラックみたいに素敵なトラックもあるからもうちょっと注目されても良かったんじゃないかな、と思ったり。

And finally, a track from Kido Yoji (also a member of Salman). He actually sent this to us ages ago, and we kinda laid into him a bit about how much it sounded like Breakbot. It’s a little unsettling at first, but, don’t overreact like we did. It’s a good tune. Which I think has just been signed up by James Curd’s label.
そして最後はKido Yoji (Salmanでもおなじみ)のトラック。だいぶ前に送ってくれてたこのトラック、結構Breakbot色が強すぎるかな、なんて思ってましたけど聞いてるとやっぱ好きになってました。そして最近James Curdのレーベルにサインアップしたとかしないとか。興味あります。
The Knocks!
Damn!!!! Kido Yoji has some great tracks!

We have to admit that kido yoji’s “won’t you come again” is very good. I really like it a lot.
‘this was going to be a chillwave cat post and then I chickened out’ lol
I first heard of Capsule from this blog. The band hasn’t disappointed me since and neither have you.
Thanks for the good tunes!
With your constant Yasutaka Nakata music spamming I’m surprised there hasn’t been a Perfume post yet.
But srsly, I want a perfume post.
It’s unlikely, one of us can handle them without vocals and the other one truely hates them. Might do a post about this awsm fan of Perfume though… http://www.youtube.com/user/perfume444
This guy is amazing, subbed.
