Artist: alan 阿蘭, 阿兰 or アラン
Song Title: ひとつ Hitotsu
Singles:
ひとつ Hitotsu
Year / Track: 2008, Track #1
Genre: Japanese, Ballad
My Rating:
10 / 10
Comments/Info: WOW. That's all I can say. This is a perfect must-download pop-ballad song to start the rotation! alan is an ethnically Tibetan singer from the Sichuan area of China. She debuted in 2007 and she remains an under-rated artist and I feel an urge to rock her to the surface! I felt privileged to hear such MAGNIFICENT AND COMMENDABLE vocal. One of the most amazing thing is that she improved A LOT since her last single back in 2007. No nasal voice and as the song buills up through the chorus, she hits the highest octave withough falling into a falsetto! KUDOS to her!! The way her vocal flows ups and downs with different range makes up for the ordinary piano arrangement. As you would have expect, some light Tibetan instruments are being incorporated and because of that I love her even MORE! She is currently still studying Japanese, and only has a basic grasp of the language. So, you can expect simple and blotchy Japanese, but it's moderately impressive. Lovely, ethereal, soothing ballad.

Artist: Yorico より子
Song Title: 臆病なライオン Okubyou na Lion
Album:
願う Negau
Year / Track: 2008, Track #10
Genre: Japanese, Pop
My Rating:
9.5 / 10
Comments/Info: Yorico originally debuted as an indies artist under Harmony Records in 2002. Her music is piano / orchestra-based, similar to Angela Aki. "Okubyou na Lion" is such a playful rhythmic song, with great tapping piano technique, tambourine pieces, and layered vocals. Her vocal reminds me of Younha, clear rough and moderately strong. Great effort by Yorico using nasal vocal to sing the higher end of the octaves. She was diagnosed having a throat cancer as a child and through her life has struggled to fight the disease. I think it's extremely inspirational for her to have to go through that and I applaud her for surviving in Japan's competitive music industry.

Artist: S.E.N.S
Song Title: Forbidden Love
Album:
Natural - The Very Best Of S.E.N.S.
Year / Track: 2004, Track #1
Genre: Instrumentals, Orchestra, Piano, New Age
My Rating:
10 / 10
Comments/Info: S.E.N.S, made up of duo Akihiko Fukaura and Yukari Katsuki, two talented musicians who composed and play electronic keyboard-Orchestra songs. S.E.N.S is well known for composing songs for Japanese TV Dorama series, such as "Kamisama Mou Sukoshi Dake", "Asunaro Hakusho", "A City of Sadness", "Love 2000". and many others. Forbidden Love is one of most notable track of the popular dorama 'Love 2000' (Nisennen no Koi), starring Takeshi Kaneshiro and Nakayama Miho. The story revollves arounf the forbidden love between a secret agent & assassin Nogami (Kaneshiro) sent on a mission to Japan, who fell in love with a systems analyst Rieru (Nakayama). The simple orchestrated instrumentals depict what the characters are feeling perfectly and heigthen the listeners' inner emotional control capability. The delicate melodies, rhythms and musical instruments are infectiously sorrowful and forlorn. The use of cello further deepen the sorrow and the dilemma in the forbidden romance, creating such a quiet and depressing mood.

Song Title:
I
Singles:
I
Year / Track: 2008, Track #1
Genre: Japanese, Alternative Rock
My Rating:
10 / 10
Comments/Info: Spotlight for Japan's newcomer alt rock singer, Nishino Kana (age 19), who debuted on February 20, 2008 with her single "I". I immediately fall in love with this song the first time I listened to this song. Okay, she might not have the strongest vocal out there, but I reckon it's pretty decent try for a new artist. The debut track has quite messy music arrangement, with typical drum beats and rifting smooth gitar here and there PLUS some synthetic electro instrumentation. I really love the catchy chorus and the way she yells, "SOS, I don't wanna know...~ leading up to the chorus. I was incredibly hypnotised with the beautiful layered vocals of hers, which somehow reminds me of typical goth Anna Tsuchiya's vocal. From when she was little, Nishino learnt English from eikaiwa schools, and went to America twice. In 2007 while preparing to be a singer, she was also studying English literature at university; so you can expect some good English from her. One of promising new JPop artists to come!

