It finally happend, I still can't believe it!!! XD

JUNON SUPERBOY ANOTHERS had a live on August 31st 2018 and on the same day finally released their debut single. I, and I guess a lot of other fans, were waiting for this since more then two years now.  It's so unreal to see them finally releasing a cd. They wrote to release one last year too but it took them up to today to finally make it happen. Here is a little proof that the debut cd is finally out in store.

I am so happy this has finally been released and I am even more happy that all the members of Team Seniority and nearly all the members of Team Youth are taking place in this release. I am most happy for Hinata being in this thought. XDDDD 

There is two versions being released, the cd only version comes with the cover of Team Seniority and the dvd version comes with the cover of Team Youth. Here are both covers.

You can actually get the cd on CDJapan as well but it might take some time. I pre-ordered my copie and today recieved a mail that it will take them 5-10 days to get the cd. I guess I will also buy it if someone get's it up on mercari but so far that didn't happen. 

However I am super excited for this and can't wait to listen to the songs and watch the dvd.

What do you think about it? Did you follow them before?

AKLO x JAY'ED did it again...

Yesterday was the release of the new digital single of AKLO and once again he collaborated with JAY'ED. The song is called "Under the Cliff" and since they uploaded the music video for this song yesterday, I listened to it countless times already. I am so in love with this song. These two together are a perfect combination. The album they released together is still one of my all time favorite albums and this songs get's my hopes high that they will release a 2nd album together one day. That would be incredible. Besides the song is availible world wide so check out if you can find it in your preferred online music store. I bought it in iTunes. Here is the music video.

By the way I never watched the video so I can't tell you what I think about it... I just listened to the song!

First Place released MV for Major Debut "Sadame"

Mid this month First Place released a short version of their music video for their major debut. It's a beautiful song. I am looking forward to the whole song. However I am not sure if this is a good major debut song. It's a good one but it doesn't feel outstanding or very remarkable and I think a debut song should always be something special. I really like them and all four of them have really good voices so of 'course I would like to see them getting a lot of attention. Whatever here is the music video.

Check out Taichi Mukai's new songs

At the end of June Taichi Mukai released his latest mini album. This one has been released only digital and is availible world wide on various music platforms. The mini album comes with 6 songs, thought track number 6 is only availible if you buy it on itunes. Around two years ago I fell in love with this guys music but since I wasn't too excited about his "Blue" album, it took me longer to finally listen to this new album. I wish I would have listend to it earlier 'cause this album is one incredible good. I honestly LOVE all the songs. He once again blow me away with his unique and stunning music. I just love this. I can't even tell you which song I like the best. This album is from start to end extremly amazing. Thought I think Siren is my least favorite song on this album. It's not that I don't like it but I like the others songs so much more. The aucustic version of Blue at the end is so freakin' beautiful getting me all emotional and I love the Malibu SO much, such a fresh and nice song. All the songs a pretty much perfect. If you have the chance to buy it, please do it. This album is very inexpensive and the quality you will get is absolutly worth the money. Here are the few songs of the album he released on YouTube but really you miss something out if you don't listen to the others as well. 

What do you think about the songs? Are you going to buy the album or already bought it?

SIRUP released Do Well music video

SIRUP (also known as KYOtaro) is going to release his second mini album on August 1st. It will come with seven tracks in total. Here is the tracklist.

1. Do Well

2. Maybe

3. Rain

4. LOOP

5. No Stress

6. Last Dance

7. One Day

While LOOP already got a music video, this month he also released a music video for Do Well. The video and song has his specific style. I really like this style with him. It suites his voice very well but so far I liked pretty much everything he released, also when he was still doing music as KYOtaro. I am looking forward to the whole album. Here is the music video for Do Well. Please check it out.

Meet the new MAGiC BOYZ...

After MAGiC BOYZ official disbanding I was eagerly waiting for the now three members to announce their new group. The waiting has an end (even sooner then I thought). Their new name is "HONG￥O.JP". I really like their new image picture. Joe really grew up so much since their last release, it's crazy. Now it doesn't look as weird anymore to see him with the others because he doesn't look like a baby anymore. Also I like their style in this, no school boy vibes anymore but they look a little more mature. Well they are still young but it's quite a different to their former image. Here is some solo pictures.

JOE

RYUTO

TOMA

As for their music style hasn't changed, well maybe less electro influence but they keep the rap style that they had since the debut. They already released a 1st single called "Just Do It" and is availible on Spotify. I personally really like the song. The "Just Do It"-part is quite addicting and while I still think their rap is not the best, I do think they already improved. I like this song and if it ever get's availible somewhere else then Spotify, I am sure I will buy it. Well I am going to support them forever. However here is the music video.

I like the video too because I have thing for off-shot music videos like these. XD And by the way isn't it awesome that they have english subtitels. That's pretty cool.

What do you think about them, the new image and song?

COLOR CREATION announced 2nd Single

COLOR CREATION will release their 2nd major debut single on October 24th. It will be a double A-side single called "I'm Here / Blue". Like their latest single, this one will also come in three versions. Two regular ones and a dvd version. The dvd version will come with both music videos, the making of and some live digest of their "LAST INDIE LIVE" which was held on April 30th 2018.

