When you download the album the tracks will be tagged in romaji, (japanesse in english), Detergentcat will be so happy, I started listening to this morning and I love it very much :D The opening song is so great! I thought the album would be crazy upbeat but it actually has a decent balance between crazy upbeat songs and nice down tempo moody songs. So far I'm keep repeating "Kanousei no Michi", and "GOOD BYE Natsuo". Enjoy!

1. 1001Nights
2. echo
3. UNITY ~Episode 1~ (BENNIE K with UNITY a.a.s.)

It's nice to hear some Bennie K after such a long time, they were one of groups I was listening to that really got me into the wider world of jpop, not just Utada Hikaru. I like "1001Nights" its interesting, as well as "UNITY ~Episode 1~", the B side 'echo" I wasn't to amazed : / Well enjoy this single.

[Single] Yuna Ito - I'm Here (2007.03.14)

1. I'm Here
2. Reason Why
3. Faith -Teardance Remix-
4. I'm Here -Instrumental-

Definally a step away from her previous work, I'm here features an upbeat and well instrumented Yuna Ito singing with raw emotion. The song's violins remind me of Fragile but "I'm Here" is very hip-hopish. "Reason Why" sounds like a song that a cheesy American hip hop group made on TV would make = good the first few times you listen to it. It's entirely in English as well. Enjoy :D

We Love Dance Classics vol.1 [2005.03.24]

01. LISA - Best Of My Love
02. Miliyah Kato - In The Night
03. DOUBLE - Ring My Bell
04. SOUL'd OUT - She's A Bad Mama Jama
05. Sowelu feat. urb - Play That Funky Music
06. Heartsdales - Push It
07. 10,000 promises - Stayin' Alive
08. TiA - I'm in the Mood for Dancing
09. GTS feat Norma Gean, Luci M - Le Freak
10. Melodie Sexton - Just Be Good To Me
11. Toshi Kubota - In The Mood
12. Skoop On Somebody - Fantasy

Well, looking at the track list, theres not much to explain. Some of the best American dance music sung by everyone's favorite Japaneses artists. I don't remember exactly how the originals sound, but I'm willing to bet that these sound a lot better. New arrangements, better vocals, modern digital recording :P. Nothing to do but enjoy. I didn't bother to tag the files correctly. At the least, you are gonna want to change the artists, as they are all "V.A." for various artists. When i first played a track from this album, i didn't expect American music. At first, i was just groovin', then I recognized the tune, then LISA's vocals came in singing the familiar lyrics. Pure bliss. The first 2 tracks blew me away. I'm a little disappointed that Sowelu didn't get an amazing song, but its still good. I'm on track 5 now, but i have high hopes for the rest of the album. Zomg, the Heartsdales track just came on, so good. ENJOY!!!!

I actually heard a few Shimatani Hitomi songs recently and started to get into her music, first Dragonfly then ANGELUS made me a fan :D I didn't reallly see her stand on msuic, like in ANGELUS it was kinda upbeat with tropic beats thrown in there and Dragonfly is more rocky, but as I listened to this entire album I noticed she moves a lot in genre, sometimes she feels a bit Tamaki Nami! At the end, I've decided to just enjoy her music, and I think you will enjoy it too!

1. Sakurairo (サクラ色; Sakura Colour)
2. On & On
3. Power of MUSIC
4. HOME -piano version- (Bonus Track)

I really have a place in my heart for Angela Aki, her music (like I probably said before) is so beatiful, peaceful and relaxing. This single is just the same, Sakurairo is a release single to commemorate Angela Aki's first time in Budokan. The concert DVD is called Angela Aki MY KEYS 2006 in Budokan and will come out later this month. I really enjoy Angela Aki singles cause they bring so many goodies! This single has two remakes of songs from her album HOME. A rearrangement of MUSIC which is more upbeat and a piano version of HOME. There is also a B side On & On which is awesome as well :D

I actually have listened to way more Anna Tsuchiya then Oliva but I think between these two albums, Trapnest wins the cake! I guess the fact that many of the songs here were already singles I owned, which meant the album was not all that new, note that for simplicity, this post the album is labeled as Black Stones, but is actually ANNA TSUCHIYA inspi' NANA [BLACK STONES] (It will be tagged correctly when you download it) OK enjoy!

Olivia's latest work, a Trapnest inspired album, the album is really awesome and extra great if your a Nana fan but its still good enough that a non-nana fan can enjoy. I personally love "Tell Me" and "Recorded Butterflies", for simplicity, this album is label just Trapnest but is actually OLIVIA inspi' REIRA [TRAPNEST] (It will be tagged correctly when you download it)

[Single] Takahashi Ai - Yume kara Samete

I don't know much about this single. As far as I know its Takahashi Ai's only solo work. It was a "downloadable" single, only avaliable for purchase online. Not sure if theres a cover. Sorry about the .tar archive also, but it includes flac, wma, and mp3 i think... Well, enjoy. Credit for the files go to soveryshiny @ jphip

3. Egao YES Nude (Instrumental)

Personally my favroite MM song yet. I don't like the newest member so much yet, but she adds nicley to the song with her Yui-like (from Viyuden) like voice. The members each get a fair share of lines, with the exception of Kamei Eri, but Takahashi Ai takes the lead. Credit to JPSEEK for the mp3s.
