Music event: - On Monday evening I went to see an in-store live by Sugar's Campaign (Avec Avec & Seiho) from Osaka at Tower Records Shibuya. They were accompanied by Akio, who sings "Netokano" and "Hong Kong seikatsu". They also played several other songs DJ style, such as Hitomitoi's "Frozen Horizon" (produced by Avec Avec), and a remix by Seiho of Yuki's "daredemo Lonely". Their release party in Tokyo for single "Netokano" will be held at Daikanyama Unit on November 2.
- Then on Tuesday (a holiday), I went to Takako Minekawa & Dustin Wong's "unofficial release party" for new album "Savage Imagination" at Ochiai Soup! I had seen them at the same place a year and a half a go (report). Again this time I was impressed at how they can recreate their complex songs entirely live by using an array of loop pedals. I also got my CD autographed by the two! Thanks! :D
An in-store event will be held at Tower Records Shibuya (3rd floor) on Saturday October 4 from 14:00. The album's official release party will be on October 14 at Shibuya O-nest.
The opening band was Group A, an electro & violin noise unit girl duo who perform in very light clothing (a white drape over their white-painted bodies). They were good though a bit freaky to watch from the front row. :)
Music release news: Perfume, 80kidz
Playlist: Digital Underground, Le Tigre, Flin Flon, etc.
This week's video: Jane Jupiter (aka Kid Sister) "Higher"
