Can't say I'm hyped- there's a lot of artists I don't follow whatsoever on this (though maybe I should, Milyah Kato is a name I see a lot...) but I am certainly intrigued by it.

The hype level might increase when samples come out. Or a full tracklist.

Makes me wonder what a Ringo tribute might look like too. I can imagine Mariko Goto doing Koufukuron...

Naw, Kato Miliyah is really boring and bland. Pop/R&B but with no sex appeal.

Ha! My pick was Goto Mariko for Kofukuron too! I also have a couple ideas for Utada, Bonnie Pink, Chara... Asai Kenichi would have to be on there too somewhere, Mukai Osamu, I would love if Cornelius did something...

I kind of like AI, Ohashi Trio is some good folksy stuff but I have to really be in the mood for it, Jimmy Lam&Terry Lewis are interesting, Bonnie Pink is usually solid, Hanaregumi has a couple good songs, and Love Psychedelico is pretty interesting. Haven't heard of the rest.

Y'know, other than QueenB of J-Pop herself.

Cover is not traveling, but LETTERS:

PREVIEW
LETTERS


Shoulda stuck with traveling IMO. This is truly the most 'elevator' I've heard Shiina Ringo sound...

I can't listen now, but you think it's bad? Fuck, that was one of the songs I wanted her to cover.

Chorus sounds ok, start makes Baishou Xtasy sound like Electric Mole in terms of excitement. To me anyway. About 2 seconds of thought went into this arrangement. At least the production is better this time though.

This in mind, it may be a grower and this is only the sample. (That and I've been listening to the hyperactive new Seiko Oomori album all morning too, so going back to this is a real downer :-p)

The other previews sound just as bland too, not just Ringos. Sakura Drops is a desecration of all that is holy.

. . . I have to admit that wasn't quite what I was expecting an Inoue Yosui track to sound like.

I really like the chorus in Ringo's Letters though!

Wait for dat moment when Ayu's cover turns out to be the best.

Whoaoa, finally decided to check this out. Pretty excited about Ringo, Miliyah Kato, Bonnie Pink, and Love Psychedelico. If anyone is going to check out Love Psychedelico by the way, listen to their old stuff.
