I lovelovelove Rumble Fish. They have a very rock/soft rock type of sound, but they're not as well recognized as say, Loveholic. Nonetheless, they're still absolutely fabulous, and Choi Jin Yi, the lead singer, has beautiful vocals. They're definitely a group to watch out for, so do give them a try! :)

Kittie says: I can't believe this has never been posted to the comm before! So, first I have to confess something: I adore Christmas music. Once Thanksgiving passes I put on the carols and I sing along until New Year's. I also listen to Christmas music throughout the year when the mood strikes me but I will NEVER admit to this. So, it should come as no surprise that I love this album, since it's my favorite boyband singing Christmas carols - and a cappella too! There are 2 things I don't like about this album: first, it's too short, and two, the Engrish is out in full force. I happen to really dislike Engrish (I know, what am I listening to Asian music for, right?) and I find the accents really distracting, but for those of you that don't mind it, it's a lovely little album. Plus the boys sound so young and cute, how can you not love it? :P My personal favorites are all of them 마법의 성(Magic Castle) and 글로리아 높으신 이의 탄생(Angels We Have Heard On High), both of which are sung in Korean XD and the harmonies are just beautiful. Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town is really cute too, and 기도문 (Prayer) is actually a narration track, but the diehard fans among you will love to hear the boys talking. And I know O Holy Night ft. BoA isn't actually on this album (they released it on their first Korean single, Hug) but it's a Christmas song so I stuck it in here anyways.

Bottom Line: DBSK + Christmas = lots of joy for the season! XD

o1. 패밀리 (Family) (feat. Son Dam Bi) ♥
o2. 그 약속 (Geu Yaksog; The Commitment) (feat. Lee Jung Pyo)

Rating:

Review: Family reminds me a lot of Energy (the song), with a slightly reworked arrangement; bubbly, uptempo atmosphere; and super coated vocals. Its innocent, fun nature, and addicting stop-and-go lyrics ("Forever~ Let's go - oh - oh - oh!") contribute to a great song overall. Son Dam Bi's high, clear, sunny vocals add a lot of innocent appeal to the song. She sounds great! And it goes without saying, but the Mighty Mouth boys sound great (like always), with their quick, cheerful, and infectious raps. Geu Yaksog takes a softer, slightly-somber route with gentle rapping, a lonesome violin, and hopeful choruses that periodically brighten the mood. Thankfully, it is not too depressing, and it has a strong enough rhythm to maintain my interest. Overall, I'm still loving MM! :D This is another strong single from them. Give it a shot!

Here's a smattering of Vivian Hsu (徐若瑄) music. There's lotsa old ones and uhh.. some Japanese and Korean songs of hers. More songs are occasionally uploaded at lantian!

EDIT@6:54PM PST

We just implemented a temporary fix for our internal network and it *looks* promising. We'll let it bake in overnight and see how well it performs tonight and tomorrow.

------

Hi hi!

We've completed the majority of the move and had the site back up by 20:00 UTC (hey, look, I can post! You can read! Yay!) , but there's still some lingering issues that we need to clean up and are aware of so please be a little more patient while we wrap up the odds and ends.

I want to echo the lj_releases post where we thank burr86 and dormando for their ceaseless efforts, skill and knowledge. The LJ Ops and Engineering teams have/are *still* working their butts off but without burr86 and dormando's expertise, we could not have pulled this off.

For you techies, the slowness on our website is known, and the issue is currently isolated to oversubscribed ports on our core switches. That's direct from our vendor. Yeah, I know... Anyways, we're trying to implement a temporary workaround and we'll be looking to upgrade our hardware as a permanent solution. Please, hang in there a little longer!

wishing you a happy holiday season,

We hope you find a nice wintry blend of holiday music to add to your festivities!

( HO! HO! HO! )

The epic hit that is East of Eden continues on~ For its second OST, they bring about even more beautiful ballads by the likes of Lee Seung Chul, KCM, Black Eyed Pearl, and hit producer Cho Young Soo, who's done work for SG Wannabe, SeeYa, and other famous ballad singers and groups. Included in this OST is also Song Seung Hun's song that I previously posted here.
I have to say though, personally the focus on this album seems to be a lot more on the instrumentals versus the first OST, where lots of hit singers were brought in to make huge hits (SG Wannabe & Kim Jong Wook's duet won the MKMF Award for Best OST? ;D). The instrumentals are absolutely breathtaking, and definitely the major spotlight of this OST. Normally I know most people always skip over the instrumentals, but do give them a listen! They're beautiful and couldn't be more perfect.

Rating:

Review: With a name like Dream Fighter, you may be expecting an edgy, rough, rock-driven song, right? Thankfully, this song is an even mixture of their usual formula (preppy pop + energetic electronica), and slight dark undertones. Dream Fighter is a nonstop adventure. The girls' crisp, cheery vocals and the vibrant, effervescent arrangement equally contribute to the song's phenomenal replay value. It's brilliant, really. Negai sits comfortably on the other side of the spectrum; it's a sweet, soothing electropop-ballad wish subtle dashes of soulful R&B. Perfume's vocals blend together seamlessly to create a weightless, feminine, unified sound. It's a simple, breezy, refreshing song. I love it! Ultimately, this single is fantastic; highly recommended for sure! I'm very impressed!

o1. Crash ♥

Rating:

Review: Crash is a bubbly, sparkly acoustic song with a sweet "la la la" hook, casual guitar melody, and inspirational, individualistic lyrics; "You gotta do what you can, with all the time that you have. / You gotta do what you want, you gotta mean what you say. / So don't crash! Start everything over again." With sunny, cascading harmonies, and a consistent bright, feel-good atmosphere, this is yet another highly recommended digital release from Blaise.

Chay says: I had hoped this would leak. I really wanted to see what the B-side to this single sounded like! This single is going to be another strong one for the girls, I can feel it. I hope it climbs all the way to the top like love the world!!

Dream Fighter doesn't feel as technopoppy as much of Perfume's songs have been in the past, but it still does have that techno edge. :3 XD; I'm proud to say that I really like this song. I didn't like Baby Cruising Love, Macaroni, or love the world at all when they came out. >__>they had to grow on me (and still are D:). There's really not much to say about this song. It's really strong vocally and it has an interesting composition. The chorus is additive, but then again, so are the verses. :3 I love the random flutter of electropop beats when the song picks up to crest into the chorus.♥ 願い will have you do a flipping twelve take. After finishing a sugar high with Dream Fighter, 願い brings you down to a more sane level with a dreamy, slow tempoed almost ballad. Nakata's a genius to have formulated this song. I wouldn't have thought the girls to make such a song! :D Like I mentioned before, 願い has a very dreamy atmosphere with these perfect piano undertones. Also, I find the instrumentals to be just as intoxicating as the original songs. :3 Of course, they're not as good with the vocals, but the instrumentals are still wholesome to listen to. ^0^

Overall, this is a killer single. RECOMMENDED!! (I suggest you take it before the downtime later today! :3)

please comment if taking, thanks!^0^

I uploaded this on Sharebee because MF is being weird at the moment. :) Hopefully that's ok though, since there should be four mirrors on Sharebee for everybody.

After Wonder Girls big hit Nobody comes Anybody! |D It's pretty much their ballad version of Nobody with some rap mixed in - a little more of a r&b sound versus the pop style.