Genre: Japanese, Rock
My Rating:
9.5 / 10
Comments/Info: W00t~ New singles from AKFG!! I'm super bias with this band because I just LOVE *hearts* them so much! This is another melodic rock arrangement done by AKFG. It was'nt as hardcore and disorientated rock like Haruka Kanata, but the signature rock elements are still there. The complexity of the bass, drum, electric guitar, and other rock instruments patterns are always notable and consistent. Goto's falsetto is always a plus to the song, I'm glad that this band consistently deliver great awesome rock to us, music lovers :)

Artist: Ikimono Gakari いきものがかり
Song Title:
花は桜 君は美し Hana wa Sakura Kimi wa Utsukushi
Singles:
ライフアルバム life album
Year / Track: 2008, Track #7
Genre: Japanese, Alt-Rock
My Rating:
9.5 / 10
Comments/Info: Ikimono Gakari is a rather underrated 3-piece band which made their main-stream debut in 2006 with "SAKURA". The band was first formed in 1999 as an indies band, but never saw the big lights until 2006, and now they come up with their sophomore mainstream album called Life Album. The album reached #1 on Oricon Weekly Charts in its first week, which is extremely impressive for an under-rated indie band. AND Yes, shame on me for not discovering this Jpop-rock band! This album was my starting point for me to discover the goodness of their music. For me, this title track remains one of the standout track within the album. The beginning replicates ballad kinda music, but don't let it fool ya'~ Cos the drum beats begins to pop put and light bass starts to kick in. I really love that pace of beat change and Kiyoe's clear crystal vocal is absolutely likeable. The way she attempts to use non-nasal voice when she reach high notes is pretty cute. This song is fast-paced in the middle, youthful and has great lyrics as foundation. The way the song begins and ends is great, a contradicting change from the fast-pace of the chorus. Brilliant and cunning music!

Song Title:
キミの記憶 Kimi no Kioku
Singles:
Breakin' Through
Year / Track: 2008, Track #2
Genre: Japanese, Rock
My Rating:
10 / 10
Comments/Info: I thought this guy deserves some exposure for releasing a solid debut single 'Breakin Through', which is used as an OST for action anime "Persona ~Trinity Soul~". I really like the mixed instrumentals within the song, a nice trick combo between electronised/modified piano beat and clinking bamboo beat, which crate a surreal mood somehow. Okay, it can be repeitive, but it's addicting!!! I like the way he sings like he's reading, half reading half singing in a fast-paced mode. His voice is unique, not manly but so smooth and seductive. He uses a nice stomach voice when he hits the high notes (climax) bits and it's done pretty neatly.

Get a Life
Singles:
Life
Year / Track: 2008, Track #3
Genre: Japanese, Pop-RnB, Classical
My Rating:
10 / 10
Comments/Info: Ahhh, how could you not LOVE this song! It has RnB element (rap), classicals, and pop! I've introduced you guys to twenty4-7 ages ago ( I think it was my rotation in December 2007) and since then they gained quite popularity, ne? This is their 2nd album, which was a better attempt than their first ones FOR SURE!! "Get a Life" is one of my favourite track with playful classical piano piece combine with electro RnB beats. Vocals are soooo richly blended here, with few amazing high-octaved range here and there. It's beautiful and fun song that can cheer you up and basically.....GET A LIFE!! ^v^

Song Title:
Sociometry
Singles:
BLAZE
Year / Track: 2008, Track #2
Genre: Japanese, Trance, Pop
My Rating:
9 / 10
Comments/Info: I haven't heard from Kotoko for ageeeeees! Yes, she is well known for inserting her songs into anime-related soundtrack, but she rarely release something non-anime related stuffs. I'm satisfied with her latest single, though the music type and trance bits starts to irritatingly sounds the same as her other trance tracks. It'sa likeable non-hardcore trancey title track, but it's nothing as extraordinary as Re-sublimity or Uzu-maki. There is a subdued lyrics throughout the song, I found that a great change since she always rushes and tries to fit gazzilionth sentences in one line. Great effort!

