Re: [2024.05.29] Beyooooonds - Hai to Diamond / Go City Go / Hooke no Housoku
My immediate reaction is that I like the song quite a bit, and yet there's this nagging nit-pick that it's kinda formulaic for Beyonds in the same way that "Tokyo Blur" is for J=J. Early 80s funky disco-pop is Hoshibe's and Biyo's wheelhouse, but a big part of the fun of this group is taki...

ME:I taking a page out of UF's book and releasing recording footage of the "Click" session. It's not as extensive as we get on Upcoming episodes -- and some of clips only show speaking parts -- but it's raw and untuned so you a better idea of how good these girls are. Honestly they're pret...

Re: CHOOSE THE ULTIMATE HOSHIBE SHO H!P BANGER
The last of the 1st round polls features Hoshibe's work for Tsubaki Factory, C-ute, KSS and KSS Hokkaido. 15 songs, six votes, seven move on.
The MM tracks dominated their round, and I wouldn't be surprised if that continues.

Ah, so Riai is still in J=J! Good to see her getting some real burn finally, even if it is on an off-the-rack neo City Pop track like this. Seems like she's been forgotten in the push to promote the girls from the last two gens. This single isn't really hitting it for me so far, though.

Re: UFP/OG Spam Thread :: All things non-Hello!Project Related!
So Sayubee released a song back in February, and apparently none of us knew about it, lol! It's straight ahead mid-tempo J-pop, and while it's not a heater, I kinda dig it.
"Lonely Night"

So two things happened to the HInaFes "Naimono Love" clip 12 days after I posted it: Up Front finally claimed copyright, which is no big deal because they're really good about not blocking content like this from other channels. The other thing is that YT started recommending it, and the Ja...

Re: The Official Unofficial Kenshuusei Guide + News Source
Woah. I guess we're gonna find out if she learned how to sing over the last year!
I'm honestly pulling for her based on how she handled her crash-and-burn at last year's Shinden test. I'm also looking forward to see how much Nina has progressed.

Re: Kasahara Momona Becomes Candidate on Produce 101 Japan
"Sugar Bomb" is more solidly in the K-pop realm than "Click" was, and doesn't stick with me as much. This is more like what I was expecting from the start, tbh.

OCHA NORMA / MORNING MUSUME ROUND 1 is now live. You get 6 votes, which isn't enough even for me on this one. Hoshibe's work with MM is sparse, but spectacular. OCHA's basically fighting for the final two spots for me.

Re: [2024.05.15] Juice=Juice - Tokyo Blur / Naimono Love / Oaiko
Honestly didn’t listen to the concert rip so that dance break felt like such a record scratch. It’s okay but it’s missing a pop. Like it’s not going to its full potential. The vocals just aren’t hitting me right. I feel like Karin could have added a lot to the vocals if she were still in the group....

Re: Hartificial! Pintelligence
Last year I posted some YT vids of a guy who did voice replacement of newer H!P songs with OG voices. I think they're in the H!P spam thread, but not positive. They were pretty hit-and-miss. I haven't messed with A.I. that much myself.

The first of the multi-group Round 1 polls features Juice=Juice and Country Girls. As with all the previous polls, you get six votes.

Those covers are very H!P . Nothing wrong with any of them, and a couple are very nice, but pretty formulaic for the company by this point. It seems like OCHA and Biyo are the only groups who get to color outside the lines in terms of cover art.

It's a nice looking and well-shot clip, but it feels like every other J=J and Anju vid look like this.
