Kie Kitano – Hana Taba / Bouquet (21.07)

Wahoo another Kitano Kii single ;D
I was expecting it to be similar to Sakura Saku – and boy was I right or what! Personally I don’t really dig this style of music that she has adapted ( or being forced to adapt to ? ) but so far I’m enjoying her works so all is [...]

JUJU – Trust in You (26.05)

Apparently Trust in You’s the theme song for this drama Shissou (?) – and IMHO it does sound a bit like Ashita ga Kurunara in some places !

Tracklist:

Trust in You
feel me, feel me
Koi no Yokan

Show your support for JUJU and pre-order her new single, Trust in You from YesAsia!

SCANDAL – Secret Base ~Kimi ga Kureta Mono~ (21.04) / Taiyo to Kimi ga Egaku STORY (02.06)

Yaaaaaaaaay SCANDAL’s back~!
This time, they’re releasing a cover version of ZONE’s Secret Base ~Kimi ga Kureta Mono~ and I think they did a pretty good job !
Also, they’re apparently going to release a new limited single titled “Taiyo to Kimi ga Egaku STORY” ( if my romanization is wrong, please blame these guys [...]

NERDHEAD feat. Ayuse Kozue – FORGET ABOUT U

YUI – to Mother (02.06)

Guwah~
I simply can’t believe this is my FIRST post about YUI. Specially considering that she’s my all time favourite artist ! *smacks self* – anyhoo, the new single is AMAZINGLY, beautifully slow paced, but having said that, it’s really ‘YUI-like’ if I have to put it in a word. Has a similar feeling to BLUE [...]

You can listen to the preview for the new single later in this post – [...]

mihimaru GT – OMEDETOU (21.04)

Woooshaaa – it’s mihimaru GT!! =)
Been a while since I liked any of their stuff, diverge being one of their many (old) songs that never failed to be included in my All-Time Favourites list – although the first song that hooked me was Tsuyoku Tsuyoku (if you haven’t seen the PV, please do so – [...]

miwa – chAngE

FULL VERSION FTW
EDIT: FULL PV IS OOOUUUUUUUUTTTTTTTT
The song is BETTER than I expected ( most of us can only imagine how the 2nd verse and interlude will sound like a few months ago ) but if you’re half blind and didn’t read the sentence above this, I’ll say this again… IT’S [...]

moumoon – REFRAIN (24.03)

Haven’t really listened to them properly ( and they have a long list of discography which will take a while to digest ) but I was blown away by their last single, Aoi Tsuki to Ambivalence na Ai which was hauntingly beautiful – its definitely worth 5 minutes of your time so give it a [...]
