FEMM Have a New Song!

Here we go! Very synthwave it is too but that seems to be the vogue these days and something I’m happy about because my band Corserine are synthwave. Heh.

The folks at JPU have this to say about it…

New Tokyo’s electronic pop duo FEMM have released another technologically impressive music video ahead of their EU and UK tour this July. The pair also announce that laser artist YAMACHANG, responsible for the music video’s impressive visuals, will be joining the sentient mannequins for the London performances at Boston Music Room and Hyper Japan. Plus, FEMM will add a further date to the tour with an appearance at Japan Expo in Paris, the largest celebration of Japanese pop culture outside of Japan. FEMM’s tour merch designs have also been revealed.

Brand-new video ‘Falling For A Lullaby’ has just been released. The song is produced by Jenna Andrews, the songwriter responsible for k-pop mega hit “Butter” by BTS. Featuring a pounding, cyberpunk synth bassline and super-sweet pop vocals, it has become one of FEMM’s most defining tracks and is one of the duo’s most streamed songs.

14th July – Düsseldorf, Ratinger Hof
16th July – Paris, JAPAN EXPO: YUZU Stage
16th July – Paris, Badaboum

FEMM Have a New Song

If you don’t know FEMM, they had a catchy wee song a few years ago called FXXX Boys Get Money which was loads of fun and featured the band in full-on mannequin mode. New Single ‘Level Up’ sees them ditch this ridiculous shtick (yo!) in favour of something much more normal. Thank god.

Level Up is from FEMM’s EP 404 Not Found, which you can order from our old friends at JPU Records.

Ps when you get to that page ^^^ it’s not a really a 404. Ahahahaha.

6 Random Music Acts To Watch In 2016

I wrote this blog post last year about 7 Japanese acts to watch in 2015 and was all super happy when the likes of BABYMETAL went onto become global superstars so I thought it would be appropriate to do a similar piece this year, except this time I’m even going to include some Western music! So why don’t you join me for a cup of coffee and a run-down of six acts I think are set for bigger things this year. Continue reading →
