Just a quick head's up, my next rotation will probably be a few days late. I haven't been doing much with the site lately simply because I've been so busy with school. I've also been accepted as a reviewer at the LJ community music envy, if anyone's a member there - my username is deadsymphony. Anyways, this is just a small update. Four songs chosen completely at random:
Lie - Instant Romantic Floor
Korean | Electronica
I really like these guys. Ambient synths, a great percussion, softly sung verses interspersed with rapping.
perfect blue - Jazzin' Park feat. Atsumi
Japanese | Nu Jazz
I believe this song was actually for an anime, but it stays true to their original style. Light, feminine vocals set against a jazzy, distant piano accompaniment and a busy, pulsing percussion. A sweet, genuine, simple song.
The Day After - Ibadi
Korean | Folk Pop/Acoustic Pop
A beautiful atmospheric song that has an air of mystery and revelation. I love the soft, warm accompaniment and Horan's (from Clazziquai's) full, thick voice.
Order Made - RADWIMPS
Japanese | Rock
A soft, fairly typical rock track that consists mostly of conversational singing. There's one verse I really love, when the accompaniment kind of fades away and transitions, but other than that it doesn't really lead anywhere or build much. The guitar gets repetitive and tedious after a while. It's pretty, but not a song I would revisit. Although a lot of people really like them, so maybe it's just me.
Labels: Ibadi, Instant Romantic Floor, Jazzin' Blue, RADWIMPS