Since I love this group a lot I am very much looking forward to this new single and have high expectations. I am pretty excited that we will get two music videos and I hope it won't take long before they upload it on YouTube. 

What do you think about the new single? Are you going to buy it?

I Don't Like Mondays. to (finally) release a new song

Four member band "I Don't Like Mondays" released their last digital single back in december 2017. Since then nothing BUT today they uploaded their new song to YouTube. The song is called " One Thing" and features SALU. I LOVE the sing already. SALUs rap suites so well to the whole song and I just LOVE the vocals of Yu. I honestly wish they would release more. If you haven't checked them out, they have a dosen of music videos on their YouTube channel and pretty much all their songs are perfect, thought they have a special sound, so of course you won't like the songs if you don't like that genre/sound. However please give them a listen, they produce all their music an their own, which already is a reason to give their music a try! Here is the new song and, just in case you never heard it, one of my personal favorites of them.

Ok... I couldn't decide which to show you so I put three in here. XD

Shimizu Shota uploaded more music videos to his VEVO channel

VEVO accounts on Youtube are the best that can happen to us international JPop fans, because they make all the music videos availible that channels like Sony Music make availible only within Japan. There is already a good handful of japanese artists that have Vevo accounts like XOX, Da-iCE, DISH// and Shimizu Shota. I was happy when these got up but some don't upload all their music videos, which is kind of sad but hopefully with time moving on they will add more. Today more music videos of Shimizu Shota have been uploaded which makes me really happy. Not because I can't watch them otherwise but because know I can show them to more people. Here are the ones he uploaded today.

What do you think about Vevo channels? Did you know these songs of him?

What I think about Shimizu Shotas WHITE album...

Today I recieved my copy of Shimizu Shotas new album WHITE. I am a huge fan of him so this will be quite bias but I will write down my honest opinion about the songs.

01. dance with me.  ♥♥♥♡♡

This song has SO much potential, if just his voice wouldn't sound so extremly mechanical. I disliked this so much when listening to the song the first time. After a few more listens I don't mind it that much anymore but really WHY...!!! Besides his mechanical voice, this song is pretty cool. I love the kinde dark feeling and the heavy deep vibrating bass sound. I think this song will grow on me the more I listen to it.

02. Good Life ♥♥♥♥♥

I love this song so much since it was released as a single. It's a song that get's me in a good mood, even thought it's not one of these happy go lucky songs. I like his rap in this song a lot, thought his voice is much more lovable. The whole song has a very nice flow to it. 

03. Friday ♥♥♥♥♥

This is the other song that has been released as a single before. I love this song SO much too and I love to singe the refrain. Such an amazing song that really get's me in weekend mood. XD

04. (I'm  fine) ♥♥♥♥♥

OMG that rap in the beginning is so nice, in generell his voice is so nice. I also like the snipping and clapping he put into this song. That gives it even more of a nice feeling.

05. Silver & Gold ♥♥♥♥♡

This song again has a nice flow to it. However it's a pretty slow-paced song and therefor can get boring easily. Thought for me, gosh damn it, just his stunning vocals would make me repeat this song for hours and not get bored of it. XDDDD

06. 踊り続けよう (Odori Tsuzukeyou) ♥♥♥♥♥+

I would say this is my favorite song of this album because I loved it right from listening to it only once. The song starts off with a deep vibrating bass sound (similar to "dance with me.") which already gave me goosebumps right from the start. I also love all the sounds he put into it. The whole feeling and flow of this songs get me to dance along. Honestly I LOVE this song SO much.

07. Range Rover ♥♥♥♥♡

This song is super beautiful and could definitly have been longer then these not even two minutes. The "Range Rover" part is a little weird thought, because it makes you feel you listen to a well done advertising song. XD 

08. Beautiful ♥♥♥♥♥

Like the titel says this is also a beautiful song and I bet it has beautiful lyrics too. This song has a quite light-hearted feeling to it and his voice sounds crystal clear. I love it. I absolutly appreciate whenever he writes such nice light songs like this one. 

09. alone ♥♥♥♥♡

This song really grew on me. The flow always get's me. Also the rap parts of both Shimizu Shota and SALU are very nice listening to. 

10. Rainbow ♥♥♥♥♥+

Sadly this is already the last song on this album but it's an amzing last one because it leaves you with this feeling of wanting to listen to all these great songs, and his amazing voice, once again. This song is extremly beautiful, I prefer it over Beautifu because the flow of this is a little nicer and his vocals are so perfect in this. My heart is beating so fast listening to this 'cause I am falling I love with his voice again and again. This guy get's me melting!! XD

Overall: ♥♥♥♥♥+

My overall opinion on this album should be really clear. Like I said I am biased but he really is a stunning artist that wrote the music and lyrics to all of these songs on his own, he arranged them all by himself and half of the songs have even been recorded by himself. Shimizu Shota is not only an extremly talanted vocalist but musician overall. If I had to choose one artist I would like to meet once, it would definitly be him. I am drifting away... So for the album why I love it soooooooo much is this great flow that you will find in all songs from the first to the last. Non of these songs feel like they don't belong there, he seems to really have thought about the order of the tracks. There is some faster songs and slow songs and many mid-tempo songs, it really is a great mix. If you like his music, you will love this and if you don't please give it a try. He deserves so much more attention.