Artist: YUI
Song Title:
I wanna be...
Singles:
Namidairo
Year / Track: 2008, Track #2
Genre: Japanese, Pop-Rock, Alternative
My Rating:
9.5 / 10
Comments/Info: Yui has done it again! It has been over 1 year since I grew fond of her stuffs and the newest singles just light up my love again towards her music. Her voice is really sweet and clear, and fits her image and her acoustic innocent music style. "I wanna be..." kicks off with great rifting acoustic guitar and neat percussion, it is upbeat and slightly more colourful than her side-A ballad. As usual, the lyric is simplistic, inspirational, and speaks about life in general. Okay, she can be a pbit pitchy at times and the song is a bit monotonous, but it's a great progressively upbeat poppish song that you can't help to sing!

Album:

Genre: Japanese, New Age
My Rating:
10 / 10
Comments/Info: I just had to post this!!! Her latest album is SUPER MAGNIFICENT REMARKABLE OUTSTANDING GORGEOUS BEAUTIFUL that I'm having a DIFFICULT time to pick which one to sample for you guys here! I uploaded Kokia's last single and most of you commented thatyou love it, so here I am uploading a few more of her!! Anyway, 'The Voice' showcase different genres, variety, and her breath-taking vocal ranges. "Odoyaka na Shizukesa" is a perfect song to kick off the album, it starts with gorgeous wavy complex vocals by Kokia. The ambience is calming, yet the musical arrangement is so complex it combines piano, cello, bass, and snythetic instrumentals. It's a bit abstract in a way but it's so ethereal. It's a smart musical composition, with of course layered spell-binding vocals The song is a bit longer than usual, but you'll find beauty and serenity within the song..

Prisoner of Love

HEART STATION
Year / Track: 2008, Track #1
Genre: Japanese, New Age
My Rating:
10 / 10
Comments/Info: I'm rejoicing over Hikki's latest album! Although I'm a bit dissapointed due to the lack of new songs within the album, but it's amazing how I love every track of the album!!! The sounds are much more electronised and studio-modified rather than orchestratic / accoustic-driven arrangement. "Prisoner of Love" is a great upbeat pop music with some typical hip-hop beat on it. This isone of many standout tracks the first time I listened to the whole album. It can be repetitive overtime, but I need to commend Hikki on her vocal, it's just absolutely amazing. She's more focus on filling teh gaps between the break of the song by singing in a different range, which I found very wise because it brings a nice flow overall to the song.

Artist: Sun Ha 선하
Song Title:
Take It
Album:
Fahrenheit
Year / Track: 2008, Track #3
Genre: Korean, RnB
My Rating:
9 / 10
Comments/Info: This is one of the title track from Sunha's debut album 'Fahrenheit' in January 2008. Sun Ha is a new artist under DSP, a popular idol factory that have produced artist like Lee Hyori, etc. She's 23 years old and she was the second runner up for Miss Seoul in 2006. Sun Ha is nicknamed as the "next Lee Hyo Lee" based not only on the two stars' physical resemblance but also Sun Ha's huge potential to reach the same dizzying heights of stardom as Lee Hyo Lee. Vocal wise she's not as strong as other female Korean RnB artists, but I think she's done quite well in this mini album. The beat and the flow of the song is simple and suit her vocal range. Likeable and catchy chorus, you will find common RnB melody that you will like. She's not bad for a pretty beauty queen.

