A-chan’s little sister formed an electro-pop unit

Posted on December 2, 2008 by ekuseru

~~Ayaka Misiwaki~~ Nishiwaki Sayaka (西脇彩華), as known as Cha-pon of 9nine, has formed an electro-pop unit ORDINARY VENUS with Shuji Ishii (石井秀仁) of GOATBED. They will release their debut album ORDINARY VENUS on December 17th.

In this unit, Ishii does track-making and art works, and Cha-pon takes charge of vocal. 80′s Japanese Idol Pops like Seiko Matsuda, Shizuka Kudo, Wink, Yoko Minamino, Akina Nakamori, Rie Miyazawa, and Yu Hayami revive by GOATBED supuleme twinkle and sparkling sound that only GOATBED can make.

Cha-pon is also known as a little sister of Ah-chan of Perfume. Just like Perfume that capture the heart of electro-pop in J-POP scene, ORDINARY VENUS must become the representative techno-pop unit of Japan with perfume for the future.

Perfume’s Juicy Fragance

Posted on November 27, 2008 by ekuseru

Juicy Fragance (ジューシーフレグランス) is Perfume’s phantom song.

Nakata Yasutaka deleted by accident the data from the computer.
In the radio program Magical City on September 6th 2006 Kashiyuka said:

Kashiyuka: “At that time that was Perfume members favorite song”.

Nocchi: “Perhaps the company have the CD. A~chan is humming the tune.”

Even though it was played live it wasn’t yet registered at JASRAC.

In addition, I’ve cut that part of the program Magical City (20060906) so you can listen to the whole part about the song with A-chan humming it while Kashiyuka and Nocchi talk about their favorite and missing song.
