@dabussybatch @jedaltemus That's "From Beginning to End" (Do Começo ao Fim) 2009 Brazilian film. Those two guys in the photo are blood related brothers in the story

[EdWeirdo @iamEdWeirdo]

This album features some great names in terms of the production. Featuring works from the likes of Towa Tei and Satoshi Tomiie, as well as British group Saint Etienne.

[EdWeirdo @iamEdWeirdo]

There's been some recent interest in Japanese R&B, so why not look back at one of the best to do it. Aside from that, this is a great remix album much like their previous one, Crystal Planet. Here's another fun track form the album, Who's That Girl (ORIENTA-RHYTHM "urbanite" MIX)

This is the first full length album by Yuki Ota. It has such a calming aura throughout, but this song in particular just feels soothing yet upbeat

And thus my Frenesi music collection grows💞

(I did also order another copy of the 8in CD single on the international shop just for the postcard) 💖

[EdWeirdo @iamEdWeirdo]

Album: Psychic Cat
Artist: Kalli Ali
2004 🇬🇧
Pop Rock, Electroclash
Track: Home Honey I'm High

From the second studio album by former Sneaker Pimps lead singer, this album encapsulates that early 2000s sensibility that so many artists are chasing nowadays. A lovely little gem 💞

[EdWeirdo @iamEdWeirdo]

@tkn0801 Cipher the Video is unreal. Basically a bunch of MTV music videos stitched together with voices done by the three Japanese VAs they could find that spoke English. And sadly the brothers aren't yaoi for each other, the creator just thought Americans kiss each other on the lips

[EdWeirdo @iamEdWeirdo]

Despite going mostly unused in the film it was made for, it is still a great album, with a mix of vocal tracks and variety of instrumental pieces that evoke such a sense of wonder. Most of the songs that contain vocals also have a very Shibuya-kei sound which I adore💕

[EdWeirdo @iamEdWeirdo]

Album: The Misadventures of Saint Etienne
Artist: Saint Etienne
1999 🇯🇵
Soundtrack, Indie Pop, Downtempo

EP: 月とベンチ
Artist: Wild Flower
1997 🇯🇵
City Pop, Funk
Track: 月とベンチ

I am once again tentatively posting music on this hellish website. This time starting off with a lovely song from one of the last two EPs that this group ever released after their debut album, Mooneater.

[EdWeirdo @iamEdWeirdo]

@chromatican @ladygaga This looks like a worse version of Lady Miss Kier's flower helmet from the music video for Power of Love by Deee-Lite

[EdWeirdo @iamEdWeirdo]

@KennyLauderdal3 I always wondered if that first shot of the Greyhound bus was a nod to the cover art to the Tatsuro Yamashita album "Come Along" that was drawn by Eizen Suzuki

[EdWeirdo @iamEdWeirdo]

@tawogclips This scene always reminded me of Project Exonaut. It had a mecha based on Gumball (and another for Darwin) and it looked basically like this. I wish I could still play that game

@frenesifrenesi サパラン has always been a favorite of mine 💖