Song Title:
슬픈 사랑의 노래 Seulpeun Sarange Norae
Album:
AMARANTH
Year / Track: 2008, Track #6
Genre: Korean, Ballad, RnB
My Rating:
10 / 10
Comments/Info: You SERIOUSLY gotta download this and BUY THE ALBUM!! It's amazing!!! Da Vici, is the new mysertious RnB duo made up of members Kang Min Kyung and Lee Hae Ri. To ensure the media’s interest, Da Vici’s debut music video features sexy Lee Hyori and actress Lee Miyeon as the female duo from the classic girls movie, Thelma and Louise. This is why a lot of people get mistaken that both Hyori and Miyeon sang this, but the truth is it was Min Kyung and Hae Ri who are the members of Da Vici. Anyway, I'm completely in love with this track. You gotta turn up the music volume to further deepen your understanding of the music. It's a somber bitter melachonly song. The song kicks off with beautiful and quite uplifting piano, before the vocalist's forlorn vocals establish the depressing atmosphere. I completely adore + LOVE their smoky voice, it gives a total of desperation especially when she sings, "Kah-jima, Kah-jima (Don't go, don't go)". You don't have to understand the lyrics, but it takes you to this sea of sadness. Powerful vocals with beautiful orchestra. I've told you before, Koreans do a more powerful ballad than the other Asians and this title proves it hard.

My Rating:

Comments/Info: This is another popular song for super popular Korean series, GOONG, starring Eun Hye and Joo Ji Hoon . This is another beautiful ballad piece that can sway you and makes you teary. I like how the vocalist insert high ocatve notes in the last bits of the chorus. The flow of the music is fabulous, with the song builds up from a normal stanza with siple piano with a more dense musical arrangements as it reaches the climax near the end of the song. A gorgeous yet heart-breaking ballad.

Comments/Info: Remember this band? I introduced you guys to their style of music (sampled about 3 songs from their 1st album) back in last rotation. Well, they are back with their new album! Which is quite unexpected, since they just released their 1st debut album not so long ago! But hey, I'm not complaining~! Again, their style f music kinda improved a bit, with few exprimentation of different genres and collboration with other artists. Anyway, Me Joohee is such an addicting Hip-Hop/RnB track that can get your booty shakin~! ^v^ It's a sexy song with great quality vocal, especially by the only lead female vocalist. The jazzy trumpet is fun and incorporated perfectly with the hip hop beat and shouting and rap.

Album:
Dramatic & Cinematic
Year / Track: 2008, Track #5
Genre: Korean, Alternative, Pop-Rock
My Rating:
10 / 10
Comments/Info: I'm jumping in joy and excitement that Loveholic finally released their 5th album after nearly 1.5 year hiatus since November 2006. Dramatic & Cinematic is filled with unforgettable melodies and infectious sounds from popular dramas and movies like Singles, One Fine Day, My Lovely Kim Sam Soon, The Snow Queen, 200 Pound Beauty, and Christmas In August. Unfortunately, Dramatic & Cinematic marks Ji Seon's last act with Loveholic before venturing out on her solo, but Loveholic promises to march on. "Want You Hear" is one of my favourite KDrama series, it's a nice pop-rock song with ballad element incorporated to it. HOW COULD YOU NOT SERIOUSLY FALL in love with Ji Sun's vocal.... it's soothing, lovely, and angelic! I really adore how here is overlapping male background voice in the background. The melody is so likeable with the rifting guitar and musical beats.

Song Title:
文成公主 Wen Cheng Gong Zhu
Album:

Year / Track: 2008, Track #8
Genre: Mandarin, Pop
My Rating:
9.5 / 10
Comments/Info: This album hit Huang YiDa hard and a few people have been really dissapointed, especially after the hype from his GORGEOUS previous releases "Chou Nan Ren" (for Devil Beside You OST) and "Set Me Free". Allegedly, this album is written when he attempted to commit suicide, therefore there are some depressing, dark, and twisted music arrangements within the album. Wen Xheng Gong Zhu may be perceived as rather unusal and weird for some listeners, but I love the awesome combination of Chinese traditional chants and new western new age elements. It's a pity that it goes all monotonous towards the end, and I was sitting there expecting more and more: I was hoping the music to build up into a this modern heavy rock like "Set Me Free" and just explode your heart out. But, sadly it didnt happen. It was a decent attempt, positively admirable because of the musical arrangements.

