Not to get all livejournal-y, but Last Splash has turned into my album of choice for those moments that I'm feeling really down, not because I find it bouncy and peppy, but because the combination of noise washes and fragile vocals incredibly cathartic.
O-K. I can't tell if this is Jpop or Portland-style electro. I think it's Jpop? Who the hell knows. Just saw this video on the aforementioned Specialten. Superb. More.
