Hi everyone
I am Alistere,the new cohost ^^
Thank You Haruhi
I hope you like my rotation.But I had a few grammar mistakes

~ Haru Haru - Jo Won Sun ~
Korean
Folk/Ballad
Jo Won Sun was a member of the jazztronica/jazz fusion group, Rolller Coaster.
The instrumental & vocals of this song are very restful. I enjoyed it from the first listen.

~ Lotus - Dahlia ~
English (but the singer is Japanese)
Electro/Pop
I like this song. Dahlia has a very soft and relaxing voice. I like the repetitive-sounding keyboard that approximates
the style of the group Humming Urban Stereo.

~ Love You - Vistee ~
Korean
Electro/Pop
Koreans are excellent in the field of electro music.

~ D-Day - Roller Coaster ~
Korean
Latin Pop
Here is a song by the band Roller Coaster where Jo Won Sun is a member. I like the guitar melody. It gives a Latin feel.

~ Tie Hu Die (Iron Butterfly) - Alisa Galper ~
Chinese
R&B/Jazz
My favorite R & B music. A song with R & B influences, jazz saxophone and aggressive sound with drums and electric guitar and a touch of electro.

~ DNA - By2 ~
Chinese
R&B
A song R&B with a little rap and touch of electro.

~ Koi Kogarete - Beni Arashiro ~
Japanese
R&B/Ballad
A new favorite ballad. A mid-tempo ballad with piano and the treble voice of Beni, which is very pretty.

~ Show Girl - Koda Kumi ~
Japanese
R&B/Jazz
Here a song of Koda Kumi's. I love this song. A R&B song with jazz sound (with aggressive saxophone similar to "Tie Hu Die" by Alisa Galper).

~ Big Beat - Now ~
Korean
R&B
Here is a song from my second husband (lol). The first time I listened to this song, I got hooked. I am fallen in love (lol). This song has an R & B beat and makes me want to dance. I hope you enjoy this artist who is not well known.

Enjoy everyone !

Hey,

First off, I'm sorry that the upcoming rotation is late. I have final exams this week, so the rotation probably won't be up for a few more days. But, I do have a couple songs for you guys as well as some songs that I uploaded for requests or at other sites, and thought I'd share with you guys too. I know I don't really have an up-to-date, organized song list, simply because I have such a huge amount of music, but please feel free to request any songs, if I have them or am able to find them I'll be happy to share them with you.

But on another note, please remember to comment or even just leave a rating. I've said this sooo many times and even been forced to shut the site down for periods of time because of a lack of feedback, and it's just frustrating. Honestly, typing "thanks" will not take that long. Clicking a star in the rating scale will take even less - far less than the time it takes to prepare and upload rotations. I really don't want to have to put the site on hiatus simply because I'm so discouraged by lack of commenting, but the last rotation received zero comments and only one rating, and quite a large number of downloads.

Anyways, onto the music:

Heartbreaker - Dynamic Duo ft. JW of Nell
Korean | Hip-Hop
This was a song that I was greatly looking forward to listening to, considering that it's by two of my favourite artists, and two very different artists. I was interested in seeing how their sounds blended together. While the song is predominantly hip-hop with its heavy beats and dark atmosphere and dominated by Dynamic Duo's rapping, the sung verses by JW of Nell definitely have their own flavour and feel while also adapting to the style of the song. It adds a certain freshness to the otherwise quite predictable rap song; I find myself listening on if only to hear the melodic verses.

Pure - EXILE
Japanese | Pop/Ballad
A pretty, melodic piano-based ballad from EXILE. It's mid-tempo and incredibly sweet and genuine. Despite being a fairly cookie-cutter song, it's well done, with warm harmonies, heartfelt vocals, and an overall familiar atmosphere.

Miracle Poppop - Vistee
Korean | Pop/Jazz/Easy-Listening
I'm not really sure what to call this, she certainly has a unique and somewhat eccentric style. A soft, sugary song with a strong Latin drive. Vistee's sweet, poppy voice certainly suits the song well, allthough in my opinion it could have been a bit stronger and fuller. A breath of fresh air.

Hey, Mr. - Dream Girls ft. Taesabiae, Venus, Han Ji-Eun
Korean | Pop/Electronica
I'm always hesitant to try out girl groups, generally not being a fan of them, but Dream Girls may be an exception. While this song was far from blowing me away, I did think it was quite impressive. It's a mid-tempo, R&B influenced track with a wonderful piano base and rich, powerful, yet decidedly feminine vocals. The hook is just wonderful, everything comes together perfectly. It's not particularly innovative, but has its twists that make it unique.

바나나 파티 - Yozoh (Banana Party)
Korean | Indie Pop
Yozoh has a certain child-like quality of her voice, which is especially prevalent in this song. It's a cute, sugary number that's quite relaxing yet amusing at the same time. It's fairly simple, with only light percussion and an acoustic guitar. Although the lyrics in the chorus (Give me your banana, let me taste your banana) could possibly have a somewhat disturbing double meaning. O_o