Song Title:
香水 Xiang Shui
Album:
為愛而生 Born To Love
Year / Track: 2008, Track #5
Genre: Mandarin, Alt-Rock
My Rating:
10 / 10
Comments/Info: Translated as "Perfume", this title track from Mayday's latest album rocks up my playlist real hard coupla times! Mayday is a Taiwanese band that originated in the late 1990s but has since become one of the biggest alternative rock bands in the Taiwanese pop culture, thus receiving a range of accolades as well as moving records all over the world. Mayday sing songs mostly in Taiwanese and Mandarin. They project a clean and healthy image, representing the zeitgeist of the Taiwanese youth who identify with the band's themes of innocence, dreams, loneliness and determination (Wikipedia). At the same time, the band's unique outlook on life has attracted many fans who find their views refreshing. 'Xiang Shui' a moderately heavy aternative rock song with quite loud and disorientated music instruments. Strangely, the first beginning part reminds me of Maroon 5 with funky kinky elements to it. This song is just liekable in every aspect, the stanzas and even the chorus are addicting. Vocalwise, Ashin is quite impressive, especially when he experiment with rap and shouting and low-nd and high-end register. Somethign different from Korean and Japanese alt-rock!

My Rating:

Comments/Info: This is another typical ballad covered by S.H.E. Honestly, I'm a big fan of S.H.E. Their music is so likeable, the personaliities of the band's members are FABULOUS and they produce decent music. Yes, their music can be a bit ordinary, but they are honest about their lyrics interpretation. Again, I love the layered vocals in this song and the simple romantic lyrics. The piano is faded in the background and constant heavy percussion beats remain focal in the song. Soothingballad song that makes you fall in love all over again.

My Rating:
8.5 / 10
Comments/Info: OMGSH, this song is sooooo addicting!!! This is an unusual collaboration between Lin Jun Jie and Kiki Hu. Kiki Hu, which most of you will not know about, is the winner of Singaporean Idol, so you can expect some great quality in her vocal. It is strong, though not as powerful as she should be (but fair enough, she didnt have much chance to hit high octaves in RnB type of song). Jun Jie is always adorable undoubtedly, it is a pity he only sings rap part of the song. It's a funky catchy poppish song, but I get bored of it real quickly. If they do ballad collaboration, it would be awesome, I reckon! Both powerful vocals join together... whoaw!

This song is just so cool and suit TANK perfectly; it kicks off with ordinary rap and heavy bass work. Then the chorus came with built up beats and that's where I scream "OHH YEAAA!" that's what I call a rock song! It's an angry wiith some angst and desperation-flavoured song; PLUS some sexy element! I couldnt ask for more. The song finish with Tank chanting (humming) with different layered vocals combine with messy rock arrangement, it's powerful and AWESOME!

Genre: Japanese, Pop-Rock
Comments/Info:
I'm totally 100000% obsessed with this song. I can listen to it for gazzilion times and still love it to death. I particularly like the way the chorus flows in this song. The instrumental accompaniment is interesting, with guitars appearing here and there, harmonicas, and of course strong percussion. As always, the interpretation of her lyrics is not direct, which makes her music distinct from others and makes her a credible full-fledged artist and performer. The music video, despite her daggy look back in 1999, is deeply mysterious, spooky, fascinating and a bit gross in a way. But wot the heck! I'm lovin hitomi anyways *hehe ^_^*

Comments/Info:
Perfect music composition, perfect vocal, perfect everything! This song starts with a hardcore electric guitar, banginga and pumping explosive rock beats. The music is heavily layered with noisy background rockish feeling, it suits OLIVIA's high octavesvocal nicely. The PV uses a random scene, using a distinct contrast looks of OLIVIA, specifically from her cute babydoll innocent face at the beginning to her rock funky looks as a rock singer in the chorus part. She is photogenic, thanks to her mixed heritage which makes her looks good on screen and off-screen.
