Capsule’s MegaTastic Electro CD
|
[Total Time : 40:17] I first heard techno composer Yasutaka Nakata’s music by his songs for J-pop girl band Perfume and more recently for similar electro J-pop girl MEG (or meg), but Yasutaka Nakata’s own band Capsule here, along with vocalist Toshiiko Koshijima, features some fantastic electro pop. Capsule generally have a strong techno trance sound which Fruits Clipper certainly delivering here, but also have diversity by Capsule’s more lounge styled “Nexus-2060” album. No doubt though YN is a master of electronics. This CD just bristles with musical synthetic energy, trance and techno beats and features incredible melodic dance tracks such as “Megaolpolis” (which is fan-tast-ic!) and “Fruits Clipper” that will get you in dance club heaven mode in no time. There are also a few tracks with a familiar Perfume sound such as “5ive Star” and “Dreamin Dreamin”. One of the best tracks here is “Fruits Clipper”, a rock-electro-pop track with powerful techno bass grooves, contrasted with tinkling electro piano, some cute Perfume type refrain vocals – and well just brilliant! “Jelly” is more electronic dance with Perfume synthesized vocals and funk, but with additional heavy bass beats and electro rock. “CrazEEE Skyhopper” is Capsule at their most dance oriented. Techno weird with pneumatic electronics and a predominant calypso dance beat with cute childlike vocal refrain, makes this the 'dance' crowd pleaser of the bunch. “5ive Star” segues from previous into more crazY rhythmics. Similar to Perfume with added funk disco. “Endor” is a short bridge piece with, eh?, Lara Croft jungle type sound effects and “Robot Disco” is what you could expect; vocoder electronic ‘robot’ machine dance. “Super Speeder Judy Jedy” as more electronic rock ‘guitars’ and vocoder with another calypso style sequencer beat providing the main rhythm. “Megalopolis” is the real killer track for me though. Fantastic electronic melody instrumental with incredible synth sounds here. I’d buy this CD for this one track alone. Finally “Dreamin Dreamin” finishes with a disco dance funk beat and nice vocals. Probably the most Perfume sounding of the album. This is a megatastic Capsule album with a mixture of gritty and groovy techno sounds, cute Perfume melodies and cool electronic trance rhythms. If you lov electronicia or J-pop's Perfume this is the album to get. Brilliant. Certainly recommended and with plenty to jump up and down about here. ^^ Yeah! Five! Buy! |
