  • judd.baker 0I liked this much less than the other Japanese track personally. But far be it for me to say Sammy wouldn’t like it
  • Joseph Harvey 0Too modern. Vintage-flavored J pop was the move as mentioned elsewhere
  • Claire 0Good shout to whoever else also went with Japanese music. A cool song but I am out of votes alas
  • SamRobertsND 0I discovered this band via a collaboration w/ CHVRCHES, and they've become one of my favorites (they're not really known outside Japan). I thought of doing a Yellow Magic Orchestra song, as the electronica that they pioneered in late 70s Japan is and begat some of the best music ever made. This is the granddaughter of that sound, layering more recent JPop on a techno foundation. As much as I agree with Eddie about production/sound not being everything, sometimes production/sound is the whole point, as it is here (song is about a hardware store & its Aladdin-themed cleaning products lol). Claire got the Japan factor, but Nippon EDM is really my favorite in that musicscape. I used to listen to this type of stuff more in high school and college, and in digging into the depths of my interests for this round, I remembered how much I love this genre and am excited to return to it. If you liked this, I recommend their songs Onyankopon, Melos, and Zeami (most of you probably hate it tho lol).
  • Edward James -1Sadly, I think this one misses the mark. Not sure if this is Japanese or Korean, but the thought was right in including something like it. However, the specific type of international fusion Sammy likes is not the kind of dance influenced type that this represents.
  • fionmul -1Sounds like a song that plays in the club abroad as you realize you've been roofied. On the real tho it bored me but then got cooler. I think in the end it came as a jarring finish to the playlist and I had to downvote something sry.
