    Erin got a reaction from Chi in Recommended Tracks: October 2015!   
    I never actually wrote a reply for this thread this time, and I think it might be a little late but still. Two thoughts.
     
    1. Am I the only one going through a slow warm up with THE NOVEMBERS? I'm starting to like more of their songs and overall vibe at a snail's pace and it seems a little off with how many people I've seen going gung-ho on them.
     
    2. I liked NETWORKS' track a whole lot but I can't find their stuff anywhere... probably because they couldn't choose a less unoriginal name but anyway. Do they have a bandcamp or soundcloud or something?
     
    As always this thread is the best thing to go through in the month, music-wise. Keep up the good work!

    this thread is my favorite time of the month honestly
     
    i liked eito a whole lot. you could definitely pick up the LITE influences. past half the song you can notice it's a little rough around the edges indeed, kinda lacks a bit more of variety/substance. i still liked it lots though, i'll listen to their whole album when i have time.
     
    tempalay i'm kinda figuring out still. i'm liking the whole rising of beach pop rock in so many acts lately but ehhh. something about the distorted vocals with the instrumentation together doesn't sit that well with me. maybe i'll like other tracks.
     
    for a second i thought the THE KIDDIE comparison was a joke lmao it really reminds me of them. i was such a fan in like 2010/11... i really liked this KAFUKA track though. it's kinda nostalgic.
     
    the karasu wa masshiro track feels... a little different? the vocals are a lot more toned down and harmonize a lot better with the instrumentation here. also the synth is sick. i'll probably be humming it for a while.
     
    this thread always gives a lot of good recs! thanks a lot

    Erin reacted to Peace Heavy mk II in Drastic changes in musical taste   
    It could be that they got exposed to more things in a very small amount of time. Hypothetical example, but suppose they started college and had 3 roommates who were very musical. That would have exposed them to a great deal of other genres outside of vkei and possibly cause them to feel they've really compartmentalized their own tastes and try other things be it for variety, better production, or to fit in with the people they're around most now.
     
    It could also very well be that they've been changing all a long, but the result seemed immediate to an outsider. 
     
    As for the people who seem like their favorites change within 10 minutes, they probably never really liked that "favorite thing" to start with and seem like the kind of person who throw around superlatives without really placing any stock in their severity.

    Heyo, I remember you! I feel like I enjoyed your music taste back then and clearly, you've still got it

    Since you mentioned Lamp (I love you), here are some associated acts you might enjoy if you don't know them:
    Tadashi Shinkawa - On Lamp's Botanical House label. A similar "softness" to Lamp's music, but is distinguished with the use of subtle 80s synths.
    Minami Kitasono - I can't remember which, but did the arrangement and guest vocals for one of Lamp's tracks on their Yume album. Imagine him as the much quirkier version of Lamp's funkier compositions.
    Uwanosora'67 - Super influenced by 60s pop. The band revealed that Lamp member Nagai praised this track in a recent interview.

    anyway. nowadays i listen to more japanese music in general. i'm a generic shibuya kei stan, but i tend to listen to most of everything! i'm trying to be more knowledgeable of more indie acts lately, and i'm always hunting for recs because i am awful at using jpopsuki or last.fm. or stalking people's libraries. i'll probably be leeching off a lot of recs here
