HONDALADY//SNEAKER MON AMOUR–ELECTRONIC DANCE POP!!
I first came across Hondalady while searching through Japanfiles’ electronic music selection. I downloaded they 2009 album, Cassettable, based on the kitchy strength of the title track, which was created using samples from the original Dragon Warrior (Dragon Quest in Japan) on NES (Famicom). While the song was cute, the rest of the album didn’t really grab me and I haven’t listened to them much since. However, I listened to some samples of their newest album, Sneaker Mon Amour, and decided to give it a shot. And I’m glad I did. They melodies here are much stronger than their previous effort, and the production shows a lot of variety.
